Maybe you'll meet some hot guy at the race? I bet the ratio of men to women will be favorable
As for the MLC "brain tumor" - funny, I've been thinking about this lately. I was reading an excellent book called Incognito by a neuroscientist. He talks a lot about brain biology and behavior. (Did you know that the Texas tower shooter had a brain tumor? And that he left a suicide note saying his brain should be examined because he felt something was going wrong?).
Who knows to what extent brain pathology or biology plays a role? Do more men have affairs when their wives approach menopause and no longer send out "fertile" pheromone signals? Do brain trauma (my ex had several concussions) or ministrokes or prescription drug side effects or early Alzheimer's or declining testosterone levels affect midlife men in such a way as to trigger MLC behavior? We know, for instance, that in some cases, Parkinson's drugs can trigger compulsive gambling or sex addiction.
Whatever the cause - sociological, biological, or both - they definitely do behave in a lot of weird ways.
