Researchers discover the obvious

Sex cues ruin men’s decisiveness:

Men about to play a financial game were shown images of sexy women or lingerie.

The Proceedings of the Royal Society B study found they were more likely to accept unfair offers than men not been exposed to the alluring images.

The suggestion is that the sexual cues distract the men’s thoughts, preventing them from focusing on their task - particularly among those with high natural testosterone levels.

In other news, researchers discovered that ice is cold, and water is wet.
