Lol this is so true 😂
Men’s shampoo (or any other shower product) sucks ass. It’s why I started using women’s everything, back at 16, waay before even starting HRT.
Still cis tho :3

    huh, different strokes for different folks i guess. Women’s hygiene stuff is fine, but I don’t really like how weak it is. My current lime/hibiscus flower or whatever flavored shower gel might smell nice, but it wears off within like an hour and I smell sweaty and gross again. But whenever I steal my husband’s generic ⚡blue⚡ shower gel it lasts an entire day (even if I feel like a middle school boy’s locker room). Same with deodorant. My husband got me my own Old Spice stick because I kept stealing his.

      Really? Weak? I mean, I take HRT, so I’m a bit privileged to not smell much at all, lol. I have basically zero testosterone. All it takes it a bit of any kind of soap in the armpits for me and I just don’t smell that day, like…at all, really.

      I guess “men’s” products are kinda stronger. I wouldn’t really know, but I’ve heard it before. It’s funny tho, I just wash my armpits with soap and I don’t smell for at least a day, at all, while my bf uses Old Spice 3in1 (because ofc he does…) and he smells great…but after just an hour, I can smell him again, lol. I have a good nose thanks to estrogen tho.
      I totally get you on the boy’s locker room omfg 😭

      Also, just…weird thought, but men’s deodorant smells…good on men? Old Spice smells fucking amazing on my bf, but I could never imagine smelling like that. I’m weird tho :/
