I was reading about sex pheromones recently, and there is a big debate whether they are real, or whether they can be reproduced, bottled, and sold.

According to Dr. Virgil Amend on howlifeworks.com, “dating and mating is highly influenced by pheromones, powerful air-borne chemical hormones produced by the body that fill the air around us to attract the opposite sex.”

There have also been studies that show a positive correlation between pheromones and testosterone levels in men.

I have heard about pheromones, but I never knew exactly how this worked or if it was even real.

Recently I’ve been noticing: when I’m attracted to men, I think I am responding to pheromones.

Yesterday a business associate came to the office. I am not physically attracted to him, even though he’s in great shape and most people find him extremely sexy. I’m not attracted to him for many reasons, but for some reason when he is around I get so turned on! It has to be the pheromones.

Also, last week I was at the grocery store. Same thing happened: a guy I’m not physically attracted to was standing right behind me. He looked like he had come straight from the gym.

Suddenly I wanted to rip his clothes off! I contrived a sexual fantasy about him right at the check stand. The only thing that prevented my fantasy from coming true was the lady ringing me up, and the fact that he didn’t talk to me first (huge turn off.)

I can’t say whether pheromone potions work, but I’ve seen the effects of natural pheromones.

According to Chris Chew in “Testosterone for Muscle Gain and Boost Pheromone Production,” a key determinant in a man’s level of pheromones is his testosterone level, which also increases his muscle size and strength.

This could explain why I am mysteriously attracted to muscle-men, even when I wouldn’t generally consider dating them.
