Women flirt with their backsides

-

MARILYN Monroe knew it and so did Jessica Rabbit “stick your bottom out if you want men to find you irresistib­le”.

Now scientists have found that it’s instinctiv­e to strike such a pose when an attractive male is near. In a study of sexual cues, female volunteers were photograph­ed by a woman.

She then pretended to have camera trouble and called in a hunk to take over. The snaps were compared and showed the women pushed out their behinds for the man’s photograph.

Researcher Zeynep Senveli said: “Women seem to arch their back when flirting.” – Daily Mail
