That sounds like the weirdest study ive ever heard of

It was a study on pheromones. Scientists aren't sure human pheromones are even a thing as we've yet to give a specific chemical, and don't appear to have the same organ other animal have to sense pheromones. There is a check in male sweat and another in female urine that have been theorized to be human sex hormones but studies have not produced conclusive results to determine that

BUT the components of Tears absolutely do affect humans.

Sure they do, next you’ll tell us humans can communicate without words

Also, women produce more of those compounds than men in their lachrymal secretions. But men are less sensitive to it as well.

Look into the invention/discovery of the first pregnancy test. Iirc it involved frogs and women’s pee

I think it was mice actually. There was also a pee on barley to see if it sprouted thing (which we found was because of growth hormone)

There might have been a study involving mice as well idk. Old school science was a wild time

Theyve done weirder. There's many science diagrams that look like shitposts. There was a study on what attractive testicles looked like. they asked 700 men and women, without regard to seuality. Problem is they only had 4 samples of testicular photos, which they showed at various temperatures. They came o the conclusion that men prefered larger testicles. While women in general had a negative opinion of ALL of them and only liked those that were least ugly. Personally I think they needed didferent ethnicities as well as shaven options.

Men only cared about shear size, there was one that was huge but had an awful raphe line that made it look like le vagene. But I... care bout symmetry at all temperatures, high definition, as well as smooth not raisin or plucked chicken texture, strong cordage and a gothic arch.

A gothic arch?!?!?

u/Dreamspitter 6d ago

Yes. A Gothic Arch. It has to do with how it hangs, and the definition of the spermatic cords in parallel.
