It might be a “new study” but it’s old news.
Guys who think women are the same creatures from week to week, or even moment to moment, haven’t been paying much attention.
Guys who care a whole heck of a lot what a woman thinks of them are in for a very unpleasant roller coaster ride.
I'm in for some smooooooth sailin', then. :)
I’ve thought that women’s hormonal shifts offer them at least the opportunity to be aware of what their hormones are doing to their minds, and to take that into account in regulating their behavior and making decisions. Not that all women are aware, or that the ones who are aware, make the extra effort.
Men, OTOH, without the same degree of fluctuation, might find it easier to deny that they are under the influence of their hormones.
