Women want men to be able to seamlessly transition from [[Stoicism|stoic]] and [[cool]] to cocky, amazed, amuzed, or any one of the hundreds of emotions a human is capable of, at all the appropriate moments, at a moments notice, something that [[Autism|autists]] are incapable of doing. Which is another reason women have an burning hatred for [[Autism|autists]]. | Women want men to be able to seamlessly transition from [[Stoicism|stoic]] and [[cool]] to cocky, amazed, amuzed, or any one of the hundreds of emotions a human is capable of, at all the appropriate moments, at a moments notice, something that [[Autism|autists]] are incapable of doing.

=== Scents and flowers === | |||
A study done on the effects of flowers on mating attractiveness and behavior, showed that 18–25-year-old women (N = 600) walking alone in a shopping mall, when approached by an attractive 20-year-old male-confederate soliciting them for their phone number. Agreed more favorably to the confederate's courtship solicitation when solicited in the area of the flower shop than compared to a cake shop, or a women's shoes shop. Positive mood induced by exposure to flowers was used to explain these results.<ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00224545.2012.683463</ref> Also in two more experiments, women's perception of male attractiveness and women's potential mating behavior are positively affected by simple exposure to flowers. In Study 1 women who were exposed to flowers while they watched a video of a man perceived the man to be more attractive and sexier. They also reported being more inclined to accept a date from him. In Study 2 women who were exposed to flowers responded more favorably to an explicit solicitation from a male confederate in a subsequent interaction. The results show that the simple exposure to flowers had a significant effect on women's perception of mating attractiveness and behavior.<ref>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00224545.2012.683463</ref> | |||
These results suggest the typical unnattractive if ugly, romantic if [[Chad]] display of giving a woman flowers leads to copulation opportunities. The results also suggest men wearing flower scented perfume, would be seen as more sexually attractive. | |||
