Psychology Today (http://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/pto-20070920-000007.html) reports on a study by psychologist Geoffrey Miller claiming that the fertility cycles of strippers can influence the number of tips they get.
Dancers made about $70 an hour during their peak period of fertility, versus about $35 while menstruating and $50 in between.
Miller links the wage fluctuations to changes in body odor, waist-to-hip ratio, and facial features…
Women on the pill averaged $37 (and had no performance peak) versus $53 for women off-pill. The contraceptive produces hormonal cues indicating early pregnancy, not an enticing target for a would-be suitor. Birth control could lead to many thousands of dollars lost every year.

This seems so blindingly obvious, one has to wonder why a study was needed to ascertain this.
