    Wait I love the concept of this community and am glad it migrated over, but I have to disagree with this one! Men’s deodorant really does have insane names from the top brands. These are all real names of Old Spice men’s deodorant:

    • Rock
    • Wolfthorn
    • Nightpanther
    • Krakengärd
    • Bearglove
    • Elklord
    • Mambaking
    • Eaglefangs
    • Sharkhammer

        Nobody is forcing us to buy gendered deo… For some reason sheep do it on their own.

        There are non gendered versions out there. For example arm and hammer unscnted… Zero gendering and cheapest option.

          I think it’s the fact that scents are gendered in the first place, not that there aren’t un-gendered options.

          That is true no one is forcing any of us to buy them, nor are they forcing us to obey those gender rules, I say buy whatever you think smells nice, don’t worry too much about the gender targeting of the product, it’s meaningless.

      This is a great point. Or can’t forget that Busch makes a Busch lite soap now. Men’s scents are just fucking ridiculous. Women’s scents will at least vaguely describe what you’re going to smell, men’s scents are named by huffing gas and toluene for 12 hours and coming up with cool words to put into the name generator
