Silly Little Country

A Devastating Sentence

Women, however, were not affected by chatting to a handsome man.

But hang on, that probably does not matter to me!
The rest of the message (h/t Phil but not his blog?!) is pretty interesting.

The research shows men who spend even a few minutes in the company of an attractive woman perform less well in tests designed to measure brain function than those who chat to someone they do not find attractive.

Now that DOES matter to me! I try to contrive to be always speaking to attractive women. No wonder I so underperform!
There does seem to be a very dumb sentence:

Psychologist Dr George Fieldman, a member of the British Psychological Society, said the findings reflect the fact that men are programmed to think about ways to pass on their genes.

So whose genes are women programmed to pass on?
