Concealed ovulation is consistently used by psychologists to shift the focus from the influence of
pheromones and hormones on behavior to a focus on visual stimuli and conscious choice. Here is another article that
integrates the biology and psychology of mate signaling and mate choice.
"... Haselton and colleagues said
their findings disproved the conventional wisdom that women are unique among animals in concealing, even from
themselves, when they are most
fertile."

Excerpt from the journal article preprint (i.e., proof copy).
Martie G. Haselton et al., Ovulatory
shifts in human female ornamentation: Near ovulation, women dress to impress, Hormones and Behavior (2006),
doi:10.1016/j.yhbeh.2006.07.007
"...our results appear to provide strong objective evidence of changes in
women's overt, observable behaviors associated with ovulation. In contrast to subtle changes in facial
appearance... and body scents... variation in women's selfgrooming and ornamentation behaviors are perhaps the
most readily available cues to ovulation and associated shifts in female motivation available to male partners. They
may therefore be responsible, in part, for changes in relationship dynamics across the cycle, such as ovulatory
increases in men's mate retention efforts.... The ornamentation effect is one of the most striking pieces of
evidence that ovulation in humans is not fully concealed."

you are posting very nice pheromone
research articles.
would you post articles concerning to the affect of pheromones on various races??,
i can't
seem to find relevant information on the
net.

There are no articles
that I know about. When I have mentioned the topic it has been in conjunction with various readings from books (with
the exception of one magazine "National Geographic"). Commenting on the differences and citing others is much safer
than having such comments attributed to me--eventually, like others who comment about racial differences in
anything, I'd get branded as racist.

SCIENTISTS are analysing love
and sexual attraction to identify what makes us fall for
someone.

Interesting article that tries
to summerize what causes attraction action...

You can't please everybody, Signor
JVK, but you know that. Besides, and most IMPORTANTLY ... it would be thoughts/info coming from an expert and
respected racist. :box: :thumbsup: :lol: :run:

Expertise is good; respect is good. For a good example of an expert and respected racist,
google J. Phillipe Rushton. Even he did not want to delve into the potential controversy of racial differences in
pheromones--after a conversation I had with him during a 1995 symposium. A wise decision on his part, I
think.
