COPENHAGEN -- New research indicates that parts of the brain that govern fear and anxiety are switched off when a woman is having an orgasm.
In the first study to map brain function during orgasm, scientists from the Netherlands also found that as a woman climaxes, an area of the brain that governs emotional control is also heavily deactivated.

New research indicates that parts of the brain that govern fear and anxiety are switched off when a woman is having an orgasm. They don't say whether this happens to the male brain or the female brain...

It's nice when the part that shuts down is the nag and criticize centre, but for many women it does real damage to the part needed to be a good judge of character.
To: SmithL
The part of a woman's brain that makes out the shopping list and selects the new paint color for the ceiling is switched off about the same time.

I am up to 56 posts and as far as I can tell you are all missing the forest for the trees. In the Netherlands they are studying (And I presume getting funding for) females having orgasms. That's right! Get it now? You spend thousands of dollars trying to impress women. You marry one and spend hundreds of thousands on house, car etc. And maybe, if you cut the grass, clean the garage, take out the garbage, do the dinner dishes,put the kids to bed, watch her shows (Ick, chick TV)and then spend some "cuddle time" you might... assuming you kept track of the lunar tides...just might... get a chance to do some research. These shmoes are showing up, flipping on a lab coat and doing the research eight hours a day. THEN they get to go out to a bar after work and complain about how tough they have it.
In this country we study how cow farts affect the atmosphere. Maybe the Europeans are smart after all.
