Is it normal for the smell of strangers' poop to traumatize you

Is it normal to have emotional problems after walking into a Starbucks single person restroom that a woman had just left, that reeked strongly of her shit? I made eye contact with her as she walked out, then had to stand there urinating for a minute breathing in her nastiness. It messed up my brain cause I had nightmares after that and the smell memory comes up randomly where I can literally smell the odor.

    Traumatized? No, that's not normal. No one likes the smell but life stinks. She probably looked at you because she was aware how bad it was. She probably felt much better after relieving herself but may also be suffering in silence. Pit yourself in her shoes. Imagine creating that smell and to feel the trauma your guts must be in to create such a smell. And then to have a stranger witness that experience.

    Do you typically react strongly to foul smells?

    It was an empowering feminist turd. Women can destroy the bathroom just as badly.

      The way you put things is hilarious. It would take you to come up with something like empowering feminist turd.

      If anything women can do more damage, 3 holes to spew from.

    • Why did she look me right in the face as she left? Is there no shame in society anymore?

    Maybe the person who stunk up the toilet was eating chitlins earlier in the day?

    Some people are more sensitive to certain smells. Maybe you're more sensitive to poop smells.

    At least that woman went to the toilet to drop a banging deuce, instead of crapping herself in public.

    I wish I could curse people who have harmed me in the past with that sort of olfactory trauma.
