Science & TV : Anatomy of Sex



Have you ever wondered, why some men are so shallow and care nothing more than the bust size or the hip of a woman? Why don't they care about the inner beauty? Why do men judge women according to their sexiness? Why they must use their eyes to make judgement first and not try to understand the heart of a woman?

Well, it may sound defensive because I am a man, but there are scientific reasons to explain this! It is a result of the human evolution, and it may well be related to the days when human were still monkeys!!!

It all began when our ancestors began to stand on 2 legs instead of 4, the way of living changed and so did the definition of sexiness and human behaviour. This program also addresses on the issue of what women look for in men, so guys might want to pay special attention to that part.
