I'm 5'11", wear a size 11 shoe and have very long arms, so I sometimes shop in the men's dept for pajamas, shoes, sweats, jackets, socks. I also use a men's razor and have thought about buying men's deodorant, because mine hasn't been working well. I still look like a girl...well pretty much. ;-)

Have never tried the deodorant, but I use men's razors and shave gel. I totally agree with getting razors from dollar shave club. Only 8 bucks a month and my husband, 16 year old son, and I are set for blades.

Razors definitely. Women's razors are foofy and crappy. I wear men's watches and I have a secret love for men's accessories--shoes, bags, jewelry--but so far don't wear them.

Not so much the men's department, but I do shop in the boys department sometimes. I am only 5'1" and clothes in the men's department would be too long. Then again, pretty much everything in the women's department is too long too.

My girls and I prefer men's socks. They have thicker soles and are more comfortable.

I like boys'/mens' socks, too, especially in the winter.
DH & I use the same no fragrance added body wash, but that actually comes from the "ladies" aisle. And I use deodorant from the mens' aisle sometimes.

I use the razor blades from The Dollar Shave club. So much cheaper. I ordered an additional handle and we share 4 blades a month.

Love men's deodorant and cologne so much more than women's! I found that women's antiperspirant/deodorant works better for me (much stronger than men's) but I love the way men's deodorant smells (Irish Spring!). So I just put it on on top of women's antiperspirant.
I also love men's cologne! I don't like perfume because it is too strong for me. But I love Paul Sebastian, Polo, etc. that my husband wears! He loves to pull the cologne "packets" from his magazines to see which I like best.

I use men's AP, razors, sweats, t-shirts, and I have a funny story about underpants! Recently I was having a problem with infected hair follicles in my girly parts and went to see the Dr. He said to use anti-bacterial soap and to find panties that had a wider gusset (crotch - I didn't know it was called a gusset...) with little to no elastic in the leg openings. So, me being the Google Queen, Googled "panties with wide crotch". Here's the website I came up with: Wide Gusset Panties Who knew there was so much info on wide gusset panties for the manlier sex? I laughed at the time (and yes, I found some that are probably the least sexy and most comfortable panties I've ever worn) and I laughed just now because it seems funny to add a girl thing that guys like to our guy things that girls like thread.

I think a suoervisor at work uses men's deodorant. Her choice I realize, but it doesn't smell good on her.

I rotate deodorants. One is Old Spice. I have some clothes from the boys' department, especially the stuff I wear camping. Most of my sweatshirts and flannel shirts are boys' sized, as is my rain coat.

Deodorant, shave cream, razors, socks--really don't care if they are for men or wome, I just buy whatever is cheaper or on sale.
I also where a lot of men's shoes. I were an 11wide in women's, and I find that men's New Balance fit me better than anything else.

Nice tip on the boys socks, I never thought to try them or compare prices. Once upon a time I used men's razors because they gave so much closer of a shave, but I've found a generic at Walmart that does a good job for less $ than most of the men's versions. Its funny that so many use men's deodorant. STBX and one of his friends, my friend's DH, both use Degree Shower Clean for women because they swear it works better. I just use Suave deodorant, it works and I think its already about the cheapest thing you can buy.

I never noticed about the AP/Deodorant, but I am going to check it out. At Target they are on different aisles, I wonder if that's so we don't notice the price difference? They used to be on the same aisle at the Target here, same with the razors. Now it is separated between Men's stuff and Women's stuff. When they were together I never noticed the price difference. But I did with the razors. Girl razors are super expensive compared to guy razors.

I wear men's socks because my feet are big. None of the stores seem to carry socks bigger than size 8 to 10, which do not fit shoe sizes 8 to 10. So, in order to keep my toes from poking through, I buy men's socks.

Men's razors and deodorant here. Before wide width sneakers for women became common I used to wear boy's sneakers.

I do often use men's razors, shave gel/cream...... I have used men's socks before (why are they so much warmer and thicker than women's?!)
I haven't tried using men's deodorant. I fear that I would smell like a man.

Razors! DH joined the Dollar Shave Club and was happy with the quality/price, so I signed up too. Much better than paying $14 for a box of four!

So, in order to keep my toes from poking through, I buy men's socks. I wear a size 10 and found recently there are larger women socks 11-13. I find those fit better than going to guys which seems to fit to big. I am right at a 10 so sometimes I go with the 11-13 woman's socks, depending on style.

One time I ran out of deodorant and used DH's. All day long I got compliments from male co-workers about how good I smelled that day. LOL.b
