Watching a curvaceous woman can feel like a reward in the brain of men, much as drinking alcohol or taking drugs might, research now reveals.

LOL! What is that look, perhaps jealousy?

I’m thinking it’s disgust that the blonde is “lettin’ it all hang out”

As tough a choice as that would have been I’d have to give the nod to Gina.

LOL, that’s just funny. Gina was no stranger to letting the girls hang out, as a quick look at images.google.com will show.

This is just one thing that lights up the brains of (normal) males like a Christmas tree. But if you really want to see fireworks, put a woman at perceived risk, and a lot of guys will go into a completely instinctual mode to protect her.

This is the unsaid, primary reason that women are not allowed in combat. Not because of them, but because a lot of men lose all sense when their brain tells them that a woman is in danger. It cannot be trained or conditioned out of them, their discipline and following of orders is forgotten, even in hardened combat soldiers.

Hollywood knows this, and uses it all the time in the movies, because they know that if they can create the illusion that a woman is at risk, the males in the audience will pay attention.

Wished I knew, looks like it might be off of one of the Telemundo type shows, but I can't be sure.

Thanks for the laugh.
