I love the smell of freshly bathed babies, freshly baked bread,coffee, lilleys, stocks, and tobacco plants on a warm summer night, and all my children when they depart from the house waring various aftershaves and perfume, and the smell of a peat fire...

Lynda Women and men have evolved for different purposes. Women excel and have superior senses for coping with homes, babies etc., whilst men are better equipped for doing those things that men (should) be doing. Women have better colour vision, men have better sight for distant and moving objects and are better able to judge distance, speed, trajectory. A woman's sense of touch and taste is better whilst men are better equipped in spatial abilities like map-reading and catching balls, running fast. Our genes were laid down about a quarter of a million years ago when emerging humans were hunter-gatherers (men hunters, women gatherers) and we are still stuck with them. Things do go awry and a small percentage of women have male-like abilities and vice versa. A good book, amongst many, is "Sense and Sensibilities" by a woman whose name I do not recall at the moment. I could look it up if anyone is interested. I guess is is fair to say that the sexes are complimentary to one another and neither is superior. Len

I love the smell of cordite and hate the revolting smell of dead flesh, blood and guts. Odd that - as there is a connection

nice to see some one liking smells when pregnant! Mine, at that time, is rubber! Rubber on anything, shoes, tools, flooring, even chewing elastic bands! Dettol, on everything. My bath of it burnt my husbands skin!
