This study examined the approach behaviour of men
to women lying on a well-known beach.
The women were reading, (well- known)
lying flat on their stomachs
some with a tattoo prominently displayed
on their lower backs. On a well-known beach,
women were reading, (flat
on their well- known stomachs)
some with a tattoo on their lower backs,
some without. On a well-known beach
men were more likely to approach
the women with visible tattoos
not because they found them
to be more attractive but because
the women (well-known reading
on their lower backs) because
they believed the tattooed women
(the men well-known, the women lying
on their flat stomachs)
but because they believed the tattooed women
would be more likely to have sex
(well-known prominently displayed
on their lower backs)
more likely to have sex
on the first date
than their clear-skinned counterparts.
