Scream Baby, I'll tell you who you are

One might think that the slab only concerns the deer and yet ... A recent study has established that we could also react to the sound of a single voice as if it were an aphrodisiac. Eyes closed, if we listen to someone talking, we can evaluate his physical power. Close to the muscle. In late summer, early fall, the deer goes through a rut period, and humans only hear the haunting echoes. These screaming animals until losing reason, have a sound called sis, rather unpleasant, that we could compare the efforts to a human vomit. Their raucous roar echoing the early morning and evening twilight. But at the peak of the rut, males don’t stop all day long and prevent sleeping women and men tormented by loneliness.With each season, sometimes man, sometimes woman, suffers from being abandoned by listening to the sounds of other living beings stirred with passion. Females who listen to these screams receive also indications about the male body calling and head naturally to the more powerful ("reassuring"?). Deeper is the scream, the more they seem irresistibly attracted. And for good reason: Because of the testosterone, the male vocal cords thicken and cause an immediate sound with serious overtones, showing a power such as the female, when she hears it, feels safe. In a fascinating article devoted to the latest study on the human voice, a journalist compares the rutting deer vocalizations with Rocky Balboa ("Adrienne" Adrienne! ") Based on a study conducted entirely by a team of the University of Santa Barbara. This study demonstrates, without a doubt that we are perfectly capable of assessing the physical power of a man by only hearing his voice. This does not necessarily mean that all Musclors have hoarse throat, but our ears can detect elements (yet unknown) in his voice betraying the hormone levels and / or size of the biceps ... Human beings are mammal too and we can see in it a sort of legacy of our ancestors. It was probably a time when it was useful to have several possibilities (including nights and at far distance) to identify a dangerous rival for men, or a strong partner for women.
