Facts of life, stages.....

It's true. For example did you know that there are studies that show women who
live together intimately (dorms, for example) eventually have their monthly cycles
synchronize? It's hard for me to understand how that can happen, but apparently it
does.


Thanks for that voice of reason!

I've read about that same phenemenon. I've also read about studies where certain scents of women were sprayed (or put, or something) under the noses of both men and women, and they reacted differently depending on what part of the month the women the scents were taken from were in. It was a while ago, so I don't remember the details, but I was struck by it.

Yes, we like to think of ourselves as these rational beings, almost computers but made of flesh instead of wires and transistors. But it isn't true. We are still very close to our animal roots in a lot of ways.
