Love potion #9!
Unlocking the Secrets of Love – Neuroscientists Have Identified the "Chemical Imprint of Desire”
While I take this with a grain of salt it does open up some fascinating ethical questions.
In theory then it may be possible to create a love potion that really works. What then? Will it be a crime to use it on someone who isn't interested in you? What would you charge such a person with? And if so how do you get the victim to prosecute?
While all the scientists did was find a flood of dopamine when with someone we love, and it seems unlikely we could create a love potion as such, it does bring up interesting possibilities. For instance, it is well-known that love fades over time. What of the married couple that loves each-other but wants to go back to the excitement and joy of their early days? Could they take a pill, or give themselves shots, to fall back in love?
And what happens when such a couple die from heart attacks because they are going at it like horny teenagers night and day? Can the manufacturer be sued?
It present multiple fascinating prospects.
