'Torn between two lovers' by Mary Macgregor 1976
....Torn Between Two Lovers...
(Peter Yarrow and Phil Jarrel)
There are times when a woman has to say what's on her mind...
Even though she knows how much it's gonna hurt...
Before I say another word let me tell you, I love you...
Let me hold you close and say these words as gently as I can...
There's been another man that I've needed and I've loved....
But that doesn't mean I love you less...
And he knows he can't possess me and he knows he never will....
There's just this empty place inside of me that only he can fill...
Torn between two lovers,feelin' like a fool...
Lovin' both of you is breakin' all the rules...
Torn between two lovers, feelin' like a fool...
Lovin' you both is breakin' all the rules...
You mustn't think you've failed me...
Just because there's someone else...
You were the first real love I ever had...
And all the things I ever said I swear they still are true..
For no one else can have the part of me I gave to you...
I couldn't really blame you if you turned and walked away...
But with everything I feel inside, I'm asking you to stay...
Torn between two lovers...
Feelin' like a fool....
Lovin' both of you is breakin' all the rules...

onion 4 women , cheese 4 men
Scientists at Firmenich, a company in Geneva that researches flavours and smells for the food and perfume industry, took samples of armpit sweat from 24 men and 25 women after they had spent time in a sauna or 15 minutes on an exercise bike.
When the samples were analysed, the team found those from women contained high amounts of an odourless sulphur-containing compound, according to New Scientist magazine.
When this mixed with bacteria usually found under the arm, it was transformed into a chemical called thiol, well known for its onion-like smell.
Men however sweat in a different way - scientists found high levels of an odourless fatty acid which released a cheesy smell when exposed to enzymes produced by bacteria in the armpits.
Christian Starkenmann, who led the study, said: “Men smell of cheese, and women of grapefruit or onion.”
A team of independent testers recruited by the scientists also found the smell from women’s armpits was more unpleasant.
It is thought the study could be used to develop deodorants .
