Brian sees an attractive woman wearing a red shirt. How might his description of her wearing a red shirt differ from his description of her wearing a blue shirt? Why?

What will be an ideal response?


A good answer would include the following key points:
- In research studies, men who saw women wearing red (as opposed to blue) shirts rated them as more attractive, were more likely to ask the woman out, and were more likely to want to have sex with her.
- Researchers think that red is explicitly linked to sexuality across time and culture.
