"Appreciating neotenous features isn't the same as being sexually attracted to children, but at least one study has found that average, college-age heterosexual males and child molesters share remarkably similar (and deeply neotenous) attractions: high cheekbones, unwrinkled eyes, glabrous skin."This John Cloud article, Does Beer (Goggling) Affect Whom We Find Attractive?, may be the most disturbing article ever. At least for today. The study findings seem like common knowledge, but the stuff about attraction to juveniles/youthful features is gross. I feel like this is something that I would learn from Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.
I never want anything dealing with me to be compared with a "child molester." Yuck! Thanks, Mari for grossing me out today. Usually it is the other way around...
