Sometimes when I am close enough to get the scent of a white woman's hair, I become instantly turned on in a very raw, primal way. This has only happened with white women, so I'm wondering.

Pheromones are produced from many locations, but more likely this is an attraction to the smell of their sebum. People of different races tend to have some differences in the consistency and composition of their sebum as well as their ear wax. You may associate this scent with good feelings for some reason in your past.

Actually, pheromones in humans are as yet scientifically controversial, so best not to make blanket statements.

I'm not sure "most" is accurate, but their are vocal proponents on both sides. Much of this depends on whether certain chemicals associated with certain effects are sufficiently analogous in their functional role with pheromones in animals for the label to be appropriate. So part of the dispute is terminological.

TERA makes a good point though. You may be encountering white women who use a particular shampoo or conditioner. Different ethnicities do tend to use different brands and products.

Actually, people don't produce pheromones at all, but some animals do. LOL!

EDIT: Gnu is right, it's controversial, but most scientists agree that there is a lack of evidence for the idea that humans secrete pheromones.

Maybe it's the shampoo their using? There's some wonderful smelling stuff on the market...my personal favorites are "Organix" vanilla bean shampoo and "Organix" coconut milk conditioner!

People do not secrete pheromones. It is most likely just Her shampoo.

I think that's just you Sweetie. Whatever turns you on. Just don't try making off with a lock of a stranger's hair.
