The Science of Gaydar
From ScienceNOW Daily News: “Talk about “gaydar.” In just a fraction of a second, people can accurately judge the sexual orientation of other individuals by glancing at their faces, according to new research. The finding builds on the growing theory that the subconscious mind detects and probably guides much more of human behavior than is realized.”
Romantic attraction works just as fast. You CAN tell in milliseconds whether you are likely to have a thing with someone. Seems irrational not to mention unfair, but it’s true. From empirical evidence collected over the years, I’ve concluded that if there is no instantaneous attraction/spontaneous combustion between two individuals, it’s not going to work. But that’s just me.
