"Looking at pictures of obese people makes us think perfumes smell bad, study finds"


"Looking at someone who is overweight or obese can alter our sense of smell to make the scent of the world around us appear less pleasant, scientists have found.

Researchers discovered viewing images of fat people caused participants in a study to rate odour samples as smelling worse - even though they were actually fragrance free.

The scientists believe the effect may be caused by inbuilt negative bias that many people have towards those who are overweight and obese."

Well...

Just lookin at land whales like these makes me sick, anyway :

That's a bit more inclusive and accurate.

Translation: The human species have been through a long process of sexual selection that has resulted in our natural repulsion towards fat chicks.
