Nice catch, PHP87
Here ya go, truth

Thorne, F., Neave, N., & Scholey, A. (2000). Love is in the air? Effects of pheromones, oral contraceptive use and menstrual
cycle phase on attraction. Proceedings of the British Psychological Society, 8 (2): 49-50.

Unfortunately, this publication is not indexed on Medline, which makes both the abstract and the paper difficult to get.

OF course the mainstream media need to actually mention the pheromones more directly instead of skirting around the issue but that said they are doing a great job and you know what everyone all those spammers that sell the ripoff products are actually only encouraging people to learn more about it and when they hear there is real stuff around and that they have been ripped off and they go in search of more information hence the forum. ALso james said in one post that within the next couple of years and even now ive noticed that the mainstream perfume houses (joop brute and many others) and a lot of colonge makers are going to start putting pheros (androgens) into their products which with economies of scale should make the stuff cheaper for everyone concerned as it can be made cheaper and the information will be out there and that will increase popularity we will lose our edge though.

I believe the science. I just can’t stand having that stuff in my pits.

Hate loosing the edge, and I\'m also concerned that it may have negative health effects if a significant portion of the population walks around in it most of the time, as I\'m sure they will in a few years time. I\'ve only told my brother and my two closest friends about this, and they are all sworn to secresy. If you guys want to keep an edge with women and the other effects for a bit longer, don\'t tell anyone about pheromones.

True, we may lose an edge. But, perhaps, women would become more sexual creatures in general with all the phero in environment. An overall benefit to men...

Women are quite sexual creatures already, although concealing it for various reasons, some being culture-related. In my mind the main difference between men and women is that men are less picky concerning casual sex. Women want sex just as much, but they want it from the ones they want it with, hence the need for an edge.

To late the business community will determine what happens with pheros also the spammers will determine how much exposure they get although it looks like the australian government is cutting down on spammers a good thing although their workers (customs) nick phero products via EMS because they are corrupt bastards, but if spammers are to be cut out it will have to be a sustained and long effort and everything must be taken care of. Looks like science is still looking past pheros mostly because they are still based on visual systems but they are getting the publicity on pheros out which is a good thing.
One interesting thing is that women might take some incitive if pheros are out in asking men out and stop being so \"waiting\" and say i wanna bonk you verbalising but emotinons as normal will come into it. Just respect em.
