Moe: Who's your favorite advertiser on newsmax.com?

Mine is the Athena Institute, which sells pheromones, a mysterious substance that, when added to perfume or after shave lotion, drives the opposite sex bonkers!

(I'm a little old for such tomfoolery anymore, but you might be a different story.)

*********************************************************
From the Athena Institute's web site (linked to from its advertisement with newsmax.com):

"In double-blind studies of 20 mature young women, nine received placebo and eleven received female essence (pheromones) randomly assigned by a technician and rubbed on the upper lip under the nose three times a week for 12 to 14 weeks.

"Within the 12 to 14 weeks of this study, a statistically significant and substantial increase in the tendency to show weekly sexual behavior was noted among the experimental (pheromone) group. There was no increase in the sexual behavior frequency in the placebo group.

"Female essence may operate by increasing the desire for sexual contact, making recipients more receptive to the advances of male partners, or by making them more sexually attractive to their male partners."
