Yup, it’s a well known fact. Supposedly women are attracted to less masculine men when on birth control pill.
Women even report enjoying their husband's smell until they stop taking birth control and their husband suddenly smells very different to them.
Additionally studies do show that women not on birth control tend to like masculine, bearded men, while the opposite is true on birth control.
