A314 is one of the products I wear more consistently, and I’ve noticed over the past year or so that women who see themselves as equals to me, especially at work, seem to challenge my authority more often when I wear lower doses, i.e. 1-2 drops. It seams that the smaller doses cause enough tension to create a power struggle and I speculate their subconscious is competing to hold equal rank when I display an unusually dominant signature. This has created an annoyance more than once, as a female coworker or friend strives to dominate uncharacteristically. At this point I increase the application to 3-5 drops total and act firm in status and very polite (as to not come across dominant or superior) , which takes care of the problem as they back down easily when confronted with minimal resistance to their efforts. Perhaps this is a matter of personal congruency, as most negative reports of A314 with women involve a woman superior, and not a person of equal status. Does anybody have similar instances? ---

Toil I wonder if instead of upping the A314 to increase you own dominance it might be better to add a small amount of TAL to increase her confidence. Bosshank made a recent post about an experience with IS/A that you might find interesting and I played with TAL some in a spanish class last spring. It has some really interesting co-operative properties worn by a strong guy around strong women. > [@MX 134 - on a guy?](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/mx-134-on-a-guy/15077): > > Yep - you read it right. Seems April sent me some MX 134. Not sure what she was trying to tell me but … Anyways - in the spirit of Renny testing TAL I thought - well, what the heck. Let’s give it a try. Myself: Mid-40s, athletic, married Product: MX 134 in a To Go bottle. 4 Sprays to the neck and upper chest. What happened: Wore it to a meeting where I was going to be on the periphery. In particular I wore it as I knew I would be around 3 females.

I’m just going to put down some thoughts here. If you want the whole story check my journal and ACCO202’s thread ( [TAL experienced users](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/tal-experienced-users/9071) ) where this testing plot was sorta hatched. I’ve been playing with TAL in various mixes and concentrations for about a month. I still want to go back and work with it some more but I think a break is in order. So here are some thoughts about it while they are … ---

Thanks for the info. I’ll have to give it a try. Fortunately, I already have a bottle of Tal! Yay! ---

I just added a report about TAL myself `http://www.pheromonetalk.com/mens-pheromone-advice-tricks-tips/tal-report-16529.html` Check it out and had similar results with 15 mcg
