Women’s Voices “Sexier” When Ovulating?
There was a very interesting study in the subtlety of human behavior and our basic, prehistoric instincts that haven’t changed much over thousands of years, even with the evolution of both men and women to adopt to today’s modern world, having to do with the detection of subtle differences in a woman’s voice when she is ovulating, which we all know, is when a woman is most likely to conceive, or when she is most fertile.
This is just another one of nature’s ways to propagate a species, by making it nearly impossible to avoid the instinct to mate and produce offspring by making the opposite of sex more alluring during peak times of fertility, and to make the male of the species want to “spread his seed”, so to speak, and unwittingly more attuned to these increasingly subtle changes in a woman’s voice, body, smell and appearance during olvulation to make her more attractive in a visual, olfactory and oral sense.
Much like the pheromones men use to attract women, this is part of the woman’s instinctual ways of attracting men when they are most ready to mate and have offspring, whether they know it or not.
The scientists who began the small study wanted to find out if men had evolved to the point where they could still pick up on the subtle difference in a woman’s voice during this time, because they say that women have evolved to better conceal the times when they are ovulating, so men had evolved to be more keenly attuned to these times by developing a higher awareness to the subtle nuances.
Men could still detect a difference, and they identified women’s voices who were ovulating as being “sexier”, although to the naked ear, the woman’s voices sounded pretty much the same as they did any other time. Supposedly the hormonal changes that occur during the ovulation period of the menstrual cycle in women has an effect on the voicebox, however subtle that men can pick up on. It’s just nature’s way of making us virtually powerless against the will not to spawn!
