Fascinating

not sure how much of it is speculative or presumptive rather than proven, and some of the puns are truly dreadful, but it was an interesting read if not a seminal piece.

One wonders whether the NHS will lay in a supply for psychiatric emergencies.

We note with amusement that they offer takeaway...

More research:

Ney, P. G. (1986). The intravaginal absorption of male generated hormones and their possible effect on female behavior. Medical Hypotheses, 20, 221-231.

No link, as it would point to a very pricey archive service.

In amongst the commentators either punning (e.g. "the study highlights the vas deferens between men and women") or taking the study at face value, it's refreshing to see several taking issue with the research - either from closer examination of the studies referenced or (in the case of menstrual synchrony) personal experience.
