Face Body Sex

University of Texas psych graduate students Jaime Confer and Carin Perilloux are the architects of a brilliantly simple scientific experiment.

They put 375 college guys in front of screens showing a concealed potential short-term or long-term sex buddy and asked whether participants wanted to check out her body or face.

When quick bootycall's were presented, 51 percent of the guys chose to see her body. For potential long-term mates, 75 percent chose her face.

The results hint at all sorts of things that we already knew, such as the established science that in our faces and bodies can be seen dead relatives - killed by the pox, killed by babies too fat to fit through a vagina, killed by being too fat to outrun an enraged giant sloth, etc.

Beyond that, this study suggests that we should all pay attention to Jaime Confer.
