Drunk Folks Good At Age Guessing, Not “Pretty” Guessing
Barely legal — new study into whether alcohol affects perceptions of age – EurekAlert!
The study found:
• Attractiveness ratings of minors (immature faces) were not affected by alcohol or make-up compared to more mature faces.
• Both men and women found minors (immature faces) more attractive than sexually mature faces
• Alcohol had a ’significant’ impact on making older faces with lots of make-up appear more attractive
• Alcohol had no effect on how old men thought women were
• Make-up influenced attractiveness levels when viewers had consumed alcohol –especially if the faces were sexually mature
This study from University of Leicester is important because it may help diminish the defense that alcohol plays a role in “sex with minors” cases. It is also interesting for anyone who has ever judged someone’s physical appearance after a drink or five.
