Scientists Regretably Retract Our Excuse for Kissing Ugly People

4/21/09 - Posted by Mara Siegler under Health

For those of you ladies trolling the bars at last call looking for someone to hook up with, the drunkest guy (i.e. the one half passed put, falling over, picking fights, or vomiting) is not your best chance for success.

Science just thought you should know. Researchers, who have presumably given up curing cancer or studying “important,” things, asked a group of 240 wasted ladies and gentleman to look at photos of women and comment on their age and attractiveness. While women struggled with the age question, men stayed on top of their game and weren’t thrown off by such sneaky tactics as make-up. They also tended to find women less attractive.

While this is bad news for hard-up women who can’t get laid, it’s even worse news for men. Beauty is NOT in the eye of the beerholder. You now have no excuse for the women you bring home aside from poor taste, no standards, and total ambivalence in the case of minors and cougars. As medically stated by Dr Vincent Egan, from the University of Leicester, there is no such thing as “beer goggles.”

    It’s kind of unfair: pro basketball players are typically ginormous, but they’re always hanging out with diminutive cheerleaders, models and actresses. While we fully support the concept of giving the spoils to the victors (did you see our sweet news coverage, by the way?), it’s nice to know that at least one monolithic baller is [...]
