Here’s a look at an article relating the findings of a new study on the pill and it’s disruption of the normal cyclic attractions and interactions between men and women.

An excerpt:
“The type of man a woman is drawn to is known to change during her monthly cycle—when a woman is fertile, for instance, she might look for a man with more masculine features. Taking the pill or another type of hormonal contraceptive upends this natural dynamic, making less-masculine men seem more attractive, according to a small but growing body of evidence. The findings have led researchers to wonder about the implications for partner choice, relationship quality and even the health of the children produced by these partnerships.”

NFP never looked so attractive!
