Beautiful women can be bad for your health, according to scientists

Sorry For All The Pics, just Trying To Make A Point Lol

Just five minutes alone with an attractive female raise the levels of cortisol, the body's stress hormone, according to a study from the University of Valencia.

The effects are heightened in men who believe that the woman in question is "out of their league".

Cortisol is produced by the body under physical or psychological stress and has been linked to heart disease.

Researchers tested 84 male students by asking each one to sit in a room and solve a Sudoku puzzle. Two strangers, one male and one female, were also in the room.

When the female stranger left the room and the two men remained sitting together, the volunteer's stress levels did not rise. However, when the volunteer was left alone with the female stranger, his cortisol levels rose.

The researchers concluded: "In this study we considered that for most men the presence of an attractive woman may induce the perception that there is an opportunity for courtship.

"While some men might avoid attractive women since they think they are 'out of their league', the majority would respond with apprehension and a concurrent hormonal response.

"This study showed that male cortisol levels increased after exposure to a five-minute short social contact with a young, attractive woman."

Cortisol can have a positive effect in small doses, improving alertness and well-being. However, chronically elevated cortisol levels can worsen medical conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, hypertension and impotency.

Ugly ones can be fatal.

But i guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder, or some shit like that...

This is the only 'organ' that might be affected, imo...

It's what's on the inside that counts, old saying i know but a good one. Also 'beauty' is in the eye of the beholder. I'm still looking for my soul mate, so where are you ? Perhaps we should have a disclose dating section ?

My old as hell mean fart bag of a boss - Lord, rest his soul - If you burned away all the bad in him the only thing left would be his shoes.

His saying always was, "If you stand them up on their head, they all look the same".
