雙語閱讀：女人餓的時候其實更喜歡胖子

　　摘要:無論男性或女性，當他們在饑餓狀態(tài)下出門交際時，都更容易受到胖子的吸引。當男性錯過了用餐時間時，他們更容易看上身材豐滿的女性，而女人在這種情況下也更傾向于選擇體型高大，噸位較重的男性。

　　It is a well-known maxim that you shouldn't visit the supermarket when feeling hungry, but new research suggests the same is true when going out in search of romance.

　　Both men and women are more likely to be attracted to people who are larger when they go out on an empty stomach. Men, in particular will choose more voluptuous women if they have missed a meal while women go for larger, heavier set men. But scientists warn that when then hunger is sated, they may not feel the same.

　　眾所周知，人們不應該在餓的時候去逛超市。但最近的研究表明，人們同樣不應該在餓的時候去尋找愛情。

　　無論男性或女性，當他們在饑餓狀態(tài)下出門交際時，都更容易受到胖子的吸引。當男性錯過了用餐時間時，他們更容易看上身材豐滿的女性，而女人在這種情況下也更傾向于選擇體型高大，噸位較重的男性。科學家們警告，當人們不再感到饑餓時，這種感覺不會持續(xù)。

　　Speaking at the Cheltenham Science Festival Dr Swami said: “Hunger can change your perception of who is attractive. If a man is hungry they prefer slightly larger women in general. For women then generally prefer a slightly heavier man. In studies, they hadn't eaten for about six hours and you could see a real difference in their preferences.”

　　在切爾滕納姆科學節(jié)上，斯瓦米博士說，“饑餓會改變你的審美觀。當一個男人感到饑餓的時候，他們通常會(比平時)更喜歡略為豐腴的女性。而女性也通常更喜歡略為健壯的男性。在研究中可以發(fā)現(xiàn)，當被研究者六小時未進食之后，他們的偏好就會產(chǎn)生明顯的變化。”

　　Dr Swami believes that when hungry, people are looking for partners who can supply them with sustenance, and a larger person suggests they have been successful at finding food.

　　斯瓦米博士相信，當人們饑餓的時候，他們會尋找那些能為自己提供物質(zhì)保障的伴侶。如果一個對象體態(tài)豐腴，正說明他(她)是很會尋找食物的。

　　However Professor Gareth Leng, of the University of Edinburgh, claims the phenomenon may occur because the same part of the brain, which controls hunger, also controls libido. “There is a good piece of science behind it,” he said: “Sex and hunger are too fundamental drives.”

　　愛丁堡大學的加雷思·冷寧教授持不同觀點，他認為，這種現(xiàn)象產(chǎn)生的原因在于，人腦中控制饑餓感的部分也控制著性欲。“這種現(xiàn)象的背后是一條堪稱真理的科學規(guī)律。”他說，“愛欲和食欲都是人的基本欲求。”

　　A part of the brain called the 'ventromedial nucleus' is full of 'cuddle hormone' oxytocin which controls appetite and sex drive. When people are hungry the hormone is being used to promote food cravings rather than sex drive so a person would subconsciously choose a partner who could 'feed them.' But when they are full, oxytocin then starts to promote libido and usual feelings of attraction kick back in.

　　人腦中有一個成為“腹內(nèi)側(cè)核”的部分，負責施放“擁抱荷爾蒙”催產(chǎn)素，正是這種催產(chǎn)素控制著人的食欲和愛欲。當人們感到饑餓的時候，大腦分泌這種荷爾蒙，以促使人們尋求食物、而不是尋求艷遇，所以人們在這這種情況下會潛意識的尋覓那些可以“喂飽他們”的伴侶。而當人們吃飽了之后，催產(chǎn)素開始刺激性欲，這時人們的審美觀又回復到了正常的狀態(tài)。
