This is kinda funny. A study tracking people’s eye sight on images and documents found that men stares at the private areas of all kinds of animals; men, women, cats, dogs, whatever. I suspect that there is an evolutionary reason for this, probably because men needs to assertively identify friend/foe/mating target.

Here is the actual article. Found it via BoingBoing.

[edit] I have some new thoughts on this phenomenon. I think this test is nether complete nor thorough. They should have cross tested male images and female images, in loose clothing and fitting/revealing clothing, front and back. I suspect girls check out guys’ butts and they also check out each other’s figures too. Guys, on the other hand, check out everything. So, this topic is misleading.
