the scent of eros makers

have a chapter in his book about how tanning can lead to a powerful aphrodisiac. Does anyone have any idea what the

hell does that mean

As I told a friend recently...

Tanning makes just about anyone look better if it's done right. That should qualify it as an aphrodesiac IMHO.

Tan skin is attractive because

sunlight increases Vitamin D production, which increases testosterone levels. Peter Frost's work (look on PubMed)

showed that women prefer men with darker skin--just as a lioness prefers a lion with a darker mane. Both are visual

signs of higher testosterone, and thus better reproductive fitness. But the visual response is conditioned by

olfactory cues that alter hormone levels in women--like LH and

estrogen.
