The Ideal Husband

    Science now might be able to explain women’s fascination with Brad Pitt’s face and George Clooney’s eyes. Women seem to __ 1__ potential mates by how masculine their features are, new research shows. Men with square jaws and well-defined brow ridges1 are seen as good short-term partners, __2__ those with more feminine traits such as a rounder face and fuller lips are perceived as better long-term mates.

    In the study by Daniel Kruger at the US’s University of Michigan, 854 subjects viewed a series of __3__ head shots that had been digitally changed to exaggerate or minimize masculine traits2 They then __4__ questions about how they expected the men in the photos to behave.

    Most participants said that those with more masculine features were __5__ to be risky, competitive, and more apt to fight, challenge bosses, cheat on spouses and put less effort into parenting. Those with more feminine __ 6__ were seen as good parents and husbands, hard workers and emotionally supportive mates.

     But, despite all the negative characteristics, when asked who they would choose for a short-term relationship, women selected the more masculine __7__ men. Brad and George, both chiseled jaws and well-defined brows, then would be good for a __8__ romance, not for something longer.

    The study was published in the December issue of the US journal Personal Relationships.

    Kruger said that from an evolutionary perspective, this __9__ sense. The key is testosterone, the hormone responsible __10__ the development of masculine facial features and other sexual characteristics. It has been found to affect the body’s ability to fight disease: men with high levels of the hormone are typically __11__ and healthy- traits women want to pass on to their children.

     However, increased testosterone has also been linked to __12__ and violence in relationships．So，these men __13__ produce high quality offspring，but they don’t always make great parents or faithful mates，Kruger says．
The scientific community have __14__ skepticism toward physiognomy, which links facial characteristics to certain behavioral traits．But Kruger argues that the research is a valuable tool for understanding mating strategies．And，of course，for explaining why Tony Leung and Takeshi Kanesshiro have millions of female __15__．It might have to do with their genes．Or something to do with ours．
