Beer goggles last longer for women

Researchers found that women who drink even moderately develop a reduced ability to rate attractiveness in male faces, even when they are sober.

 

Those who drank were less able to detect male facial symmetry, a marker of attractiveness and good genes which is thought to play an important role in the choice of a partner.

 

In the research, young women classed as typical, non-alcoholic drinkers - who have up to 40 drinks a month - were put through a number of tests, including an exercise on facial symmetry.

 

In this test, the 45 women were presented with 60 pairs of male faces. One in each pair was more symmetrical than they others and the women had to identify it in each of the pairs.

 

Results show that the more alcohol the women had drunk during the previous six months, the lower her performance on the symmetry test.

Mythbusters did a show on this. If I remember correctly, Kari Byron scored the highest (i.e. higher beer goggle effect) than Jamie or Adam while drunk. Mythbusters isn't exactly scientific, but they're fun to watch.
