Interesting study, and from personal experience I totally agree. But not for the reason the researchers postulated.
A sufficiently attractive woman can simply scramble the thought processes of even a reasonable, clear-thinking guy. It’s not that he’s trying to impress her - it’s that his reasoning simply shuts down.
A woman I work with has had this effect on me every time I am near her for several years. It is completely impossible to control, and leaves my brain utterly scrambled for several minutes. I’m totally series.
It’s as if the brain synapses are “de-gaussed”, to use a retro tech term.
Amazing and really humorous, except for the not being able to think part. :)
My name?....What’s my name?
Well this just means most women will have no effect on a man’s concentration.
Holy blood flow, Batman, how could that be?
ONLY and I mean ONLY if you can keep from gouging out your eyes......
Men lose their minds speaking to pretty women....and bears crap in the woods....
“So, what kind of conversation could be held with her?”
A very short one.
I could state the value of PI to 100 digits looking at that pic.
LOL!!!!!!!
LOL. Lose their mind or think with the wrong head??? No need to reply. I do apologize if my comment offends anyone.
I think they are trying to figure the balloons.
Not true, I'm always reproductively focused, dude!
Oh goodness, thanks for posting the pic of the guys with his shirt off. Yes I can relate to what you wrote. ;)
So you want to jump on their bones.
I think that men have, being one, have THEIR, ideal woman imprinted, on their minds. Leads to some odd match ups.
For some reasons, wives experience both enhanced powers of observation and verbal expression, combined with a negative reaction to this loss of intelligence in their spouse.
Maybe scientists should investigate this also.
Reminds me of a show which was on Playboy channel.
(might still be, I canceled because their programming has become utterly moronic anymore)
A guy (the contestant) is unexpectedly invited to participate in a challenge contest for $100 dollar bills at a strip club. His job is to try to focus and answer questions asked to him by a pretty emcee, while another beautiful woman whose job it is to make him lose the contest, does her best to make that impossible.
It’s funny to watch. And so like the study says.
But a programming note to Playboy:
Most of your programming is so stupid it’s simply not worth paying for anymore.
