Why are men attracted to blondes?

 

Scientists have given us the answer...

Men aren't always forthcoming about their attraction to blondes. But there's no denying that blondes with flowing, golden hair are widely considered beautiful and alluring. This explains the popularity of hair dye – many women choose to go blonde. But what is it about these light-haired ladies that captures our attention? Why do we find ourselves speechless and heart-fluttered when we see them?

 

Science may hold the answer.

 

While blondes seem ubiquitous today, natural blondes are actually quite rare. Only about 5% of women worldwide are naturally blonde. This very rarity might be the key.

 

Imagine our ancestors, without access to modern cosmetics and dyes. Back then, blondes were exclusively natural. This rarity meant that encountering a woman with golden hair would have been a delightful surprise, something truly out of the ordinary.

 

The spark of excitement triggered by seeing a blonde may be subconsciously ingrained in us. That's why our hearts might still give a little jump when we see them today. Blondes, then, hold a special allure because they were essentially goddesses of beauty to our ancestors, their perception of beauty passed down through our very DNA.

The hottest sex scenes we've ever seen in movies

Sexuality, romance and erotica have long been central themes in cinematic storytelling.

Hollywood, as a major center of global entertainment, responds to the public's desire for stories involving romance, attraction and physical intimacy. In fact, movies that include sex in their plot often attract more people to the theaters, because they stimulate the imagination, or at least it was like that in the glorious 90s, when sex scenes were not particularly censored.

Although many films try to capture the passion and excitement of the moment, they often fail, while there are masterpieces that we will never forget. Today we have compiled a list of the 8 best, most passionate, most touching and funniest sex scenes of all time.

1. Don't Look Now (1973)

Often in movies, the sex we see on screen is between two young, hot stars, usually played by Hollywood's hottest talent. We rarely see scenes of sex between older lovers, and this "rarity" was presented to the public by director Nicolas Roeg, in the psychological horror Don't Look Now, from 1973, with Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie.

2. Ghost (1990)

It's strange how one of the strangest romantic films of all time ended up being one of the most influential in the genre, and the film hosts one of the most sensual and passionate cinematic scenes of all time.

3. Basic Instinct (1992)

We don't need to say much about Low Passions. This film broke new ground in the film world after it was released in 1992.

4. Mulholland Drive (2001)

David Lynch is the king of surreal filmmaking. In his masterpiece Mulholland Drive we see something we have never seen before that plays with the boundaries of reality and fantasy.

5. Team America: World Police (2004)

Although sex is usually romantic and sensual, sometimes it can also be incredibly funny, especially if you know your partner well. And no movie shows this better than Team America: World Police as Trey Parker pulls off one of the most absurd sex scenes of all time using nothing but... dolls.

6. Black Swan (2010)

Inspired by the 1997 thriller Perfect Blue, Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan, a psychological thriller about "insanity," gave us some steamy scenes with Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis.

7. Blue Valentine (2010)

The 2010 drama Blue Valentine is so touching and so real that it really defies expectations of romance.

8. Blue is the Warmest Color (2013)

The sex scenes in Blue is the Warmest Color represent the fiery energy of youthful love and at the same time reflect the passionate love between the two protagonists.

Bootylicious Around the World: Where Do Curves Reign Supreme?

 

Ever wondered where the women with the most enviable curves tend to live? Well, a recent study by GitNuk (intriguing name, right?) sheds some light on this. It turns out, genetics and location play a bigger role than you might think!

 

The study looked at data from 17 countries and found a surprising mix of top contenders. South Africa takes the crown (or should we say the "booty crown"?) with an average buttock size of 105.9 cm (that's over 41 inches!). Argentina follows closely behind at 104 cm (41 inches).

 

But here's the twist – Sweden! Those stereotypically tall, blonde Scandinavians also boast impressive curves, averaging 103.9 cm (41 inches) around the hips. They join Greece (103.4 cm / 40.7 inch) and Germany (103 cm / 40.5 inch) in the top five. Interestingly, Brazil, often associated with beachy bodies, wasn't included in the ranking.

 

Now, let's talk about the other end of the spectrum. Asian women tend to have slightly smaller averages, ranging from 91.6 cm (36 inches) in India to 96.5 cm (38 inches) in South Korea. Citizens of Canada, France, USA, Australia, and the Netherlands fall somewhere in the middle.

 

So, what makes a big booty? Darcy Shapiro, an evolutionary anthropologist, explains that our larger glutes compared to other mammals are due to our upright walking posture. Lifestyle, diet, and even the structure of our spine also play a role.

 

But here's the fun part – it seems curves are not just about function, but also about perception. A study in the journal "Evolution and Human Behavior" suggests men find a 45-degree curve between the back and buttocks most attractive. Looks like those squats might not just be for sculpting, but for catching some eyes too!
