All this time you thought it was sculpted muscles, dazzling smiles and fast cars that were surefire babe magnets. Well have we got news for you. What really drives women wild are naturally occurring body chemicals called pheromones. Actually they work the same way to drive men wild, but the male and female pheromones are chemically different.

The name pheromone comes from two Greek words pheran (to transfer) and horman (to excite). According to Dr. Winnifred Cutler, pheromones are “substances excreted by an animal that affect the reproductive behavior of another same-species animal acting at a distance.” Since 1870 when the French naturalist Jean-Henri Fabre discovered male moths flying from miles away to visit a female moth caged in his lab, scientists have known about and documented the effects of pheromones on mating in insect and animal species. For example male cockroaches go wild when exposed to a glass rod covered with female cockroach pheromones, and attempt to mate with it! A randy boar opens his mouth and puffs out a breath laden with pheromones that freeze a sow in heat, ready for mounting. It wasn’t until 1986, however that Dr. Cutler, director of Pennsylvania’s Athena Intstitute, proved the existence of human pheromones and began to document their effects.

In humans, pheromones are activated at puberty. Both men and women produce varying amounts of “male” pheromones: androstenone and androstenol, only women secrete the “female” pheromone copulins. Produced by the apocrine glands in the armpit and around the genitals pheromones send signals that are picked up by the vemeronasal organ (VNO), just inside the nose. The VNO passes these messages on to the limbic part of the brain which governs the most basic human sensations, like joy, anger, love, hate and sexual arousal.

While we aren’t consciously aware of another person’s pheromones, we can’t “smell” them in the traditional sense, they do have a major impact on us. They ignite the sex drive, increase fertility and help regulate women’s menstrual cycles.

For her early studies Dr. Cutler gathered sweat from the armpits of healthy women and men in their 20s, removed the bacteria and odor and used the extract. Because it’s much too costly to collect and process human pheromones for sale, she and her team have produced laboratory equivalents. Since then controlled studies by Dr. Cutler and other organizations around the world have shown some amazing results.

In a double blind experiment with young women 36 percent of those exposed to pheromones had sex weekly during the first three weeks of the study. Of those receiving a placebo only 11 percent had weekly sex. By the end of the study, 14 weeks, 73 percent of the pheromone users were having sex every week, while those on the placebo stayed at 11 percent.
In another of Dr. Cutler’s control groups 38 men were given either a pheromone-alcohol solution to add to their regular cologne or a straight alcohol solution. None knew which they had been given. After 8 weeks of wearing the cologne 47% of the pheromone users reported that they had more sexual intercourse, compared with only 9.5% of those with the placebo.
There have been a few unusual tests illustrating the effects of the male pheromone androstenone on women. For one study, a single chair in a dentist’s reception area was sprayed with androstenone, all the others were left untouched. It was observed that women most often sat in the chair treated with the pheromone. Another test involved three attached pay telephone booths. Again one of the three phones was sprayed with androstenone and more women used the treated phone than the other two.

The Australian organization, Bennett Research, conducted a survey of 306 men using pheromones. Ninety percent of them claimed that the product had increased their attractiveness to women. Increased response from women was measured by:

• Making conversation – 61%

• Starting up a conversation – 52%

• Expressing an interest in the man – 43%

• Being responsive to him – 40%

• Paying unsolicited compliments – 36%

• Overt flirting – 34%

A significant measure was a big increase in physical response by women – brushing against the pheromone wearers (31%), touching them (30%), becoming sexually excited (18%), expressing a desire for sex (17%), and actually having sex with them (16%).

One survey participant described his experience: “One night in a bar a woman walked past me and looked at me. The second time she walked past she came straight to me, said hello, started talking to me and I was very surprised when she grabbed hold of my hands and gave me a kiss on the lips…”

It’s not just sexual attraction that appears to be boosted by wearing pheromones. Users of pheromone products report that people generally pay more attention to them, listen more when they speak, and are friendlier in social situations. Pheromones seem to affect people’s general impressions and assessments. In one clinical study participants wearing surgical masks were shown photographs of buildings, trees, animals, women and men. Their task was to assess each according to impressions of friendly/unfriendly, aggressive/passive, attractive/unattractive and so on. The purpose of the test, they were told, was to examine how stress related to wearing a surgical mask affected decision-making. Participants were tested twice, with a two-week interval between sessions. For one of the tests small quantities of pheromones were sprayed on the mask, without the participants’ knowledge. With the added pheromone there was no noticeable difference in the study group’s impressions of trees and buildings. Animals were considered slightly more aggressive. Most stunning however was the difference in assessments of people, both women and men were considered to be more friendly, sensitive, intelligent, attractive, confident and good.

It’s no wonder then that people are trying pheromone products not simply for sexual attraction, but to give themselves a competitive edge. Salespersons are wearing them to boost their sales, job applicants are using them to create a favourable impression and social butterflies are spraying them on to increase their party invites.

As you can well imagine a whole crop of pheromone products has hit the market with differing formulas for both men and women. Most are made of laboratory synthesized versions of male and female hormones, and as is the case with most anything you get what you pay for. It appears that the more pheromones contained in the product the more money you’ll pay. Some of the top selling brands are more than $100 for a sixth of an ounce, but the concentration of pheromones is such that that sixth of an ounce will last you a long time.

There are scented and unscented versions. Unscented can be added to your regular cologne or aftershave. You may want to experiment with applying pheromones to your clothes as well as to your skin. Both methods have different effects. Due to body heat pheromones sprayed on skin evaporate quickly putting them into action right away, the “instant attractor”. The downside is that the active ingredients are used up just as fast. Sweat and surface bacteria also tend to break down and wash away pheromones on the skin. Spraying unscented products on clothing gives a slower acting but much longer lasting effect. It may in fact last longer than you want, requiring dry cleaning or several launderings to remove, and some delicate fabrics may not take kindly to a spray-on product at all. Some folks go for the double whammy with a combo of scented pheromone on the skin and unscented on the clothes.

By now, you may be wondering how you can get your hands on some of this liquid sexual magnet. We have links to many of these products on our Pheromones web page: tantra-sex.com/ep6.html#lure It is not likely you will find any of these products in retail stores, not yet. You will have to order them on the Internet and have them delivered by mail. At our web site, you will also find additional scientific studies about pheromones in case you need more convincing that they work. By the way, both Al and Pala have used pheromones and they work for us. Al added the unscented variety to one of his musk colognes. Right after that Pala not only started hugging and kissing him more frequently, but she started telling everyone how much she loved that cologne—she had never mentioned it before!

Here’s a look at a few of the pheromone products available:

• Androstenone Pheromone Concentrate, for men an androstenone only oil-based formula. Scented.

• Athena 10X for men and Athena 10:13 for women – by none other than Dr. Cutler herself. The formula is a closely guarded secret

• DateMate 2000 for men with androstenone and androstenol. DateMate FM for women with androstenone, androstenol and copulins. Unscented 15 ml. spray.

• Primal Instinct for men only, contains 5 mg of androstenone per 10 ml bottle. This baby will last you a long time! Scented.

• Realm, men’s and women’s formulas. Scented. Contains .05% androstenone by volume.

• Xcite wipes, foil wrapped moist towlettes impregnanted with pheromones, easy to carry and quick to spread on the body. Scented.

Everyday new “pheromone” products are being touted on the market. How do you know you’re going to get the real thing and not just an ineffective cologne with a lot of hype and no results ? Well, when buying a pheromone product you should ask yourself these questions:

1. Is there a money back guarantee? Most of the reputable brands offer this.

2. Does the product information clearly indicate that pheromones are present, what type they are and in what quantity? There are different mixtures, but generally look for androstenone, androstenol, and for women – copulins

3. Do the results promised sound absolutely too good to be true? They probably are.

There is one similarity with regular perfume, it seems that various pheromone formulas can react differently with each individual. So you may want to experiment with a few types.

When a couple is together for quite a while, let say about 2 – 3 years, the passion, love and connection in the bedroom will tend to drop, or even disappear. Boredom will start to kick in, and your lover will feel that making love with you is not that enjoyable anymore.

Therefore, it is extremely important for you to be constantly thinking of new ideas to spice up your love making, no matter how long you have been together with your lover. Do not take it for granted and assume that just because she loves you, she will not be bored with your same old sex techniques in the bedroom.

Let me just share with you some of the tips to spice up your love making sessions with your lover:

1. Fulfill each others fantasy. Everyone has its own sexual fantasy, and it is important for you to find out what is hers. Encourage her to tell you what her sexual fantasy is, and remember to tell her yours too. Then go out and buy all the necessary costumes or items that can fulfill your lover fantasy. Surprise her by dressing up the costumes and enjoy the fulfillment of a life-long fantasy.

2. Set up a romantic and relaxed ambience for sex. Spend some time to decorate your bedroom with things such as scented candles. Play some slow and romantic music where both of you can have a slow dance before having a good sexual ride later.

3. Always look for new “tricks”. I cannot stress enough the importance of continuous learning. Read books and any resources that you can get your hands on, which will teach you new techniques. From these resources, you can also know how to fine tune your existing techniques so as to satisfy your lover more.

Do not just let your sex life go into a downward spiral. Always bear in mind that no matter how long you and your lover have been together, it is always necessary to spice up your love making time to time.

Your online dating personals are your first point of contact with future friends and love interests so it’s important you make them count! Online dating has now become so competitive that you often have only a few seconds to catch your potential mate’s attention as they browse through the site. The good news about that competitive nature is that it means there are more people than ever online looking for someone just like you so make sure you showcase your personality and style to stand out above the rest.

Grab yourself and pen and paper and put some time aside to sit down to work on your profile when you have chance to think through the answers. Being vague or misleading will only limit the amount of compatible people that may contact you. Follow these guidelines to create a profile that is an accurate and flattering reflection of your true self!

Write As You Would Speak

Many people freeze when it comes time to fill out their online dating profile. But you don’t have to have a big ego or great writing skills to write something nice about yourself!

Don’t fall into the trap of submitting one word answers and same old, same old responses. What would you say if you were speaking to your potential love interest in person? Write it down!

Be unique and creative. Active, descriptive words can really help to dress up your profile. Instead of “I like: dogs and beaches”, try saying “I like: tanning at the beach and hanging out in the park with my dog, Rover”. Using this conversational tone in your profile gives people more insight into your personality and makes them more inclined to contact you if they like what they’re reading!

Use Your Filters

Your personal filters are your best weapon in turning away incompatible people as soon as they read your profile. You can save yourself a good deal of time sifting through a mountain of emails from people you would never think of dating by simply stating exactly what it is that you are looking for in your profile.

If you refuse to date smokers, say so in your profile. If you prefer a certain build or body type, get it out in the open right away. Shallow? Not at all. It is crucial to your online dating success that you make it as easy as possible for the right person to find you without wasting time communicating with people you have nothing in common with or no interest in.

Be upfront and clearly state your expectations. After all, the internet has brought dating a long way, but has yet to teach us to read each other’s minds!

Always Stay Positive

So maybe you have completed ten online dating profiles in recent months. Do not let your jaded or disappointed attitude right now spoil the impression that every person who reads your profile is forming about you over the next few weeks or months!

Negativity can shine through in your writing. Think of how you feel about negative people; you know the type, the constant complainer… the person whom you can never please. They are really not much fun to be around! If you did not know them already, would you be eager to meet them? Of course not – so do not sabotage your own online dating experience with sarcasm or negativity.

How could negativity show up in your profile? Failing to take the time to fill it out completely might tell people that you really are not putting much thought into the experience… so why should they put a second thought your way? Listing offline dating as one of your dislikes certainly does not send out a warm and fuzzy message to readers.

You might not even realize that your online dating profiles have a negative overtone. For example, saying “I hate jazz music” really is not providing any useful information about yourself. Try “I love listening to country music and dancing with my friends”. This way you are telling the reader more about you and you sound much more inviting and friendly. Which person would you want to speak with or meet in person?
