Pumpkin Pie increases Male Sex Drive

Posted by samzenpus on from the we're-going-to-need-more-whipped-cream dept.

Dr. Alan Hirsch, Director of Chicago's Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Center, says the key to a man's heart, and other parts, is pumpkin pie. Out of the 40 odors tested in Hirsch's study, a mixture of lavender and pumpkin pie got the biggest rise out of men ages 18 to 64. That particular fragrance was found to increase penile blood flow by an average of 40%. "Maybe the odors acted to reduce anxiety. By reducing anxiety, it acted to remove inhibitions," said Hirsch.

    "Oh, you're a scientist? What do you research?"

    "Well, today I measured penile blood flow of a bunch of guys who were smelling pumpkin pie to compare it to penile blood flow of those who weren't."

    Science fail.

    I believe baby powder was the odor most arousing to women, although you could probably use fresh babies if you don't have any powdered.

    I just use the coffee table. It also encourages the guests to leave quickly.

    Reminds me of this Rorschach test. "What do you see here?" "People having sex." "And this one?" People having sex" "And the next one?" "The same".
