The University of Florida, Florida State University found that physically attractive people almost instantly attract the attention of the interlocutor, sobesednitsy with them, literally, it is difficult to make eye. This conclusion was reached by a series of psychological experiments, which were determined by the people who believe in sending the first seconds after the acquaintance. Here, a curious feature: single, unmarried experimental preferred to look at the guys, beauty opposite sex, and family, people most often by representatives of their sex.

The authors believe that this feature developed a behavior as a result of the evolution: a man trying to find a decent pair to acquire offspring. If this is resolved, he wondered potential rivals. Detailed information about this magazine will be published Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

In turn, a joint study of the Rockefeller University, Rockefeller University and Duke University, Duke University in North Carolina revealed that women are perceived differently by men smell. During experiments studied the perception of women one of the ingredients of male pheromone-androstenona smell, which is contained in urine or sweat.

The results were startling: women are part of this repugnant odor, and the other part is very attractive, resembling the smell of vanilla, and the third group have not felt any smell. The authors argue that the reason is that the differences in the receptor responsible for the olfactory system, from different people are different.

It has long been proven that mammals (including human) odor is one way of attracting the attention of representatives of the opposite sex. A detailed article about the journal Nature will publish.

Great to hear from you again! It’s always exciting to see a new blog posting Sounds like you’re having a great time, and doing a great job keeping up with the languages! I know I had a lot of trouble just stumbling my way through Dagbani, but 6! That’s awesome!

Thanks for the small stories about ordinary Ghanaian’s too, I really miss the casual conversations with people a lot! Learning about people’s livelihoods from welding to tailoring was one of my favourite things to do on a bus ride, or just wandering around town.

Are you getting excited for the arrival of JFs in a few weeks? I can’t wait to start hearing stories from them, and how they fit in with your program.

Hope you’re doing well, and we’ll be missing you a lot this summer in Waterloo!
