翻译公司最新消息: 然而,履历没起作用,这些女人们仍然选中了高个子男子。Sherr问她们,到底要她说什么,才能使她们义无返顾地选中其中一位最矮的男人,他只有5英尺。一位女人回答说:“除非你说其他四位男人是杀人犯。”另一位女子附和说,如果高个男子有犯罪记录,她可以考虑选一位稍矮一些的男人。还有一位女人说,如果有人说这些高个男人是“儿童骚扰者”,她可以考虑选矮一些的男子。
Nothing worked. The women always chose the tall men. Sherr asked whether there'd be anything she could say that would make the shortest of the men, who was 5 feet, irresistible. One of the women replied, "Maybe the only thing you could say is that the other four are murderers." Another backed her up, saying that had the taller men had a criminal record she might have been swayed to choose a shorter man. Another said she'd have considered the shorter men, if the taller men had been described as "child molesters."
对高个子的希望显然始于孩童。美国广播公司新闻频道在小学生中做了一项试验,要求同学们将小个、中等或大个男人与一些词汇相联,孩子们纷纷将大个男子与强壮、英俊和聪明相联,而将小个男子与悲哀、恐惧和衰弱相联。
The desire for tall men begins very young, apparently. ABCNEWS gave elementary school students a test, asking them to match a small, medium, or large figure of a man with a series of words. The kids overwhelmingly linked the tall figure to the words strong, handsome, and smart. The linked the short figure to the words sad, scared and weak.
