I would

be very happy to read a summery of someone in NORMAL Englisch about that one
I guess my English isn`t good

enough since I´m not a native speaker...

I am not a chemestry person and

could not really understand the article. My guess is that the pharamone study suggested that the pharamone needs to

be converted via enzynmes and whatever in the other person's biology to become effective. I don't know what the

implications of that is....perhaps we need a secret spray bottle we can spray our target with and she/he would then

convert the pharomone into a sex signal much better? :lovestruc

The study has suggested there

are two courses of pheromone production. One, involving a steroid, produces Androstenol. One, excluding a steroid,

produces Androstenone.

The implications could be far-reaching.
