Hello. As specified in the title, I have been lurking around the board and community for a while on and off. About myself - I am a 26 y/o male, residing in the Southwest US. I live in a desert climate, where it is very dry, and extremely hot. As for my goal in being here, I’m not really sure how to describe it. I’m a believer as much as I am a skeptic, if that possibly makes sense. I think that pheromones work and exist; they are a component of human physiology. Do I think that they can be genetically produced in a way that works for the masses, especially with the marked results some have noted on the board here? That’s where I become skeptical. I also know that the human mind is part of human physiology and I wonder just how much placebo effect plays a part.
That being said, I do want to jump in and try it and I figured if I was going to, why not introduce myself, and at the same time save a little $; the latter still being the lower priority quite frankly. People have reported results which I would describe as nothing short of amazing. I know that it seems that most, not all, who try them are hooked and start experimenting with all kinds of combinations and new formulas. So, I don’t want to offend or debunk anyone’s assertions or experiences, I’m interested in seeing exactly how it works for me.
I’m an Asian male, and I spend the majority of my time at work - that encompassing a great deal of my social interactions. From reading, I understand that each of the aforementioned factors play a role in what formulas will work best for me and my environment. I look forward to getting everyone’s feedback and sharing my experiences. Thanks for the opportunity and the welcome gift as well.
The first thing I or any other experienced user will tell you is that these products are not magic. Any site that tries to tell you that is a lot of hype trying to sell you something that is probably questionable. What these products do is create a suggestion in the subconscious minds of those around you. It is up to you to act in such a way to get others to accept and act on those suggestions in a way that you want. Like you say - people have minds of their own, higher reasoning, social filters, etc. The these products do is grease the doors for you. You still have to get them open and walk through. It will always be 90 % you and 10 % pheromones.
The other thing about these products is that you will need to work with them some at first to see what your optimal dosing for any given product is. And you will find that some products work better for you than others. So you are sorta right - the mass production part is not an exact science. It does take some experimentation on your part to get the products to work their best for you.
The question is exactly what do you want to do with the pheromones? The products here are somewhat specialized and we do not want to suggest soemthing that will not do what you want it to do.
I’m a scientist and I think skepticism is a good thing I also know that given the complexity of human behavior, any pheromone is going to have subtle, variable, and indirect effects. This is why it is such a hard topic to study with scientific rigor.
But, you know, it is fun and I have certainly seen results that satisfy me for some products. For others I’m still trying to figure if/what effect they have on me or others. It is a little hard for me because I tend to be introverted, so my body language is often working against the social pheromone communication (like today I sprayed some instant sexiness on before going to the grocery store, then spent the entire trip listening to my iPod and not looking at anyone. No one noticed me, duh! Or if they did how would I know?)
Anyway, the guys here can give you some good suggestions as a starting point. I would stay start with the regular products as they are the most tested and work for most people. The putatives are, well, putative, and the test mixes are still being tested.
Yes these products do work. I know I use Pheromones almost everyday as alot of people on there. These hits and good reports do not happen everyday but when they do we like to share what we put on so others can give it a try and get a feel what each Pheromone does. It is fun after time you don’t pay attention to them anymore and just go with the flow and have fun.
So what are you looking to get out of Pheromones? Who do you want to use these around? For work, school, wife, bar?
Thanks for the reads and replies. I definitely understand that pheros are not magic potions, just as well as I understand that most of it has to do with myself and my behavior; just as you guys alluded to.
As for what I’m looking to get out of them…I’m not 100% sure to be honest. It’s something that I’ve always been interested in, and though I’m normally opposed to change, kind of just want to run my own science experiment. I get that you have to try different things and find which blend works for each individual. I’m very happy with my life in general - work, relationships, and friends; so I’m not sure that anything needs to be changed. That being said, you can always do better, but I’m definitely not looking for anything specific, nor am I trying to woo the one love of my life.
I hope that provides a little more perspective. Thanks again to all of you.
My name is Tisha and I am a hostess/Phero guru here on Pherotalk.
I can understand your skepticism, even after 9 years of using mones there are times when I say hmmm was that me or the mones. The answer is both. Mones enhance who you already are as well as send subtle signals to others. While you read amazing experiences in the forum keep in mind for most users these are not happening every time they use them. We tend to just report the fun stuff. Mones give life, socialization, interaction and attraction a bit of a boost. Its the overall improvement in these areas that tells the story. Do placebo effects occur. Of course there are times when they do but it dosnt account for even half the reactions you get. The best way to find out though is to test them out so I am glad you decided to give it a go.
I suggest you start with the socials. IO IH Ishine maybe one masculine like IG or AMMO. They have to-go size bottles you can get for a low cost and they are great for just checking things out.
I also know that given the complexity of human behavior, any pheromone is going to have subtle, variable, and indirect effects. This is why it is such a hard topic to study with scientific rigor.
