Newsflash: Sexy Women Ruin Men's Decision-Making Ability

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know that a beautiful woman will wreak havoc with a man's cognitive skills and decision making-ability.
But now researchers from the University of Leuven in Belgium have proven the obvious.
The researchers had male volunteers play a financial game, some of the men were shown images of beautiful women, and some were not. The guys who were shown the sexy images were more likely to accept unfair offers than men who hand not been exposed to sexy photographs.
You don't have to be a university researcher to conduct similar tests, just show your buddy a photograph of Jennifer Lopez and then offer to buy his new computer for $50 and chances are he'll go for it.
I speak from experience, I have a medicine cabinet full of lotions, cologne and other beauty aids that I will never use. I bought them from a gorgeous lady at work who sells Avon products. If she had suggested I purchase a comb, this bald-headed fool would be walking around with a comb in his back pocket.
If I walk into an auto showroom and the only available salesperson is a beautiful woman, I will walk right out. I know that she will sell me a Hummer, even though I can't even fit a Mini Cooper into my miniscule garage.
If you know ahead of time that you will have to deal or bargain with an attractive lady, take a cold shower, the more your libido shrinks, the more your intelligence grows.
I wonder, what will these geniuses at the University of Leuven seek to prove next: That rain makes grass green?
