As quoted from the article...
"Sexual arousal overrides the natural disgust response, the researchers found, and allows women to willingly engage in behaviors that they might normally find repugnant."

And that, combined with the fact that money is so sexually arousing, explains how the vast majority of us ever get laid.

Lots of alcohol does the same thing. Ever hear of beer goggles?

Explains most of my relationships in a nutshell. Good thing I can part my hair with my tongue eh?

It never ceases to amaze me the time and energy that goes into documenting in a scientific manner things that we know by instinct.... we are sexual beings and in the heat of the moment, anyone is capable and willing to do just about anything to chase the dragon..... of an orgasm or 4.
