It's not the levels of discomfort that I'm sceptical of. Rather whether you actually did that to yourself and, to be quite frank, whether you are a man at all and if you are a man if you're on this sub for the right reasons.

You see pepperspraying not just your own face but then also your genitals is something the Jackass crew, or even the Dirty Sanchez boys, would probably take a rain check on. And even if they did do it they'd be doing it for laughs, money or both. So their motivations are understandable, if not always agreeable to everyone. But you seem to have just knowingly harmed your face, with a substance you knew to be out of date and therefore potentially dangerous, for absolutely no reason at all. The explanation you gave as to why you then did that to your genitals too is utterly baffling to me. Because, as a man, I can say for a certainty that men DO NOT think about their penises all the time.... if we rarely ever do. We think about sex a fair bit more than women it's true, and there's nothing wrong with that, but we don't really have much thought towards our own genitals. Why would our own genitals be the focus of our attention? And we most certainly don't think to harm them on a whim... unless of course the man has a fetish.

Seriously, what kind of man would go:

"oh god! Pepperspraying my face really hurt' Suppose I should do it to my penis as well because I'm a man and men always think about their penises. DUH!"

I would hate to know what happens when you feel you need a shave.

This opinion you have of men is such a gross caricature it's clearly written to conform to a very radical and ignorant set of prejudices. Which leads me to speculate whether you're a man at all, since you have some very bizarre ideas of how men think about their bodies, or if you are in fact a man whether you're engaging in some sort of humiliation fetish. I think the later is more likely to be honest. This reads more like what a man imagining what he thinks rad fems want to hear rather than what rad fems actually think. But then again you did get quite a lot of upvotes so maybe this is the kind of stuff they like to hear and believe. So if you are a fetishist it seems you've hit gold, buddy.

And tbf there's nothing wrong with having a fetish, as long as consent is part of your desires (otherwise get help). But I do think there's a time and a place for it and I don't think it's here and now... but then again maybe I'm wrong. As I said before, the ladies here seem to like what you have to say so as long as everyone's happy with the arrangement then you lot just go on being your best selves. Though the irony of the rad fems facilitating a male fetish is just too priceless.
