There have been a number of authors who have perpetuated the theory of the scent of a woman during her menstrual cycle as illiciting a behavioral response from animals.Gene Wenzel in his book Rutting Whitetails spoke about it.It has also been suggested that women during their menstrual cycle are more susceptable to harm,things such as a bull on a farm,bear attacks etc..
I don't know if there is any validity to it. It would be interesting to speak with a woman who lives on a farm or around pen raised whitetails to see what her experience has been.
