I have this, too - found out when I started doing astronomy and looking in the sky all the time. I also have a rarer one: the cough-ear reflex, which affects something like 2%. I involuntarily cough when I put in earplugs. The human body is weird!

That seems pretty reasonable/possibly explainable though. Putting eaebuds in deep I can feel a light gag reflex, ears and back of the throat are closely connected.

That's interesting if so, as I have some sensoneural hearing loss in inner ear, and had a period in past where I felt like was choking or some unexplained swallowing problems. Thought I was going bonkers when they couldn't find a problem.
