The Science Behind Resisting a Gorgeous Woman

Researchers have found that oxytocin, also known as the "love hormone," may play a role in supporting healthy monogamous relationships and impacting fidelity. In a study, men who inhaled an oxytocin nasal spray were less likely to engage with a beautiful woman who invaded their personal space, even feeling uncomfortable and having a negative physical reaction. Oxytocin has been shown to modulate social behavior, including bonding and trust, and can be released through physical touch, acts of appreciation, and emotional connections.
