Default Resolved Question: What do you think of this research?

Researchers have recently discovered that what some women might consider a weird fetish is surprisingly common. A recent study found that men with elevated testosterone levels are strongly attracted to the smell of a woman's body, and are particularly aroused by the smell of a woman's feet and axilla (armpits). The higher a man's testosterone level, the greater his enjoyment of and arousal from smelling female sweat (r-value=0.975). Highly elevated testosterone levels also correlated to a greater state of arousal for men who were exposed to the smell of female sweat. This has led some to believe that the notion of "human pheromones" -long a topic of debate in the medical community as to whether they really exist- may be more common than modern science has admitted, but that evolutionary and social pressures have limited the male response to a pheromonal response to female sweat, so this effect is only noticeable in men who have elevated testosterone levels. Ladies, what's your response to science saying it's normal for a man to want to sniff your sweaty feet and pits?
