Yes, it does from follicular to ovulation...

Do women keep changing their settings in that Gnome 2 fork over the course of their ovulatory cycle?

Oh, that kind of mate.

It's 2026, and I still can't read a PDF on mobile.

I must be doing something wrong. I'm using FF Focus. Is that it? I tried Safari. Either they moved the reader button, or it's not present for PDFs. Help me Obi-Wan.

Many behaviors are determined by hormones. Men are no exception. When calm, men tend to prefer intellectual women, but when they're impulsive after drinking in a bar, they prefer sexy women.

Nah… The same man would choose sexy every time. When wanting an intellectual discussion, he chooses a male friend.

It is OK! Don't forget we are animals first. Obviously we need that neocortex to keep decisions in check!

Findings of TFA: Yes.

Women show a robust increase in attraction to cues of ancestral genetic quality (body masculinity, behavioral dominance) on high-fertility days, but only when evaluating men as short-term/unspecified sexual partners, not long-term partners.
