The point is that this distinction is made at all

Ahhh I see - this post is targeting the products, not the meme. My bad!

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.
