Male Scent Molecules May Be Compromising Biomedical Research
sciencehabit (1205606) writes "Scientists have found that mice feel 36% less pain when a male researcher is in the room, versus a female researcher. The rodents are also less stressed out. The effect appears to be due to scent molecules that male mammals (including humans, dogs, and cats) have been emitting for eons. The finding could help explain why some labs have trouble replicating the results of others, and it could cause a reevaluation of decades of animal experiments: everything from the effectiveness of experimental drugs to the ability of monkeys to do math. Male odor could even influence human clinical trials."
If by "imtimidating" you meant "sexy", and by "stress" you meant "erections", I'm right there with you, buddy.
This only applies to a small percentage of women.
Women are intimidating and cause stress.
This applies to approximately 100% of women (including the subset of sexy women), so, no, coinreturn had it right.
Beauty is just a light switch away. Best part; in total darkness, I'm as handsome as she is beautiful.
Pardon me miss: Did you know that I look just like Brad Pitt in total darkness?
