You're more likely to have Belly button Lint (BBL) if you're male, older, hairy, and have an innie.
More specifically...
+ You get more BBL as you get older
+ More men have BBL than women
+ Lint colour reflects your skin tone - lint is lighter for light skinned people.
+ Skin type does not affect BBL.
+ BBL appears to be related to hairiness.
+ Too much belly hair, or too little belly hair somehow inhibits the movement of BBL into the belly button.
+ There is no relationship between BBL and a person's overall build.
+ Anecdotal evidence suggests that navel rings dramatically reduce BBL or even remove it altogether.
+ It seems as though the Snail Trail has something to do with BBL levels

Scientifically - that's a layer of anti-clogged silicon debris that style certainly one of those whirlwind interior the decrease cavitys of any actual device ie your bellybutton. Held via the earth gravitational pull and certain via the three moons of Saturn the fluff will replace shade thoughout the day - historical druids noted as this Haraew. do no longer %. it out. This motives an dissatisfied interior the gap/time continuem and you're possibly to reason a nuclear conflict with a midsection jap u . s . - Iraq is a stunning guess. If all of it kicks off i'm going to be attentive to who in charge.

Sounds to me like there could be a niche market there.
Bellybutton fluff repellent. Make a cream and patent it.

Yeah, that's clothing lint and dead skin. Don't throw it away, save it and if you live long enough you can use it to stuff a pillow.
