A recent front page story in the Los Angeles Times (on obviously the slowest news day since 1954) claims that the smell of a woman’s tears can turn off a guy to her sexually. This scientific study put a group of women in a room, showed videos of the Brad Pitt wedding or something, and as they all wept uncontrollably, collected their tears. Then horny guys were asked to smell the tears and their libidos dropped precipitously.
Who even thinks to do such a study first of all? And why? But aside from that…
Neuroscientists from the Weizmann Institute of Science claim that the fifty men in the control group experienced a drop in testosterone of 13%.
Now here’s my problem: 13%? For guys? That’s nothing. At best that’s maybe one more drink.
So the Levine Institute set about exploring this further. For a guy to be sufficiently turned off to where he doesn’t want to have sex with a woman he was previously attracted to, testosterone levels must drop 87.3%.
Here are other factors that dampen a man’s sex drive along with the percentage of how much:
She has a swastika tattoo – 7%
She wants to play her Barry Manilow mix tape during – 3%
She calls out your business partner’s name – 5%
She wants to do it at church during Christmas Mass – 2%
She says you’re smaller than her last boyfriend – 6%
She says you’re smaller than the guy an hour ago – 7%
She has 350 cats – 4%
She has a testicle collection – 8%
She has hairier legs than you – 8%
She wants to do a credit check on you first – 1%
She’s in desperate need of an exorcist – 4%
She's in desperate need of exercise -- 5%
She was a champion on FEAR FACTOR – 4%
She has to ask her stuffed animals if it’s okay to sleep with you – 1%
She wants to turn the lights out when you take your clothes off – 2%
She was once married to Marilyn Manson – 8%
She wants to check her email during – 1%
She wants to smoke during – 2%
She wants to read my blog during – 60%
She’s Orthodox and only wants to do it through a hole in a sheet – 5%
Her biker husband is in the next room – 4%
She’s a suspected serial killer -- 7% at 8 PM, 1 % at 1 AM
She doesn’t believe in birth control – 45% at 8 PM. 0% at 1 AM
She’s dead – 73.2%
She’s Ann Coulter – 93.8%
I expect at least Nobel recognition for this vital study.
