The Reason Why Men Hate Chick Flicks

Female Tears Lower Testoterone Levels in Men

Men who took part in the study, published in Science Express, were asked to sniff the tears of women who had cried while watching sad films.

Sobel said researchers had expected the tears would boost the men's sense of empathy. Instead, their heart and respiratory rates, salivary testosterone and a brain scan all pointed to a reduction of sexual arousal


I'm calling for a ban on all Nora Ephron movies!

Best you have some "good" stuff on your iphone for when you get dragged along to the flicks. You dont want to be unable to perform a couple of hours later!!

Oh they do- because the reaction in women to chick flicks lowers the resistance to pantie removal more than the corresponding testosterone lowering in men.

Uh oh, I kinda like chick flicks

Then again I like film in general so it's not what I watch exclusively.
