Men have been known to have a cheeky gander at women on the beach, or walking down a street, or in a shop…or anywhere. But, from what I can tell, women don’t feel the same urge towards men.
If you frequently catch your man’s eyes wandering when a pretty woman passes by, don’t blame him, apparently it’s all down to evolution.
New research shows that while women are drawn to male faces that look familiar, men are more likely to rate someone they have never seen before as more attractive.
Psychologists came up with the findings after showing men and women pictures of dozens of different faces. The more women in the study saw pictures of the same man’s face, the more attracted they were to him.
But the men who took part rated the women as less attractive when they saw them for a second time.
So can science explain the psychology of why men check out women…? Let’s take a look.
The video is likely to stir up debate, as all good media should, and that’s certainly been the case at Viral Blogger UK.
Some side with the opinion that it’s a harmless trait hardwired into all men. A trait that manifests itself sub-consciously, and is without aim or agenda. Just looking, no touching – if you like.
However, I can also understand a a girlfriend feeling peeved and undervalued if her fella is caught peeking at a bikini-clad girl on the beach.
She may feel that her boyfriend’s eyes should be exclusively aimed at her, and to an extent, I’d agree with that assertion.
At the end of the day, while your man might take a sneak peek, the professor assures insecure girlfriends that if their relationship with their boyfriend is solid, then they have nothing to worry about.
He said: “More than anyone else in the world, he wants you. And if you don’t believe me, ask him.”
We’d love to know your take on the professor’s research and opinion. Who’s in the right in this debate? Let us know with a comment.
