Uuh that's a very difficult thing.

It's like wearing agressive perfume full of hormomes. It might cause somebody to get an erection but it's still hella uncomfortable and annoying. Not really consensual and i see why it pisses people off.

TIL people get erections from perfume.

People will spend a lot of money if a marketer lies to them enough. It should be noted that scientists don’t recognize any human-arousal pheromones. Only shady websites that wanna sell you overpriced perfume.

yeah it actually did happen to me irl some years ago when we were on a field trip and a girl who had already flirted with me for the past two days suddenly wore a perfume and i think it was that that made it really difficult for me to stay clear-minded. could have also been the flirting though, i'm not sure actually.

it's ok to be gay bro, Internet doesn't judge you well maybe but we don't know you

Right here. Maybe not full blown blue steel, but I get chubby if a woman's smell hits me right.

Yeah, that's really weird. I've never heard of this. But I guess if you just make an association in you brain, then it can be a turn on.
