    I remember one time I ran out of deodorant and had to use my wife’s. The whole day at work every now and again I’d catch a whiff of myself and my lizard brain would shriek WOMAN!!! until I realised it was just me.

      Probably partially had to do with it being your wife’s, not just women’s. Scent is supposedly closely tied to memory, so your brain was probably tying it to her not women in general
