The Ideal Husband
Science now might be able to explain women’ s fascination with Brad Pitt’ s face and George Clooney’ s eyes. Women seem to【C1】______potential mate by how masculine their features are, new research shows. Men with square jaws and well-defined brow ridges(轮廓清晰的眉骨)are seen as good short-term partners, 【C2】______those with more feminine traits such as a rounder face and fuller lips are perceived as better long-term mates.
In the study by Daniel Kruger at the US’ s University of Michigan, 854 subjects viewed a series of 【C3】______head shots that had been digitally changed to exaggerate or minimize masculine traits(男性特征). They then【C4】______questions about how they expected the men in the photos to behave.
Most participants said that those with more masculine features were【C5】______to be risky, competitive , and more apt to fight, challenge bosses, cheat on spouses and put less effort into parenting. Those with more feminine【C6】______were seen as good parents and husbands, hard workers and emotionally supportive mates.
But, despite all the negative characteristics, when asked who they would choose for a short-term relationship, women selected the more masculine【C7】______men. Brad and George, both chiseled jaws and well-defined brows, then would be good for a【C8】______romance, not for something longer.
The study was published in the December issue of the US journal Personal Relationships. Kruger said that from an evolutionary perspective, this【C9】______sense. The key is testosterone(睾丸激素), the hormone(荷尔蒙)responsible 【C10】______the development of masculine facial features and other sexual characteristics. It has been found to affect the body’ s ability to fight disease: men with high levels of the hormone are typically【C11】______and healthy traits women want to pass on to their children.
However, increased testosterone has also been linked to【C12】______and violence in relationships. So, these men【C13】______produce high quality offspring, but they don’t always make great parents or faithful mates, Kruger says.
The scientific community(学术界)have【C14】______skepticism toward physiognomy(观相术), which links facial characteristics to certain behavioral traits. But Kruger argues that the research is a valuable tool for understanding mating strategies. And, of course, for explaining why Tony Leung and Takeshi Kanesshiro have millions of female【C15】______. It might have to do with their genes. Or something to do with ours.
【C9】
