Hot women versus buildings

[viking]

When a man sees a beautiful, sexy woman, he increases the brain. And that's not all. The longer a man looks at the pretty representative of the opposite sex, the better he begins to concentrate, to think quickly and clearly, make decisions, he even becomes more intelligent!
At least, so say researchers from the UK, where he conducted the test. During the study showed men photos of hot girls, their task was to find differences on images. Then the same was done with photos of buildings. The test results will surprise: instead of being distracted by consideration of women's charms, the subjects worked at 31% faster and 22% more confident than in the case of photos of buildings.

This came from a newspaper in Belarus. So if we hang some hot photos of women in our offices our productivity will increase? I dunno about that. Maybe its just a UK thing?

I remember seeing in the movies and hearing from my Dad, stories about "hot" pin up girls in WWII and I am sure it went on before that, BUT....try to put up any hot girl pic's today in your private office or cubicle in the GoodOl' USA and I guarantee you to be "unemployed" by the end of the workday (thanks to our liberated AW)! :evil:

Some women would say that this once again confirms where the male brain really is placed....

so effectively it was "spot the difference" - a bit of a no-brainer that men are going to scrutinise images of "hot women" a lot more than those of mundane buildings.

hardly scientific is it?

         As a maintenance pipefitter some years ago  ,as a test ,I put a picture of a fully clothed woman on the underside of my roll around toolbox lid ( the one I took to the floor ),to see how long it would take before I was told to remove it.   I was informed to remove my offensive picture before lunch.    This was a picture with the only skin showing was her face and hands.

About 10 years ago my desktop wallpaper was of a friend wearing jeans, a a long sleeve t-shirt, and roller skates, laughing. 
I was an AVP, and told by the VP that I should probably remove it. 
I said I would do that after every other person in the 24 story building removed every family photograph from their respective offices. 
I left up my wallpaper. 

The world is a crazy place.
