Men's attraction to women's bodies changes seasonally.

Abstract

Humans exhibit seasonal variation in hormone levels, behaviour, and perception. Here we show that men's assessments of women's attractiveness change also seasonally. In five seasons (from winter 2004 to winter 2005) 114 heterosexual men were asked to assess the attractiveness of the same stimuli: photos of a female with three different waist-to-hip ratios; photos of female breasts, and photos of average-looking faces of young women. For each season, the scores given to the stimuli of the same category (body shape, breast, and face) were combined. Friedman's test revealed significant changes for body shape and breast attractiveness assessments across the seasons, but no changes for face ratings. The highest scores for attractiveness were given in winter and the lowest in summer. We suggest that the observed seasonality is related to the well-known 'contrast effect'. More frequent exposure to women's bodies in warmer seasons might increase men's attractiveness criteria for women's body shape and breasts.

Zombies get philosophical
Category: Philosophy • Synaptic Misfires
Posted on: July 1, 2010 1:46 PM, by Evil Monkey










You may not think of our flesh-eating diseased brethren as being the thoughtful types. Maybe they are, maybe they aren't.


As Sci mentioned, I'm gonna be holed up in the Costco for a while so I got time to think about it. They're the slow-moving-undead zombies, not those ultra-quick "infected" (I hate those creepy bastards). I rolled down those big steel doors, barricaded them with anything heavy I could find here, gathered up all the lighting supplies for when the power goes out, bandaged up that bite on my arm, and I've taken to making jerky out of all this meat I've got laying around the store. I even got chainsaws in case they break in. Not my weapon of choice by a long shot since all it does is attract more zombies, but they'll do. I should be able to last a while. Other survivors are knocking on the door. I can't let them in, I might put myself at risk. Maybe I'll toss them some supplies from the roof later. If they make it.


So while I slice up all this beef and prep it for low heat cookin', I'm thinking about these buggers. Are they just driven by a bunch of chemical reactions in their diseased brains?They got a rudimentary consciousness in there someplace, right? Or do they? People normally think of consciousness as the ability to self-evaluate, to reflect on one's own mental state. Consciousness is frequently referred to as an emergent phenomenon, or one that can't readily be predicted by knowing all the properties of its constituents. For example, we can't really predict "wetness" from knowing the properties of a water molecule.


Some philosophers suggest that mental processes supervene on physical processes. That is, you can't reductively just break down all the physical processes of the brain and get a true understanding of mentation. That being said, though, you can't have the mental process without the physical. At least that we know about or can explain.


Hmm I'm getting hungry and these granola bars aren't cutting it. Guess I don't have to wait for the meat to cook, I can just start eating it as I slice it. Hey, it ain't that gross! Whole cultures make a dining habit of eating raw beef. Ever heard of carpaccio, huh? Steak tartare? Kitfo? Mmm. Funny thing is, the more raw meat I eat the less that bite on my arm itches.


Some philosophers would say that it is possible to imagine a universe just like ours in every way, with all the same physical laws, except that this property of supervenience doesn't apply to mental phenomena. That is to say, there's another universe out there with an identical "you", down to every last molecule, doing exactly what you are doing right now. Like making jerky. Mmmm jerky.


God I wish those survivors would stop banging on the door. I can't think with all that racket!


The difference between You and 2nd you (called Ewe) is that Ewe doesn't have the ability to self-evaluate. Ewe is not aware, Ewe is just playing out the fucktillions of molecular interactions going on in Ewe's body. And since all the same physical laws apply to You and Ewe, You and Ewe will continue to live out the exact same life. The only difference is, Ewe isn't aware of any of it. Kind of like those ravenous, flesh-eating fuckers out there right now, hunting down the last of humanity and tearing us to pieces with their jagged little teeth.


I don't really buy into this as an explanation for how consciousness works, because in this case consciousness really can't impact thought processes at all. It is a passive, useless thing. Personally I prefer to think that evolution shaped our mental processes by shaping our physical processes, meaning that self-evaluation serves a useful role in our survival. If I get out of this mess, I'm gonna head to the library and read up some more......


Dammit, stop banging on the damn door!!!!!!! RRRRRRRRRRR.


So anyway... self-evaluation. Yeah. What was I saying? Shit. Can't think. Hungry. Arm itches.


Tried raw beef, pork, chicken, turkey. I'm craving some long pig, and Costco doesn't carry that. Really craving it.


Time to go let those other survivors in.
