Cats turn women into sex kittens
When you cuddle your cat, you could be picking up more than you reckoned on.A microscopic parasite which the pets can pass on to humans may cause personality changes, scientists have discovered.
It can make women behave like ‘sex kittens’ and men like ‘alley cats’. More than a fifth of Britons are infected without knowing it, and there is no way of getting rid of it.
Women who are affected spend more on clothes and are consistently rated as more attractive, an international study has shown. They are more confident and less willing to conform to accepted moral standards.
Researcher Professor Jaroslav Flegr said: ‘We found they were more easy-going, more warmhearted, had more friends and cared more about how they looked.
‘However, they were also less trustworthy and had more relationships with men.’
In contrast, infected men become more anti-social, suspicious and jealous, more aggressive, scruffier and less attractive to women.
‘They tended to dislike following rules,’ said the professor.
So, basically, no one should be sexier than a crazy cat lady .
(I’m not putting great stock in this one for now, but will be on the lookout for further research.)
