how much do pupils dilate when you are attracted or in love with someone?

@aaronq @dan815 @DangerousJesse @Loser66 @Librarian @Night-Watcher @phi @TylerSoSexy @kmullis6 @kavonta

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

That's too broad of a generalization. Do you mean from an adrenaline rush?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk... I heard something like tht the other day and I thought it was interesting..

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

This is what google is for.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know but im in school and I searched it but the web sites r blocked

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@nincompoop @Preetha @factor

OpenStudy (factor):

wait

OpenStudy (aaronq):

It's hard to quantify something like that because people's bodies differ slightly. Pupil dilation is a response of muscles in your eye to norepinephrine \((\approx adrenaline)\) controlled by the autonomic nervous system.

OpenStudy (factor):

hold on u mean for boys and girls

OpenStudy (aaronq):

it occurs in both

OpenStudy (factor):

by the way what got this question into your head

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I had tht question cause my bf said something like did u know ur pupils dilate when u r attracted to somebody.... and I thought... uhm.... like how much do they dilate.... a little bur visible to notice or so little u wont notice??? and isn't there an average on how much pupils dilate....

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

This is ridiculous.. Firstly, love doesn't dilate pupils. The adrenaline rush from lust can, however. It works the same way in men and women. Norepinephrine causes a reaction in the muscles in your eyes to retract, which, in turn, causes your pupils to dilate.

OpenStudy (aaronq):

"and isn't there an average on how much pupils dilate." no, probably not. I'm sure there are studies out there but not reproducible.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok..... well thanks a lot guys... :)

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

"There are even ten year olds on this site" LOL how the hell is that even relevant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im lost.... y??? there is nothing inappropriate we said or anything......

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

I'm just amazed by the stupidity occurring in this question.. Factor, having an Undead photo doesn't give you the power to be an idiot.

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

This is Biology, genius.

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

You two are both idiots.. I'm out.

OpenStudy (factor):

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

There wasn't a problem in the first place. Close the question and everyone leave; none of you are in any place to get onto users. I'm sick of getting notifications.
