Also because when you think about women you’re desperate for any attraction at all and trying to force it, instead of letting it come naturally without overthinking everything. With men you are really anxious about liking them and so you read the panic as arousal.

Actually not to reassure you but yes it can. The system that controls anxiety is the same one that controls arousal. It is very difficult to truly tell the difference when you’re having an episode. For that reason it could be true attraction or maybe not. You just gotta accept the uncertainty.
