Are men with beards more attractive?

Beards. We know, they are fashionable and it is more than common to see any man wearing a beard of ten days or more, a bushy and well trimmed beard framing his features.Why is this phenomenon ? A few years ago, those neat men who wore fine skin free of hair were valued more, men who took care of their physical appearance to the extreme.

At present, taking care of yourself is not lacking in that image more casual, relaxed and masculine, where to wear a smooth, well-trimmed beard that apparently makes them seem more attractive to the female public .But is this true? We'll talk to you about the studies done in this regard.

The beard in times of crisis

A study by the University of South Wales has reached the curious conclusion that yes, that women, on average, end up being more attracted to the men with beards .In fact in ancient times both a man with a beard and a woman with large breasts and wide hips were appreciated.The professors of this study are Professors Barnaby J.Dixon and Robin C., who monitored the responses and reactions of 351 women who were I show the photographs of 171 men.

These gentlemen swung between shaves or neat and perfect, the five-day unshaven, the ten-day beard , and finally, men with a completely bushy face.The results? You guess? The ten-day beard, of course.The researchers asked the girls why they were more attracted to this type of image, responded that they seemed more mature, masculine and attractive men.But yes, the beard should be well trimmed and with a fair density, not excessively dense.

For many sociologists, however, is the image of the beard intimately conditioned by economic crises.Surprised? When the global economic crisis broke out in 2008, it is said that many men began attending job interviews with a different image.They no longer worried about that impeccable shave with which to present themselves to a labor selection.Now they came with a beard, and, indeed, they were given an advantage over the rest.Believe it or not, thereafter they began to think that being shaved reflected a pre-crisis state, while having the beard grown, gave the Impression of adaptation.Curious, right?

In fact these researchers have several really amazing data throughout history that reflect the following:

After the fall of Wall Street in the 20s, there is circumstantial evidence that the beards were enlarged.This and other data are arguments in favor of economic conditions laying the foundation for the length of the beards.

Reality or simple passing fashion, It is clear that everyone is free to assume it or not, but if you are one of those who think that with this image you will be able to attract the attention of women, remember: ten-day beard well trimmed.

The last prediction of Albert Einstein, made within the framework of the theory of relativity just a hundred years ago , has just been confirmed thanks to a detection made by LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory ) In Science Daily Online we want to share with you some extraordinary information about this discovery. Gravitational waves: once again, Einstein was REASON In 1916 Albert Einstein predicted the existence of gravitational waves , and made a small mistake: I believe that these could never be detected by humans, due to the time and the immense space that would separate us from them.In the 80's a group of physicists and astronomers set out to contradict this statement and at the same time demonstrate Einstein's latest prediction; for this they designed an experiment that would involve the construction of a special observatory (LIGO), and the participation of more than a thousand scientists from fifteen countries.
