women's stockings being used to measure whale libidos
Published Oct. 28, 2009Views: 336
"To see if a whale’s libido is going full-throttle, grab a pair of nylons and head to the ocean, reports the New Scientist:
For the first time, testosterone and progesterone—two key hormones that signal whether whales are pregnant, lactating or in the mood to mate—have been extracted from whales’ lung mucus, captured in nylon stockings dangled from a pole over their blowholes as they surface to breathe."
One has to wonder: since dolphins are even smarter than whales, do they also like 6-inch heels and garters? Maybe something slinky from Agent Provocateur? Some Coco Chanel, candlelight and sultry music, perhaps?
