The Palmer Effect: When a man turns a hot girl into a lesbian just by talking to her a few times. The girl effected suffers from Draper Syndrome. There is no known cure.
Friend 1: Man, he talked to Jen again today. Now she has decided to become a lesbian. She says guys just suddenly don't do it for her anymore, and she doesn't know why.
Friend2: Clearly Bob has a Palmer effect on women. He turns them gay within three conversations.
