Chemistry.com: Chemical Romance
OPW -- I just got the following promo email through from Chemistry.com. It's quite edgy... "Chemical Romance - An interview with Dr Helen Fisher, Playboy Magazine, Feb 2007 - Mark Brooks
Q: Biochemically speaking, how does seduction work?
A: Sex drive is associated with testosterone in both men and women. Romantic love is associated with elevated activity of the dopamine system, which is like natural cocaine.
Q: What happens when she climaxes - other than the obvious?
A: Orgasm drives up oxytocin levels in the brain: again, that increases her feelings of attachment toward you. When a man has an orgasm, he deposits testosterone, estrogen, dopamine, norepinephrine and oxytocin into the woman. All of that is in his seminal fluid, so when he ejaculates he's really injecting her with extremely powerful chemicals."
