the sense i chose was smell. i found an interesting article about a study that found a strong link between certain smells and a persons attractiveness and success. the study also found that men have a weaker smell when in relationships, suggesting scent helps attract a partner. smells also affect how our other senses take in information; someone may look visually unappealing if they smell bad. researchers think that the ability to identify small differences in smell may help doctors predict health issues and help people evaluate each other on a conscious level. i thought this study was interesting, and i wonder how i smell to other people.
