Hormonal: The Hidden Intelligence of Hormones—How They Drive Desire, Shape Relationships, Influence Our Choices, and Make Us Wiser

by Martie Haselton Author

Did you know women walk more, eat less, socialize more, meet more men, dance more, and flirt more when they're ovulating? Or that PMS may have evolved to get rid of boyfriends with unfit sperm? Behind the "fickle" differences in what women find sexy about men, or what they like to wear, there's a hidden adaptive intelligence that has been shaped over eons. This book takes a deep, "Darwinian feminist" look at the biological processes that so profoundly influence our behavior. Focused on the experience of heterosexual cis women, but good insights nonetheless.
