    According to researchers at the Weizmann Institute, chemicals in a woman's tears decreases a man's sexual arousal. Interestingly, there's no smell—tears couldn't be distinguished from saline. But the chemicals still lowered testosterone levels in test subjects.

    now men have a good excuse not to go see those weepy chick flicks on a date... :D

    would you be turned off if a woman cried?

    Interesting. This contradicts the recent boards' study that suggested men were turned on by Jean Byrne's tears.

    I actually don't get turned on unless they're an emotional wreck!

    Tears are nature's lube.

    I thought spit was nature's lube. Anyway women in the crying game are dangerous! They could either lash out or they could have a mickey like in the film!

    Am i right in saying this research requires the man to taste the tears? Surely if thats happening the relationship is already doomed.

    They don't affect gay men's desire for women though.

    If there's an opening, I'll take it.

    Not as fun as ear sex, though. Much more of a challenge.

    makes sense...as the guilt trip switch of pretending to care requires thought meaning blood has to leave lower head to go to upper head...

    Goes without saying I'd imagine.
