I think it's more hormonal myself. I will certainly (at some point)
appraise a woman sexually. It doesn't mean I'm going to jump her / make a
pass or anything (I'm happily married and monogamous for the last 18
years. In fact IIRC I have been pretty much monogamous for most of my
life!), it's just hormonal. It doesn't interfere with my working with
women, asking their advice or anything. It *does* subtley affect my
interaction with them though; I _do_ tend to be somewhat flirtatious but I
don't think I'll carry on in such a fashion if it appears that it's
inappropriate. I suspect I'd be more likely to ask a woman peering into
the internals of a machine if she needed help than to ask a man but I'm
not sure since I'm most likely to nose in anyhow!
At the same time, I'm pretty sure very few hetero females could pass a
rippling muscled tanned (or whatever) male without thinking of some
variation on "YUM!" :)
