Men have often been accused of judging women on looks alone, but even plain-ordinary women can get their hormones raging, a study has found. According to the Daily Telegraph of London, “research involving a group of male students found that their levels of hormones testosterone increased to the same extent whether they were talking to a young woman they found attractive – or to one they didn’t fancy much at all. During the experiment, they were left alone in the same room as a woman they had never met before, and in some cases with women they were not attracted to. Nevertheless, the men’s testosterone levels of the hormone had shot up by an average of about eight percent. The authors of the study believe the rise in testosterone may be an automatic and unconscious reaction which has evolved in man when meeting a woman, to prepare him for possible mating opportunities. As reported by the Telegraph, “the rising levels may fuel more visible changes in male behavior that occur in the presence of a woman, including a squaring of the shoulders, an upright posture and greater use of hands – end even, it is suggested, a flaring of the nostrils.” To read the entire article from the Daily Telegraph, link here:
