h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A friend told me about an experiment he did last weekend to establish if beer has got oestrogen in it and came to the following conclusion:

1. he has gained weight
2. he was talking stuff that had no meaning
3. he had difficulties driving (typical German I say)
4. it was impossible to think logically
5. it was impossible to aknowledge he was in the wrong even if it was obvious
6. he thought he was the centre of the universe
7. he had a headache and was in no mood to have sex
8. he couldn't controll his emotions
9. he was walking around holding another man's hand
10.and finally he had to go to the loo every ten minutes.....

So he concluded that beer indeed has oestrogen in it.....does anyone aggree????

Howdy dark queen!!

(Why do I always have to say Howdy? I don't know?? <confused&gt

Anyways, in relation to your beer query. I would have to say it had more testosterone in it than anything, from my own experiences.

1. Tend to act like more of an idiot.
2. My IQ seems to drop dramatically.
3. Dancing becomes worse.
4. More likely to start fights for no reason.
5. Feel more of a NEED to belt people.
6. Harder to do things that require balance and coordination.
7. Puts me "in the mood" .
8. Think I'm better than I really am.
9. Set my sights far higher than "my league" with the opposite sex.
10. Vocabulary becomes limited.

But that could just be me !

hi tanzen,

faszinating nickname you've got. What does it mean (surely not what the german word tanzen means = dancing)?

Anyway, your interpretation of No 7 could also be an indication to oestrogen.... women are renown to almost constantly be "in the mood".

Or do you mean something else?

Your majesty !

How would I explain no 7 without being crude? Amorous mood? "Barry White" mood? A slow dancing kind of mood?

And yes, tanzen is german for dancing. It's a long story involving a university function, an open bar (ie free drinks ) and a boy called "Ricky The German" .

Ever since then, tanzen it has been !

Hi tanzen,

So you meant "in the mood for love"......????

Faszinating story about your nickname. Are you living up to your nickname (ie go dancing every spare time)????

Yes, that's what I meant!

I like tanzen. I think it works for me , and of course it's a funny story, which is always a bonus .

I love dancing, and I do it often. Unfortunately, I've never really been very good at it. But I like to stick to the "dance like nobody's watching" philosophy !!
