Something in the air tonight

 

Ever wonder how it's possible for women to get pregnant without knowing tracking when to make themselves available and open to the prospect? 

It appears that the nose knows, provided the nose is that of the prospective pregnancy partner, aka baby daddy. 

Female Body Odor During Ovulation Alters Male Behavior

Ovulation-linked body odors may boost male attraction ratings and reduce stress.

" “We identified three body odor components that increased during women’s ovulatory periods. When men sniffed a mix of those compounds and a model armpit odor, they reported those samples as less unpleasant, and accompanying images of women as more attractive and more feminine,” said Professor Kazushige Touhara. “Furthermore, those compounds were found to relax the male subjects, compared to a control, and even suppressed the increase in the amount of amylase (a stress biomarker) in their saliva. These results suggest that body odor may in some way contribute to communication between men and women.”
So, if you're feeling relaxed, the lady you're with seems really hot, and she's amorous, if you aren't ready to procreate for progeny, use protection.

And this picture would be rated more attractive by almost anybody.  Technically, she's nice and clean and her armpits are providing stimulative attractants. But I don't think it matters in this case.


Wow, I was so distracted and relaxed that I almost forgot the reference.
