Yep. It\'sa good thing the effects of mones aren\'t too dramatic, or they would probably be banned.
The daterape drug analagy is interesting, cause mones appear to work unconsciously - the target\'s brain/hormone level is triggered to view the sender as more attractive, without consciously knowing whats going on. The pheromone circuit(s) in the brain appear to bypass the consciousness centers. In the sense that the target does not know what is being done to her body, it\'s like slipping someone a mickey in her drink. The pheros are transmitted through the air to the target where they have their effect on her brain, without her knowledge.
That makes pheros different from makeup, boobjobs, etc. Those enhancements are on display for all to see - the conscious brain receives those signals and processes the info. If I see a beautiful fixed up woman I can consciously analyze it - what would she look like WITHOUT makeup, those boobs might be fake, etc. If pheros work like science says, they are signals being sent to the unconscious brain of the target - the target doesn\'t know what\'s happening. Same as someone being unknowingly slipped a drug, in that regard.
