Just had to post this...........

I laughed my socks off when I read this........

Quote, from my Natural Solutions to PMS book,

'It has been suggested that regular sex can help to normalise irregular cycles, and reduce PMS symptons. American reproductive biologist Winnifred Cuttler says that the effect is due to male pheromones (smells), which women inhale from their partner when they are naked. Women with short or long cycles took part in the test, and 85% of them returned to a regular 28-30 day menstrual cycle after smelling their partners armpits nightly for 3 months.
Note, it has to be the same man's armpits that you are sniffing regularly - apparently, multiple pheromones don't have the same normalising effect !!!!!!!'

Mmmm, Clare, what were you saying about Kaftans and chanting ?????? LOL :7

When I read this, I flashed back to a photo I once saw of a professional deodorant tester: her job was to smell the armpits of various test subjects to see how much odor there was. I suppose I'd be good at this because I've got a very good sense of smell (good when around flowers, bad when around poo), but I'm not ready to quit my teaching job quite yet.

Anna,

That is one of the funniest things I have ever heard. Does that mean that my husband should refrain from showering or washing his armpits for a while so that I can smell them if I have a longer cycle?

hmmmmmm; I wonder what he would think about that - do the pheromones multiply if he does physical work all day (he is a roofer) and sweats profusely in the armpit area? hey. these are legitimate questions.

And how many women smell the armpits anyway? Hee- Hee!

This is a great and funny post, I needed a good laugh today.

Thanks,

Cheryl

Cheryl, I don't believe that the article said your cycles would be longer, just more regular. They (the family) are wondering what I am laughing at all alone upstairs.

So who is going to start the Armpit Weekly Check in. All those participating can graph their cycles and smell armpits nightly and report each Monday. Sorry, I am already commiting to the ecto check in so I'll have to pass on this one.

Thanks Anna....ROTF LOL
