Thursday, January 15, 2004And good looking individuals get different treatment in some situations you might least expect it, such as a doctor's office. “We see in medical interactions, patients who go to physicians ,and those of higher physical attractiveness, the physicians will spend more time with that person and will also spend more time answering individual questions that that person asked,” says Dr. Patzer. And this special treatment starts very early on. “For example, in a nursery, before newborn babies are released from a hospital, those babies who are higher in physical attractiveness, at this level defined as more cute , are touched more, held more and spoken to more,” says Dr. Patzer I have to confess, I'm guilty of this, at least when it comes to babies. I make more of a fuss over cute babies in the nursery, when no parents are around to watch me. (When parents are around, I make an equal fuss over everyone.) posted by Sydney on 1/15/2004 10:42:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
