"沙漏型"女性更聰明？

      “The cognitive development of their children is reduced, and their own cognitive development is impaired compared with those mothers with a later first birth,” say the researchers.

　　研究人員說：“比起那些晚生頭胎的女性，少女媽媽所生的孩子認知發(fā)展減緩，同時她們自身的認知發(fā)展也不健全。”

　　The study noted, however, that children born to teenage girls with traditional hourglass figures seemed to be protected from this phenomenon and did better in tests.

　　但這項研究也發(fā)現(xiàn)那些擁有沙漏形身材的少女媽媽生出的孩子不存在認知發(fā)展緩慢的問題，他們在認知測試中表現(xiàn)良好。

　　A number of scientific studies have shown that men are “hard-wired” to find women with a greater waist-hip differential the most attractive. No one has yet been able to explain this, although theories include enhanced fertility, better childbearing abilities and longer life expectancy.

　　許多科學研究顯示，男性會本能地認定那些腰臀比例相差較大的女性更具吸引力。盡管人們設想生育率、優(yōu)生能力及預期壽命更長與身材比例有關(guān)，但目前為止尚無人能解釋曲線優(yōu)美的女性在男性眼中更具吸引力這一現(xiàn)象。
