Generally one thinks the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Well, the same can be said for women, according to a study. It found that they were much more interested in romance on a full stomach than when they hadn’t eaten。

通常人們認(rèn)為要抓住男人的心就得先攻下他的胃。而根據(jù)一項(xiàng)研究，這招對(duì)女人同樣適用。研究結(jié)果表明，女人在飽腹時(shí)比她們空著肚子時(shí)對(duì)浪漫表現(xiàn)出更大的興趣。

Brain scans carried out while the women viewed a variety of images showed that the women were ‘significantly more responsive to romantic stimuli after a meal than prior to it’, the researchers from Drexel University in Philadelphia, and the University of Pennsylvania said。

來(lái)自費(fèi)城德雷克塞爾大學(xué)以及賓西法尼亞大學(xué)的研究員們稱，他們讓女性瀏覽一組照片的同時(shí)對(duì)其大腦進(jìn)行掃描，所成的圖像表明女性在用餐后明顯會(huì)對(duì)浪漫刺激反應(yīng)更加強(qiáng)烈。

‘This data suggests that eating may prime or sensitise young women to rewards beyond food,’ the psychologists wrote in the journal Appetite。

《胃口》雜志的心理學(xué)家們稱：“這樣的實(shí)驗(yàn)數(shù)據(jù)表明吃東西也許能促使女性關(guān)注除食物之外的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)，或使其對(duì)食物以外的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)更為敏感。”

‘Across cultures, food and romantic reward are closely intertwined.’

“在不同的文化中，食物與享受浪漫密不可分。”

‘Courtship rituals frequently involve meals or the presentation of food, and while it is certainly a socially-influenced practice, it is seen in the animal kingdom as well.'

“求婚儀式往往涉及餐點(diǎn)或食物供應(yīng)，而這點(diǎn)當(dāng)然是受到了社會(huì)影響，在動(dòng)物王國(guó)里這一聯(lián)系亦存在。”
