About This Quote
Staring is half the victory in love. The idea that you can win at staring comes from research by Helen Fisher, a biological anthropologist at Rutgers University who has studied the male brain for decades. She discovered that men are very visual creatures, so much so that they tend to be more attracted to women with glasses than women without glasses. The reason? Glasses are an indicator of intelligence, so men are more likely to be attracted to a woman who is smart, and therefore likely to be a good mate.
