It is mentioned that THC, the primary active ingredient in Cannabis (Marijuana) responsible for altering the way the Human brain works, also plays a role in altering the Olfactory system which if I am not mistaken is also responsible for the detection of pheromones.

My question to the research forums is, if there are any in depth articles, journals, or research on individuals under the effects of THC and pheromones?

1. I've never seen that kind of research, personally.

2. Mones don't technically work via the olfactory system, as I understand it. They have smells, but can work even on people who cannot smell them. Depending on who you talk to, they work via the VMO, nerve zero, or mucosal absorption. Or perhaps different things work via different mechanisms.

All i know is my game is non existent when im really stoned. I just get stupid and have difficulty in expressing myself.

Second that. As much as I love smoking pot, it lowers my latent inhibition to the point where I can't even socialize. It's something I wait till I get home to after partying or when I'm with good company.

Well, at least in California, I have a medical prescription for pot : )

I use the indica strain instead of sativa, which has a lot more cannabidiol than THC. Unlike THC, it helps me to sleep and relax.

I imagine the effect of pheromones is not influenced in any way by cannabinoids.

I can tell you that I've gotten serious hits from people who were quite under the influence

Weed + AV = god.
Every time I'm stoned and doing stuff, when I run into girls I know, instead of being quiet and sketchy like some people I know,
"hows it going girl what are you up to? Oh yeah? hows that? Oh no doubt! tell your boyfriend I said hi, should catch up some time, soon? gimme a shout sometime soon! etc etc and I barely give them time to reply. I'm not quick to sound fucked up, but as in I just take hold of the conversation and tell her how it is. I become such a god damn flirt I scare myself sometimes, and i'm so cocky I dont know how girls dont hate me, instead they get all cute and stuff...

Hi Chris...I don't know if you already vaporize, but if you don't I really recommend you looking into it.

You get a much better cleaner/clearer buzz, because you don't get any of the nasty stuff from the smoke or gas. Not to mention how much better it is for our health. Since you don't burn your meds you can use them to cook or make oils etc, if you are into that. One of the best things about vaping is that there is no weed smell, either in your house or breath.

VaporBrothers and Silver Surfer are both top notch.

I recommend the Vaporgenie, the Arizer, or the Volcano if you are able to afford it.
