The secret to finding true love may lie in genetic differences - Science, News - The Independent

Very interesting especially the part about subtle influences of pheromones in human relationships.

I was actually thinking about this the other evening. There was a VERY similar report from the BBC a couple of years ago saying that people could pick up on the genetic differences and evolutionary we were conditioned to reproduce with those with a gene pool that gave us highest chance of survival.

It led me on to consider the following; If the above were the sole underlying reason for attraction would messing with our bodies natural pheromone order actually attract a different mate to what we would have otherwise or would the pheromones here simply amplify certain attributes to those we would be genetically predisposed to anyway?

That’s interesting! Thanks!
