Researchers from SUNY
Albany published an article in the Archives
of Sexual Behavior (2002) supporting a previous hypothesis that the hormones in semen have a mood-boosting
effect on women. In February of this year a controversial editorial
appeared in the Surgery News which
stated, “Forget chocolate on Valentine’s Day, try semen.”
Semen, according to
respectable scientists, contains substantial doses of natural feel-good chemicals
including endorphins, serotonin, oxytocin, and melatonin. These erotic essences
are absorbed through the abundantly vascular vaginal wall during intercourse as long as
there’s no impediment (e.g. condom or coitus interruptus). This
is good news for women in monogamous relationships when fears of pregnancy or
disease are non issues.
Given the choice between a semen cocktail taken straight up a box of truffles, I’d unequivocally choose the chocolates every time.
