 Hugh Grant and Martine McCutcheon starring in film Love Actually. |
|
It’s not men who spend their time secretly ogling women - it’s women, according to a revealing new study. And it is the fairer sex that gives their rivals’ bodies a good visual once-over, found Bristol University researchers, rather than their supposedly Neanderthal partners. Men are more likely to concentrate on a potential mate’s face. The academics came to their conclusions after asking volunteers to examine a range of different images, includingstills from nature documentaries, classical and surrealist paintings, and freeze-frames of couples in films. The last category included one of the final scenes from Love Actually, starring Hugh Grant and Martine McCutcheon, where the pair appear on a school stage together. Grant plays a fictional prime minister who becomes besotted with a maid at Number 10, and the couple end up kissing on stage at the end of a nativity play. Another scene was from the 1961 classic Breakfast at Tiffany’s, in which Audrey Hepburn’s tightly-wound character Holly Golightly tussles over a table lamp with her tenant Paul Varjak, played by George Peppard. The researchers found women weren’t interested in looking at Grant or Peppard: it was McCutcheon and Hepburn they focused on. They spent 61 percent of their time looking at the women in the pictures, and only 39 percent on the men. When they looked at the women their eyes tended to roam around the whole figure, while men concentrated on the face. Felix Mercer Mos, a computer science PhD student, who led the study, said: “This is counter-intuitive from a sexual perspective if you are thinking about desire, but it’s not surprising if you look at it in terms of sexual competition.” He continued: “The women might be checking out their sexual rivals, and comparing themselves with them.” He noted: “That’s speculation of course - I’ve no proof whatsoever.” Men did prefer looking at the women - but only just - by a margin of 53 to 47 percent.

一項新研究驚人地揭露說，總愛偷瞄女人的并不是男人——而是女人。 布里斯托爾大學的研究人員發現，更喜歡上下打量女性身體的是女性，而不是人們通常以為的男性。男性的注意力更多地集中在潛在配偶的臉蛋上。 學者們讓志愿者們觀看一組各式各樣的圖片之后得出了這些結論。這些圖片包括從自然紀錄片中截取的靜態畫面、古典主義和超現實主義繪畫，以及電影中男女戀人的定格畫面。 最后一類圖片包括休?格蘭特和瑪汀?麥古基安主演的電影《真愛至上》最后一幕的一張圖片，在這張圖片上男女主角一同出現在學校舞臺上。格蘭特扮演虛擬人物英國首相，他被唐寧街10號的女仆迷住了。在這個圣誕影片的結尾，這對情侶在舞臺上熱吻。 另外一張圖片取自1961年經典電影《蒂凡尼的早餐》，在圖片中，奧黛麗?赫本飾演的焦頭爛額的霍莉?戈萊特麗和她的房客、喬治?佩帕德飾演的保羅?瓦雅克因為一盞臺燈而起了爭執。 研究人員發現，女人對于看格蘭特或佩帕德并沒有太多興趣，她們關注的是麥古基安和赫本。 她們花61%的時間來看圖片中的女人，而只花39%的時間看男人。 當她們看圖片中的女人時，會從頭到腳全方位地打量，而男人的目光則集中在臉蛋上。 這一研究的領頭人、計算機科學專業的博士生菲利克斯?梅塞?莫斯說：“如果從性欲角度來考慮，這是和天性相悖的，但是如果從同性競爭的角度來看，這個結果就不奇怪了。” 他還說：“女人可能是打量她們的性競爭對手，然后將自己和她們作比較。” 他指出：“這當然是猜測——我并沒有任何證據。” 男人的確更喜歡看女人，只不過持這種想法的男人所占比例并不太高，僅為53%，其余47%并不是這樣。 相關閱讀 （中國日報網英語點津 陳丹妮 編輯：Julie） |
