prezanon, that might be the worst dating advice I have ever heard.
If a woman does not feel attracted to a man, “hunting” her is not going to suddenly make her change her mind.
Women’s Tears Dampen Men’s Sex Arousal Hormone, Scientists Say
Jan. 6 (Bloomberg) — When women cry, they may be lowering the testosterone in men nearby.
Men were given jars containing either tears collected from women who watched a sad movie, or saline drops that were trickled down the same women’s faces. Though they reported smelling no difference, the men who sniffed tears experienced drops in testosterone and were less likely to find photographs of women attractive than the men who smelled saline, according to Israeli research published today by the journal Science.
Tears produced from emotion are chemically different from those produced to moisturize the eyes, and no nonhuman animals produce them, said Robert R. Provine, a professor at the University of Maryland Baltimore County. Though Provine’s previous research found tears communicate sadness more strongly than facial expressions alone, this is the first evidence that tears’ influence may be more than visual, he said.
“Tears aren’t just something we produce when we’re sad, they’re a message sent to other people,†Provine, who was not involved with the study, said in a telephone interview. “This paper shows that the signaling function of tears can be chemical as well as visual.â€
Tears have long been presumed to halt aggressive behavior, Provine said. The reduction in testosterone observed in the study may begin to explain why, he said.
Disagree with prezanon – please note that she failed to incorporate DH’s advice. The girl has your contact info, hopefully she comes across it on a day she’s ready to use it.
ET- you said it perfectly. And that’s exactly how museums do outreach- by appealing to broader tastes and trying to reach those who don’t know enough about art to like or dislike it. They try to make it sound interesting and fun. But that doesn’t mean once you get there the program is necessarily dumbed down. There’s a difference in how you market a program and the content of the program.

I think JB looks after IJ as a sort of older sister.** All in the PLUSA family!
**before JB gets mad at me, I’m not saying she is older than IJ, just that it seems to me that she looks after him like an older sister would.
I’m glad I don’t date anymore. NSA sex hookups are so much easier.
