Know what? Now the topic about physical attraction has already been a yesterday’s news. Why...? It’s because some recently-released scientific discoveries have revealed unexpected roles of biological power to human’s passionate and sexual relationships. Those scientists claim that these biological determinations direct us to unconsciously seek for a particular type of person, perfectly matched with our biological requirements. What a stunning discovery!Recently, I watched a documentary on Discovery channel, The Science of Sex Appeal, which talking about the process of forming and maintaining intimate relationships between men and women by using biological approach to study and explain. If all of the scientific discoveries of the documentary are true, then it means that we all are engaging in a chemical war which we unconsciously fight for searching and taking the most biologically matched partners.
There are three major biological determinations for our bodies to be considered when we trying to begin intimate relationships with someone. Smell, voice pitch, and face symmetry are hidden clues of attractiveness which our bodies are trying to detect and identify.
Sex therapist Dr. Laura Berman says there are 10,000 different scents which we are capable to identify, but in fact, there is an enormous realm of unconscious scents which we’re not even aware that they are existed as well as how much we are being controlled by them. In this case, the scents produced by our bodies. According to Karl Grammer and Elizabeth Oberzaucher, who are leading the research on the human scent's influence on sexual attraction, they claim that when women are in their ovulation period, they can produce copulins, a charming scent which can make real men to be submissive to women’s feet. Moreover, copulins also stimulates men to secrete androstenone, an undesirable odor which repels women who aren’t ovulating, increasing chances for beginning sexual activities. What an intelligent plan of Mother Nature! 
Another biological factor that has been found to directly involve sexual attraction is voice pitch. According to Dr. Gordon Gallup, a professor at the State University of New York at Albany, he claims that women with higher level of estrogen producing higher level of voice pitch which is able to attract men’s attention. He says that most men like a women with higher tone of voice because the voice represents femaleness that means she needs to be protected by a man. His study also indicates that the higher tone of voices articulating by women in their ovulation period also offers clue to men that they are ready to be engaged in reproduction activities.
The final factor to talk about here is face symmetry. For me, it is pretty surprised to know that some scientists have recently created a kind of measurement to determine how much a face is really attractive. Dr. Kendra Schmid, an assistant professor of biostatistics at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, claims that she uses 29 different measurements to create a formula for a “perfect” face by determining someone's appeal on a scale of 1 to 10. According to her study, the ratio of the length of the face to the width of the face should be 1.6, also known as the golden ratio. She says the face should also be divided into three equal pieces vertically, the forehead, then the bottom of the forehead to the nose and then from the nose to the chin. Not a big surprise! Brad Pitt has a perfect face because he got 9.3 out of 10.
As we see now, for us to search and select an appropriate partner as well as to maintain relationships with him or her, there are many factors to consider, including biological determinations. Although smell, voice pitch, and face symmetry might be regarded as unconscious factors of sex appeal which we are almost unable to design and control them, but we can learn how to use what we already have in the wisest and most profitable way for creating and maintaining a good relationships with someone. Also, after reading this story I hope you’ll realize that we all are playing in a game of love which is not solely controlled by courtship techniques or physical attraction, but biological power which can arouse our chemical of love to its peak when we met someone who matches our biological determinations of sexuality.
