Ooh, Baby, I’m In Heat

I KNEW scientists were perverts!
A recent study that took place in a strip club suggests that human females go into heat, just like other animals. Apparently we’re just too dense to be consciously aware of it. From a World Science article (god they have one of the ugliest websites, it looks positively paranormal, not scientific):
Surveying strip-club lap dancers who perÂform erotÂic dances for for cash, they found that tips vary by an averÂage of 45 percent deÂpendÂing on the time of the month, correÂspondÂing to the length of the ovuÂlaÂtory cyÂcle. That’s the one-month cyÂcle in which a ripe egg is reÂleased from the ovary, beÂcomÂing availÂaÂble for fertilÂizaÂtion.
DurÂing peak times of the cyÂcle lap dancers made $335 per five-hour shift on avÂerÂage, comÂpared to $260 durÂing typÂical peÂriÂods, the reÂsearchÂers found. DurÂing menÂstruaÂtÂion, the womÂen made only $185 on avÂerÂage. The peak earnÂings durÂing a cruÂcial phase of the cyÂcle could only lead to one conÂcluÂsion: feÂmales were in heat, the inÂvesÂtiÂgaÂtors said.
I want to know who thought this study idea up, clever bastard. All right, so the data was collected online, not by some drooling guy in a lab coat lurking in the corner with a clipboard.
Anyway, women on the pill don’t experience a spike in earnings. I’ve been on the pill for years and recently went off it and am curious to observe how my behavior changes, as well as those around me. So far it looks like things get pretty feverish around the 23rd of each month (my period hits around the 12th). Instead of having 30 days of general horniness, I have a week of SUPER horniness. Just what I needed - my horniness concentrated. It’s like having a super power.
Ovulating = SHA-ZAM!
