Cute guys stinks!

eautiful ladies smells nice,
but unfortunally this is not true about handsome men. This was discovered
by austrian behaviorists recently. They asked 22 men to value the beauty of
the face of 17 female volonteers. |
After that another group of men was asked
to sniff the t-shirts the same women had slept in for 3 nights. The result
showed that those of the women considered to have the most beatyful faces was
also considered to have the most erotic bodyodours. The result thereby
supported earlier research aiming to prove the significense of the smell for
the choice of partner. BUT when the scientists did the same test with women
evaluating men, the result was surprisingly enough the total opposite.
The more attractive a man was considered, the less appealing was his smell.
The diffrence, according to the researchers, shows intriguing differences in
the ways men and women pick their partners.
