Just in case you thought you had, y'know, any kind of free will:

Pill changes women's taste in men

I'd like to see more tests done here - they may, after all, be highlighting differences between those people who are more likely/less likely to take the pill rather than people affected by the pill. Still, interesting result.

I must be some kind of freak then. Been on the pill for going on 12 years and I'd still take Legolas over Aragorn any day...

Erm... that last bit came out wrong I think.

Yes, but it's the character, not Orlando Bloom I find attractive, and the character is a lot more feminine, both in terms of make up and behaviour, than Mr Bloom.

My taste for "pretty boys" seems to almost totally faded with age (except the guy who does MTV's film reviews, he is cute). I definitely prefer a more 'masculine' look these days than I did ten years ago.

People have been shown to prefer the smell of people that have the least immune system factors in common with them (This tends to make healther babies).

I recall that the Pill etc can alter your sense of smell such that this is no longer always the case.
