Do we give out 'flirty' frequencies?

Do we send out frequencies like this to make people get attracted to us? Pooky Amsterdam

Chris - Yes we do, because we speak to them. Scientists have shown that men who have deep voices tend to be more attractive to women who fancy men, obviously.  Voice is down to the level of testosterone – the more testosterone you have the lower your voice and so it can be a sign of a well-testostero-genised man.  Also there was a study recently that showed women who are at their peak fertility tend to use higher tones in their voice than at other times of the month.  Women speak with a high pitch when they’re more fertile.  This is maybe another subtle clue that women are using to give away their fertility to men.
