do any of you know or have fealings about some enthogens working (or speaking) more twards one sex versus the other
and the different hormones and they way they might interact with differnt enthogens

i have herd for example that a ayahuasica brew with rue FEELS more female and cappi is more male

im just curious wondering if there is a significant difference between sex's (and entheogens)

i dont know where this topic belongs sorry if it does not belong here


THANKS
Human beings are perceivers, but the world that they perceive is an illusion: an illusion created by the description that was told to them from the moment they were born.

It is the nature of human beings to assign such labels...labels do not discount the duality in all things. The balance.

For instance, many people before me perceived "Datura" as feminine - for me, Datura is androgynous.

Draw your own conclusions... use your own terminology... I freely use "he" and "she" in respect to plants depending upon how they strike me, but I can't recall ever being literal about it except in the cases of species that do actually produce "male plants" and "female plants" and require one of each for cross-pollination, or "male blooms" and "female blooms" for those species that produce two types to the same ends.

I'm not a lick of help, am I?

i have never found any plants or chemicals to evoke female or male propereties. to me it is chemicals, they are its.
to me the female versus male words we put on some plants is a poetic notion only. it is pretty; it helps us to give images and feelings to other wise undescribable experiments, but i dont like to get words/concepts in the way of my plants/chemical experiences.

i like to fantasize weed being female for exemple, but it is merely my romantic and poetic mind which enjoys this. weed is female or male as a plant. and thc is thc, ie a chemical with certain properties, which properties everyone translates in their own way.
<source unknown> does anyone have a computer in here?

true i like to feal the same about cannabis (maybe because i smoke the female flowers  :wink:  )
but isnt it just chemicals like the hormones that make up the male female difference.....hmmm maybe i need to go back to biology

anyways i just hear so many people using the sex refferences i was just looking for opinions
