Most of us here know about cause and effect when it comes to the effect of pheromones on hormones, right? Here's a report from a journalist who has no clue.

Well that isn't exactly a scientific journal is it. I doubt they had the moxie to review an article like that for evidence-based merit. Not terribly written, but not very convincing.

It shows how journalists can misinterpret research and report their misinterpretation with clarity that could confuse anyone outside the research community, and some skeptical insiders. Some are not much different than salespeople who would sucker you into buying anything they could, just to put money in their pockets. As you may guess, I have a problem with this journalist's sell-the-article, forget the data, approach.
