Does the smell of deodorant really matter?

Question

So a quick shopping trip to pick up some deorderant and other things. I'm about to pick out deorderant and I've got my boyfriend in tow. I reach for the men's axe (I love the way it smells) I offer him to sniff and he makes this face. As I'm looking another one he says "Oh don't get that one I used to wear that one and it'd be weird". I looked at him "What do you mean weird" and his response is "Oh well cause you'd smell mainly and your not a dude" "Oh so should got some Summer Berry (it's got these little strawberries on it)" and he's like "Yeah you should" so I turned got the axe I liked and told him "Well I'm getting this just to spite you". Fast forward and we're home and he's making fun of me cause I have it on and now I'm so mainly and shit. I got so piss I straight out said "I'm really not okay with you teasing me and shit like I'm sorry the way my arm pits smell makes you question your manculenity. 
Why should somethings as stupid as deoderant smell really matter? Also ladies as your man or your lady made a stick about this? Give me your opinion does it really matter?

Answer

I think your spelling bothers me more than any way you could smell does.

Answer

"The fuck we have gendered deodorants for? I'm a grown ass man. If I wanna smell like cocoa butter kiss I will"

Answer

I love the scent of men's deodorant and cologne, I even have a little men's cologne collection for myself (not the super strong stuff that makes me wanna throw my panties at him, just the more subtle ones that could pass as unisex) but I think there's a time and place for it, as much as I love the scent, I don't usually wear them when I'm with an SO or fwb (unless he's cool with it) because he's not into it. Women's perfume turns him on, not men's cologne. I'm sure you'd feel the same way if he was to use a feminine perfume, it might not be a big deal but you're more turned on by the cologne or deodorant he uses.

Answer

I don't really like the smell of female deodorant, I prefer the guy stuff (lynx, adidas, etc.)

Answer

I think he was just being fun with you and teasing. It doesn't sound like he meant it in a hurtful way.

Answer

He's acting immature about it. If you like the smell you should wear it if you want. I started wearing men's deodorant over a year ago because women's deodorant sucks, and my partner doesn't make a stink about it (pun totally intended). If it bugs him so much, just straight up don't wear deodorant around him at all, and see how he feels about your stinky pits then.

Answer

Girl it is not a big deal. Hell just laugh it off. Why did u buy it just for him to say somethin about it if u knew he didnt like the smell?

Answer

In the Summer, my husband buys multiple deodorants because I'll use his. They work better. My husband did say once during sex to put my arms down because the smell was awkward, but other than that, he doesn't care! (I do like my Avon, roll on deodorant in vanilla, but men's deodorant works wonders)

Answer

My husband and I use the same kind of men's deodorant. He's just immature lol.

Answer

If you like the way it smells the wear it just not around him. I'm sure you wouldn't want him to wear something around you that you don't particularly like the smell of. As for the teasing part just brush it off because if he bathes with something fruity you'll probably do the same.
