Funny how that works... but it’s true for me as well!

Pheromones are not body order, some women have it some don't, pheromone is what makes you want to jump an ugly woman, it is a truly wonderful thing. Perfume is an attempt by man to duplicate the effect.

I wonder if the problem with sodomites lies in their brain’s olfactory center?

I have always thought smell and sound were the biggest attractions for a woman. A man with a nice voice and that smells nice. There was a blog entry I wrote that I spoke of this. No. I'm not going to link it. I'm not a pimp. But, I will quote the relevant parts, for your Friday afternoon amusement :)

" Even if average musclebound lunkhead looks good, if he smells like a sewer and/or has a voice like Justin Bieber, any female over the age of 12 isn’t going to grasp much interest.

But, if he has a voice like Sean Connery or Sam Elliot….. Especially Sam Elliot. Well, there’s a voice that can tell me a bedtime story any night.

Where was I? Oh, yes. Let’s not forget scent. The natural scent of a man is something that gives me chills. Sometimes it can be enhanced a little with cologne or oils. Not motor oil, mind you. Although, a man who is eye-catching and has just fixed your car is quite an attraction.

There are many different scents on the market. Some of them make a lady want to snuggle. Others are very yummy, indeed.

Now, Old Spice. Highly NOT recommended. I don’t care if it gives you hallucinations of being on a boat. It’s called OLD Spice and smells like you’re covering up for the smell of the mothballs from your monthly ventures in leisure suit wearing."

“Lesbians Respond Differently to ‘Human Pheromones,’ Study Says.” is probably the purpose of this study—to show that lesbians are genetically different from other women.

And if that is a legitimate interpretation of the data, then the validity of that conclusion is extremely significant.

Good fragrances meld with each individual. The scent can be extremely different. Usually for the best. Nothing better than a memory of a fragrance, whether it be sexual or just a mere introduction to an interesting member of the opposite sex. Even a member of the same sex. Try to remember your first boss’ office for instance, or a meeting with a coworker. If you have a good smell, you’ll remember everything.

Unfortunately, bad fragrances will do the opposite. They just stink differently. This is a first grade opine but mine never the less.

with humans, we think chemosensation is not really used," said study leader Wen Zhou, a psychologist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing.

Idiot chinaman. Any man who has experienced a whiff of that certain fragrance from long ago knows this guy is a stupid toad.

Most subhuman primates have large olfactory lobes, and in subprimates it often is the largest sensorimotor lobe of the brain. Even creatures like buzzards have a highly developed sense of smell.

Nice thought. It is amazing how a smell can affect us. I used to work in a factory and one morning one of the bosses walked by me - he was smoking a pipe. Instantly the particular mix he was smoking took me back to sitting on my Grandad’s knee. I had not seen my Grandfather since I was six and was about 25 at the time this happened - amazing! Brought me to tears!

Amazing isn’t it?

I can remember an entire day at my Uncle’s when I was about 7 now that you now that you mentioned your Grandfather’s pipe. He smoked a pipe too. It was a great day at his home on a lake and many of my cousins were there. I even remember his old Basset Hound, Clarence. Thanks for the memories.
