Intersting stuff, definitely.  I watched a news story that talked about female mice being monitored for brain activity and brain growth, and found that female mice who were sexually aroused, presumably through the scent of the male mouse, specifically his pheromone attractants, actually had bigger brains.  How is that possible? 

Well, we don’t know for sure of course, but pheromones and their implications on humans have also been widely studied without complete conclusion, but we do know that pheromones produce chemical reactions in the brains of the opposite sex when they “get a whiff”, and usually this response if a pelasurable one.  In this case it is hypothesized that female mice who are exposed to male mouse pheromones actually get smarter because of it! 

We’ve talked on MaleEnhancementMagazine (see review of pheromones products) before about pheromones and people, and how there have been studies done that show that we definitely follow in the path of other species, including ants and other mammals, in that we do seem to emit and respond to pheromones, and they do account for attraction to mates to a certain extent.  We’ve all experienced those moments when we find ourselves inexplicably attracted to someone for no apparent reason. 

They may not be exactly our physical “type” but we know that we feel somehow connected to them, as well as sexually attracted on some level that almost borders on subconscious.  The study with mice seems to conclude that maybe women would experience some sort of positive brain development like the female mice too, since mice are very similar to humans biologically in some ways, one might be able to hypothesize that female women may react the same way to male pheromones.
