Abstract
http://www.sciencemag.org/content/early/2011/01/05/science.1198331.abstract?sid=17dec345-5f1f-4211-9d32-30f3a4acb1ea
Emotional tearing is a poorly understood behavior that is considered uniquely human. In mice, tears serve as a chemosignal. We therefore hypothesized that human tears may similarly serve a chemosignaling function. We found that merely sniffing negative-emotion–related odorless tears obtained from women donors, induced reductions in sexual appeal attributed by men to pictures of women’s faces. Moreover, after sniffing such tears, men experienced reduced self-rated sexual arousal, reduced physiological measures of arousal, and reduced levels of testosterone. Finally, functional magnetic resonance imaging revealed that sniffing women's tears selectively reduced activity in brain-substrates of sexual arousal in men.
女の涙が、男の性欲低減に役に立つという研究が、今期のSCIENCEに発表されました。
■紀齊名

林子曰：齊名曾冒田口姓。師橘正通，學詩文，頗以才名自許。其文章，見明衡『文粹』。曾難江時棟及第詩，與匡房爭論，與江以言相互毀謗。齊名曾賦秋未出詩境曰：「霜花後垂詞林曉，風葉前駈筆驛程。」以言賦同題曰：「文峰按轡駒過影，詞海艤舟葉落聲。」具平親王見其草，改二句下六字為「白駒影、紅葉聲」。及兩詩並出，人皆以以言為優。齊名終身恨具平也。匡房評曰：「縱不改紅、白二字，用按、艤二字最有新意，則可優于齊名也。」
慶保胤曾與具平論當時文筆曰：「匡衡，如敢死之士數百騎，被介冑，策驊騮，其鋒森然，少敢當者。齊名，如瑞雪之朝，搖臺之上，彈箏柱。以言，如白砂庭前，翠松下，奏陵王。」具平問曰：「足下如何？」對曰：「似舊上達部駕毛車，時時有隱聲。」云云。
或問匡房曰：「匡衡、以言、齊名三人，文體各異，共得佳境。」答曰：「齊名，文文句句皆採摭古詞，故有風騷之體。至其不得之日，忽不驚目，無新意故也。以言，與之相違。所作之詩，任意恣詞，都無轡策。其體實新，其興彌多。至其不得之日，亦非後學之可及也。」
今按匡房論二人不及匡衡者，憚其家祖故乎。以言詩多見『麗藻』，未知如匡房所論否。齊名詩未見全篇，則不能詳考之。保胤之言，似貫之評歌人。雖未知其相當否，其譬喻可以慰耳。而聊想像其人。
好印象とはいえませんな...
