He once enraged an audience of young Mormon women, many of whom aspired to stay home with future children, by explaining that homemakers tend to be homelier than their working-girl peers. Since beautiful women tend to be paid more, they have more incentive to stay in the work force, he says. Interestingly, the net benefit is slightly less for comely women, who may make up the difference by trading on their looks to marry men with higher earning potential.
And some studies have shown that attractive people are more likely to be hired in a recession. Homely quarterbacks earn 12 percent less than their easy-on-the-eyes rivals. Researchers then categorize the subjects based on their relative attractiveness, and use those sets to perform experiments. They might compare how they act in games of trust. Or they might observe how others judge attractive, versus unattractive, people.
Technology plays a bigger and bigger role. A few years ago, neuroscientists at Duke University wired 22 college-aged women to MRI brain scanners, showing each photos of male faces of varying attractiveness, followed by written blurbs about the moral behaviour of the men they had just viewed. In doing so, they may have pinpointed the physical source of the beautiful-is-good stereotype.
In the Duke experiments, it surged with neural activity, not only when the women viewed the faces of attractive men, but also when they viewed the positive statements. To the researchers, this suggested overlap in what are supposed to be two distinct functions—judging attractiveness and assessing moral goodness. So, essentially, we appear to be confused, possibly to our own detriment.
If our responses to dishy humans occur in some instantaneous jumble of subconscious neural activity, how are we to protect ourselves from the handsome devils and femmes fatales of this world? These are not rational processes.
Among heterosexual college-aged men who were in permanent relationships, the good-looking ones averaged 2. No such link between appearance and infidelity surfaced among attractive females. This discrepancy lends poignancy to a thread that broke out a few years later on the online dating site PlentyOfFish.
But the lovelorn poster was having none of it. Its role in other arenas is more worrisome. A Japanese study published in , for example, concluded attractive young men are less likely, relative to women, older men or less-good-looking men, to co-operate for shared financial benefit. The researchers tested participants with one-on-one money-exchange games, in which mutual generosity could yield modest reward for both partners, yet required trust to benefit both parties.
The paper, published in Evolution and Human Behavior , found that young, attractive men skewed heavily to the selfish side, receiving more money on average and giving back less. Based on findings of previous studies, the researchers ventured that confidence in their appearance, or their capacity to obtain resources, enabled attractive young men to share less and take greater risks. In other words, they press their evolutionary advantage.
The impact on election outcomes varies from contest to contest. But it seems clear the beautiful-is-good stereotype operates on voters as surely as it does on lovers and money-givers. Our own Prime Minister may be a case in point. In February , 16 months before the start of the recent election campaign, public opinion polls in Canada took a curious turn. During the following year, his leadership positives never appreciably declined. His pleasing physical presentation became his most noticeable feature, filling the conversation void left by the absence of reliable information about his trustworthiness.
