Science Confirms the Obvious

Slashdot brings us a study [PDF] from our very own Indiana University (go Hoosiers!) that confirms what we already knew: Men have no idea whether women are interested in them or are just being friendly. Interestingly, it seems that we are equally likely to confuse friendliness for sexual attraction as vice versa.

From the story:
Rather than seeing the world through sex-colored glasses, men seemed just to have blurry vision of sorts, overall. For instance, the college guys sometimes mistook sexual advances as pal-like gestures.
Morale of the the story - go for it, you never know. Good Luck!

P.S. How do they keep getting funding for this stuff?
