this post was typed on friday 3.27 for events happening on thursday night, 3.26 and posted saturday, 3.28. i didn’t feel like changing my verb tenses just so a heads up in case things don’t make sense.
blonde vs. brunette: look past the hair color
preface
the big question is “can a pheromone really produce different results on targets with different hair colors?” i first noticed this over spring as noted in the original post. for me personally, 203 works very well with my blonde gf. given that i show the same amount of interest, it works better on random blonde targets than it does on random non-blonde targets. i set out to test some theories.
hypothesis
it may be a stereotype, or some media-driven fallacy, or whatever you want to call it, but there’s a difference between blondes and brunettes. i’m not going as far as to say all blondes are giggly and dumb and spaced out, and all brunettes are sophisticated and (i don’t know any more brunette stereotypes); however, let’s take a look at some real life examples. on the blonde side, there’s hayden panettiere from “heroes” the tv show (ignore the fact she plays a cheerleader), cameron diaz, and what the hay, i’ll throw in madonna. think about any characteristics these people have. now look at megan fox and angelina jolie. think about their characteristics. perhaps it’s an endless cycle: they’ve been brought up to act a certain way, they get cast for characters who act this way, and it continues. as always, there are exceptions. but what if the hair is colored, either for a role or for a change? does the person change? the perception of them maybe, but deep down inside they’re the same person. therefore, it is my hypothesis that the underlying personality and reaction to the situation steers the results of mx203, not the hair color.
setup
last night was a pretty good testing night. people out and about watching the games, plus it’s the first thursday back from spring break and everyone wants to see their friends.
i put on 3s 272 at 4:30pm for regular testing. in addition to that residual, i went out with
3s 203 all around neck
dab of burberry weekend on jawline
dressed to go out
8:50pm or so
*the players
*me
hb9 (from my journal. blonde, hb9)
a good friend of sarah’s (blonde)
brunette that my buddy was pursuing while i was winging
brunette that sat at our table (take note of this one)
and other random targets
**test 1
**9pm, watching the games at a friend’s house
i show up and everyone is crowded around the tv. beer pong off to the side, drinking games in a corner table. i make a drink and work the crowd. lots of new faces, 1:1 guy/girl ratio. don’t know who made the guestlist but it was pretty nice. i’m not a fan of the games so i head over to the table. really i’m just there to meet up with some of the party crew so that we can head out to the bars. my friend pulls me aside and shows me the brunette he was working on. pretty cute girl playing drinking games. i take a seat next to her and start chatting. how are you, who do you know, do you like this game, etc. setting up a base so i can dhv my buddy. we both run out of drink at the same time so i offer to make her a refill, and she says she wants to get up anyway to walk around. i head over to the drink counter and she follows about a minute later with a blonde friend in tow. my buddy also joins the group. now we’re just standing around the counter shooting the breeze, me facing my buddy, the girls on either side of me. the brunette keeps her distance from me and my buddy. the blonde stands awfully close to me. nervously close. at one point i spilled some drink on my hand and went to go get a paper towel, and she would not move over to let me by. she looked at me and the look in her eyes said “i’m standing here on purpose so that you’ll press your body against mine in order to get by me and the wall.” my goodness. i didn’t want to take that risk so i cut in between my buddy and the brunette instead. i come back and notice that most of the party crew has shown up so we leave for the bars.
rxns from brunette(s): minimal, if any.
rxns from blonde(s): awkwardly strong. 203 possibly at play here to fuel deeper desires.
**test 1.5
**9:35ish pm, on the way to the bars
we usually do an “underground railroad” type deal when heading to bars, where we call various people and have them meet up with the main group as we make our way out. one of these people was a blonde girl. didn’t really talk to her much as she walked behind me on the sidewalk. after about 3 minutes of walking we stop in front of a house to wait for more people and she says “who has nice smelling cologne on? looks around, nobody says anything whoever it is, it’s probably the best thing i’ve ever smelled.” still nobody says anything, and we keep walking.
there is also a new brunette in the group, later known as “brunette that sat at our table.” right now she is random. she walks by my side but is talking to the new blonde behind me. lots of bumps into me. she says “oh, i can’t walk and talk at the same time.” we laugh. we reach a hilly section of the walk, and even more bumps into me. “these heels aren’t made for hills.” we laugh again and continue walking. no other words spoken.
rxns from brunette(s): 203 at work, or footwear not designed for bar walking? not sure.
rxns from blonde(s): comment on nice scent and i’m pretty sure she was talking about game since i didn’t smell any other colognes and my sprays were fairly fresh. i count this as a scent hit though, and not a 203 hit.
**test 2
**9:45pm, at the first bar
we got there right after the first wave of people, meaning the place is still not quite bumping yet but all the tables and good standing vantages are gone, including our usual spot. one of our smooth talkers saw a table with only one guy at it and essentially told him our big group needed the table more than he did, and we got it.
*brunette that sat at our table
*she shows up a few minutes later. i stood behind her as we played card games and bent down near her head at every hand to tell me what cards were dealt, as the table we got was in a darker area than usual. all you regular readers and phero testers probably know that i didn’t really care what cards were dealt; i just wanted to get my mix near her at a constant rate to do my testing. i gave off a friend vibe like “thank you for always telling me what cards are out,” didn’t show any more interest. at first she took that at face value; as the night went on she started to lean near me while we were talking and even asked me for a few hints on what cards to play. during one game i had the option to give out six drinks (i.e. make someone take six sips of his/her drink) and i gave them all to her. she looked back at me with a “seriously?!” face and i guess i sort of winked at her or something, and then she jabbed me in the stomach and took her drinks. the effect was there. i went from a random person to a friend to a potential flirting partner, complete with kino, all within 20 minutes or so. it was at this point i had to bail before sending the wrong signal and getting myself into trouble. i left to use the restroom and stood on the other side of the table when i came back. i noticed she kept looking at me, even going as far as to motion with her eyes for me to stand back near her. i pretended like there were too many people around and i didn’t feel like shuffling positions. indeed, the effect was there and now lingering.
rxns from brunette(s): increasingly positive; at the breakoff point it was at a very high note.
rxns from blonde(s): n/a
*sarah’s good friend
*the saying goes “you don’t date a girl; you date her friends, her pets, and her family.” this friend is one of “those friends.” she’s right behind sarah in everything she does and they’re like one. i assume this friend meets the potential suitors, makes sure they’re not creepy or anything, and if sarah ever bitches about me or i mess up something, this friend will let me know. she showed up about 30 minutes before some of us left for the second bar, and i gave her a hug. before we left she asked me to escort her around the bar to see if any of her friends were there because she didn’t want to walk around alone. i did and while we were walking, she stayed close to me, touched my arm a lot, had a general “good companion” vibe to her. this illustrates the staying power of 203 and how, when used for a ltr (or in this case, friend of a ltr), it strengthens the bond and creates the deep rapport needed for a successful ltr.
rxns from brunette(s): n/a
rxns from blonde(s): see above.
**test 3
**12:30am, at the second bar
hb9
she was there with some of her friends. she sees me approach and gives me a big smile and hug. we chat for a bit and i notice she’s standing very close to me, hand on my lower back. this is your ideal mx203 target and it was working wonders on her. we part to our separate tables. a few minutes later a waitress comes over and hands everyone in my group a shot. she comes to me and says “oh, hb9 asked me to get these for you.” hb9 knows everyone and i guess she simply just asked this waitress to send over some shots. very nice of her. not sure if this was a 203 thing or a good friend thing, but the early interaction was definitely 203.
rxns from brunette(s): the waitress was brunette and she was fairly nice to me, don’t think she stuck around long enough to catch the mix though.
rxns from blonde(s): hb9 loves it.
postmortem
- good reactions from all blondes encountered (some approached me, i approached others)
- one good reaction from a brunette (i approached her)
- same amount of interest shown in all cases (light friendship) except with sarah’s good friend
conclusion
mx203 seems to draw blondes. if they come to you, half the work is done and you just need to maintain a good image. if you go to them, you’ll be on a much better footing than if 203 was not present. the good reaction from the one brunette leans toward 203 also having good effects on brunettes, but you have to approach them. perhaps the table brunette had some blonde tendencies, or is a natural blonde (that just seems weird), or whatever, but she reacted well. on the other hand, i approached the brunette my buddy was hitting on and she had almost no reaction.
my curiosity has been satisfied for now. i’ll continue testing like always but probably not in as big of a scale as this test. please chime in with your results or comments.
