I have an open mind on the subject too. I am not looking to disprove pheromones; I hope they work – what a wonderful gift to the world if they do! If they don’t I will be disappointed, I get saddened when I see people getting taken advantage of…
People sometimes mistake my tone because I am quick to point out that sometimes what we consider “proof” is, in fact, not necessarily the case. If a guy wearing pheromones goes to a bar and a woman talks to him at length, this might be pheromones at work. But it is far from proof.
My experiment attempts to remove placebo from the equation. Since the participant is well aware that not both of the bottles contain mones. Ideally there would be 4 bottles with 1 having mones but that would become pricey and much harder to journal.
BTW, I have been running several other experiments – this one just happens to require seasoned pheromone users.
