    there is a

    quick antidote to being struck dumb by the ladies. take a slow deep breath and say slowly hi my name is... blah blah

    blah. The main thing is getting past that moment and all will be fine.

    Pretty women scramble men\'s ability to assess the future

    00:01 10 December 03



    NewScientist.com news service

    Psychologists in Canada have finally proved what women have long suspected -

    men really are irrational enough to risk entire kingdoms to catch sight of a beautiful face.

    Biologists have

    long known that animals prefer immediate rewards to greater ones in the future. This process, known as

    \"discounting the future\", is found in humans too and is fundamental to many economic models.

    Resources have a

    value to individuals that changes through time. For example, immediately available cash is generally worth more than

    the same amount would be in the future. But greater amounts of money in the future would be worth waiting for under

    so-called \'rational\' discounting.

    But some people, such as drug addicts, show \'irrational\'

    discounting. For example, preferring a small amount of heroin today rather than a greater amount in the

    future.

    Margo Wilson and Martin Daly of McMaster University in Hamilton, Canada decided to investigate

    discounting behaviour and see if it varied with sexual mood.

    Male students, when shown pictures of pretty women,

    were more likely to opt for short-term economic gain than wait for a better reward in the future.

    Sexual

    opportunity

    Both male and female students at McMaster University were shown pictures of the opposite sex of

    varying attractiveness taken from the website \'Hot or Not\'. The 209 students were then offered the chance to

    win a reward. They could either accept a cheque for between $15 and $35 tomorrow or one for $50-$75 at a variable

    point in the future.

    Wilson and Daly found that male students shown the pictures of averagely attractive women

    showed exponential discounting of the future value of the reward. This indicated that they had made a rational

    decision. When male students were shown pictures of pretty women, they discounted the future value of the reward in

    an \"irrational\" way - they would opt for the smaller amount of money available the next day rather than wait for

    a much bigger reward.

    Women, by contrast, made equally rational decisions whether they had been shown pictures of

    handsome men or those of average attractiveness.

    \"We have not elucidated the psychological mechanisms

    mediating our results,\" says Margo Wilson. \"But we hypothesise that viewing pictures of pretty women was mildly

    arousing, activating neural mechanisms associated with cues of sexual opportunity.\"

    Tommaso Pizzari, an

    evolutionary biologist at Leeds University, offers another possible explanation: \"If there\'s the prospect of

    getting a very attractive partner it may pay a man to take more risks than if an average partner was available.\"



    He told New Scientist: \"If this is a response to sexual selection then you would expect men who are less

    attractive to take more risks. If you have many attractive potential partners then it does not pay to take risks. If

    you are less attractive, with few potential partners, then it pays to take risks.\"

    I don't think pretty women make

    man dumb.
    The reason why man make dumb decisions after seen a pretty woman is pretty simple.
    Take Phermones for

    instance.
    A reaction to a "hit" is 30 sec blind staring, with usually accompnay with a blank in the mind, the

    inability to think, the loss of train of thought.
    This applies to women seeing a hot man, and man seen a hot

    women.
    So, when you see a hot looking women, man's sexual urges triggers which results in a "blank" in the

    mind.
    Have you ever talked to your friend about a highly intellectual discussion and when you see a pretty women

    walk by, you bacially loose what you were saying or just don't make sense anymore.
    Same thing, you just basically

    loose your train of thought that is all.
    People make it more complicated than it seems.
    Another reason could be,

    your "creative" side your your brain overwhelms the "rational, mathematical" side of your brain, since I beleive all

    of us will right away have fantasies like ,"boy would I want a piece of her", "I wonder how she looks naked"

    etc.
    All this make a man seem dumb but in fact it's just simply the mind going into a "dreamy" state.
