There were already apparently many "childish" comments but I thought it was a rather crude manner of expressing a psychological phenomena such as attractiveness being associated with higher "perception" of intelligence and promotions. I am not sure, are the great tits, or other birds for matter, affected by phermones in a similar manner to mammals? If I'm not mistaken, there is evidence for the release of oxytocin in response to phermone stimulation. I wonder if anybody has investigated neurobiological substrates of the long term neighboring great tits?
