"We don&amp;amp;#8217;t love men just for their looks, of course, but let&amp;amp;#8217;s be shallow for just a minute mmkay?A couple of studies came out this week about the attractiveness of certain physical features of men, so I thought we could talk about them--because really, I&amp;amp;#8217;m always looking for an excuse to parse through stock photos for pictures of hot guys. First up: shaved heads. According to a study, men with shaved heads are seen as more dominant, confident and masculine than guys with hair. Interesting, since supposedly baldness in general tends to lessen a man&amp;amp;#8217;s attractiveness. I&amp;amp;#8217;ll admit that I don&amp;amp;#8217;t like when a guy is balding (although hey, I don&amp;amp;#8217;t judge too much--I&amp;amp;#8217;ve got a gray hair and some cellulite and I expect guys to love me anyway) I think a guy who rocks a shaved head can be totally sexy. Exhibit A: I think it&amp;#x27;s perceived as confident because it is! Even if a guy is losing hair, it takes some nerve to shave off the security blanket that most people think of their hair as. A guy that confident can&amp;#x27;t help but be attractive, if you ask me. Side note: I love that the guy behind this study conducted it because of the reactions he got when he shaved his own head. Using science to justify your style choices? I get it, dude. Second: Ruddy cheeks. According to new research, women find &amp;quot;red-faced&amp;quot; men to be more attractive. Apparently in an experiment where women could alter men&amp;#x27;s appearances, they were all about making men&amp;#x27;s cheeks a little pinker. This isn&amp;#x27;t exactly shocking, since it&amp;#x27;s perceived to be a sign of good health (and duh, I look so much prettier myself with a bit of blush on), but like a shaved head, red cheeks apparently indicate more dominance, aggression and attractiveness in men&amp;amp;#8217;s faces. Hmm. I&amp;#x27;ve always thought of a guy with rosy cheeks as looking very sweet, but maybe that&amp;#x27;s because I have fond memories of a childhood crush on a redhead with the ruddiest cheeks. So adorable. See? A benefit to cold weather is how cute it makes guys look! OK, your turn: What do you think of guys with shaved heads? What about ruddy cheeks? Are these things turn ons or turn offs? More hot guys: *The Handsome Man Interviews: Ben A.
