Men only take a millisecond to evaluate their partners

Guys evaluate potential partners in less than a wink, and don't assume they're shallow because it's decided by genes.

Scientists tested the gender bias of appearance by a series of experiments involving 20 men and 20 women. They were asked to do some work and meanwhile, brain activity was recorded. The results showed that men were easily dispersed when they saw pictures of beautiful girls and women almost never distracted, Telegraph said.

Professor Mark van Vugt, who participated in the study, said: "It is obvious that men often take a long glance at it but that because of evolution, they must pay attention to the fertility of women and one The most recognizable sign is the beauty of the woman's face, not the shallow man ".

Van Vugt added that men give a quicker assessment of women than previously thought. "They know whether the woman is the right dating partner in a millisecond. This originated in the past and it helps men find the best partner to maintain the race," he said. to speak.

The professor said that women were not distracted by men's faces because they needed evidence that he was a good partner. "Women consider behavior to see if the man is trustworthy. So they make a slower decision," he said.
