High Heels Have A Strange Effect On Men
Flats may be all the rage these days, but a provocative new study from France suggests that high heels do a better job of helping women get what they want from men.
?Women?s shoe heel size exerts a powerful effect on men?s behavior,? Dr. Nicolas Guéguen, a psychologist at the Université de Bretagne-Sud in Rennes, and the scientist behind the study, said in a written statement.
The finding might not come as a huge surprise to women, but Guéguen said his is the first scientific study to test the effect.
For the four-part study, Guéguen asked four female confederates to wear flats or two- or four-inch heels and make note of their interactions with unfamiliar men.
In one experiment, the women stood on the street and asked passersby to complete a survey. When the women were wearing flats, 25 out of 60 men (42 percent) agreed to pause and take the survey. When the women wore two-inch heels, 36 of 60 men (60 percent) agreed to take the survey. And that number spiked to 49 out of 60 men (82 percent) when the women wore the four-inchers.
Female passersby stopped to complete the survey around a third of the time, no matter how high the confederates' heels were.
