I only have eyes for you: Ovulation redirects attention (but not memory) to attractive men.
A number of studies have found a disjunction between women's attention to, and memory for, handsome men. Although women pay initial attention to handsome men, they do not remember those men later. The present study examines how ovulation might differentially affect these attentional and memory processes. We found that women near ovulation increased their visual attention to attractive men.

متن کاملWhy do females find ornaments attractive? The coercion-avoidance hypothesis
Vertebrates show two major classes of sexually dimorphic traits: weaponry and ornaments. However, Darwin could not explain why their expression varies so much across lineages. We argue that coercion-avoidance can explain both the existence and taxonomic distribution of ornaments. Females maximize their fitness when they can freely choose their mates, but males are expected to use sexually dimor...

Two types of attractive females were included: sexy females and beautiful females. Se...
متن کاملNo, Small Probabilities Are Not "Attractive to Sell": A Comment

Far less is known, however, about tradeoffs between male traits that affect mate attraction than about tradeoffs between other types of traits. Previous results indicate that females of the variable field cricket, Gryllus lineaticeps, pref...
