Girl Talk

caroline-graham-swann-small2Hello my darling readers, in this dreary snow and ice things are going to heat up soon. Valentine’s Day, brings thoughts of sweet mysteries of love. Why are two people attracted to each other when millions of people roam the world? This rare and sought after splendor of love, the Eros type, has mystified people of all cultures since time began.

I recently ran across some interesting news about attraction between the sexes. In fact, I found the research to be surprising!

The first question seemed to be well known. Which female body types have the most magnetic effect on men? The caveman impulses are alive and well today, the well-know 36-24-36, bust ,waist and hip suggests men are hardwired to admire this ratio, Even blind men gripping mannequins, prefer this shape according to Radboud University in the Netherlands . This silhouette is irresistible because it most represents fertility, and men have been driven since primitive times to have a fiery natural need to impregnate as many women of childbearing age as they possibly can, Poor darlings, they have not evolved with time .

However man may be a bit more complex than he might seem at first… according to the University of Westminster, in London. Size alone can’t fully explain the human mating ritual.

In societies where food is scare or a famine, for instance, plumper women are thought to be the most beautiful, sexy and healthier… Also men under psychological stress are attracted to plumper women with larger measurements. This may be because a higher body mass index in women represents maturity, strength and self-reliance. However, be warned, once the stress has been erased, the primitive caveman core for the slimmer 36-24-36 type woman returns like nature has wired the human male to behave. Is there no hope for rewiring the current human male?? Oh, well!

Another interesting fact about men in their quest for a mate, the male species strongly prefer a woman with a high pitched voice instead of a sultry purr. Now that one really surprised me! Just think of all those sexy icon such as Mae West, Marilyn Monroe, Kathleen Turner, Joan Crawford and just about any femme fatal had a sultry purr.

Well, I guess acting classes, voice lessons and all the training this writer went through to erase any hint of a high pitch voice must not have been the most positive thing to do, if one is hunting for mate… As I stated in the beginning, attraction and the mystique of what force brings two people together has been a puzzle since time began.

Lovely ones, the season for celebrating love is upon us, just think flowers chocolates, jewelry and as far as I am concerned a true miracle and blessing to be loved by the man of your dreams.
