Sitting in a position of

One study suggests that people feel that those with expansionary postures will be more attractive.

Sitting on your feet can make you play an evil role in a morning bus, but a new study suggests that it can bring more luck in love. Researchers have seen, those who use "expansionist postures" - with their arms and legs spread out, their bodies sticking out - there will be a lot of sexual attraction in the "fast-paced" dating situations. "than those who sit with their arms crossed with a " lean posture ".

In his recent report, published last week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Tanya Vacharkulksemsuk, a researcher at the University of California, Berkeley, conducted two studies. First, she and her team, watched the vieo of 144 quick appointments and drew connections to what the participants rated each other. Those who sit in a position that occupies an area that is considered more attractive, both men and women, the posture of expansion almost doubles the ability to receive consent for a second date. Vacharkulksemsuk could see, even laughing or smiling was not as effective as using the posture to occupy the area.

Next, Vacharkulksemsuk posted photos of people in neat and open positions on a dating site. Again, people with school posture receive an interest from other members about 25 percent more. However, this tactic is more effective on men than women. Men, in general, are less likely to receive satire than women, but up to 87 percent of their agreement comes from responding to open positions. Meanwhile, for women, 53 percent of the consent was obtained when they were in an expansionary position.

In a separate experiment, Vacharkulksemsuk found that the "expansion" images of both men and women were thought to be more advantageous than "shrinking" images. That prominence can suggest an abundance in potential and is always ready to share those potentials. When potential partners are evaluating each other in just a few seconds, in other words, strong for rice because of money - mainly expressed by openness in posture.

But like most other studies, there is always a reason to be skeptical."Power posture" created a wave in 2010 when it was found that applying them could refine hormone levels - and then controversy erupted after subsequent studies failed to recreate the effect.

So do you want to quickly change your avatar to something less coherent and maybe like Backstreetboy friends?

Many researchers show doubt about the methodology of this study. Agustín Fuentes, a professor of anthropology at the University of Notre Dame, said that research could be a sign of social preference for openness , but open positions are not always sexier. . " The association with the dating reviews they give is quite superficial," he said.

Irving Biederman, a professor of neurology at the University of Southern California, says women who "expand" sometimes show thinness, not strong.

However, with Vacharkulksemsuk, the fact that the subjects in her research both evaluated the "expansionist" images of both men and women with superiority could signal the beginning of something interesting. . For decades, women have always been reminded that they are the most attractive when they show affection, holy voice, and generally not harmful. This data "may represent a change in what men look for in women , " she said.

Perhaps those who use public transport will have to prepare for a rise of women sitting on their feet.
