Ladies, if you want a man at your feet, wear high heels.
Research shows that men are more likely to help a woman wearing heels than one in flats.
This assistance ranges from taking part in a survey, to chasing after a woman who has dropped a glove.
French researcher Nicholas Guéguen said: ‘Women’s shoe heel size exerts a powerful influence on men’s behaviour.’
Professor Guéguen first showed that men were much more likely to agree to fill in a questionnaire when stopped in the street by a woman in heels. And the higher the heels, the more willing they were.
When the women doing the survey were in flats, just 25 of the 60 men took part.
A two-inch heel made them more amenable, with 36 out of the 60 that were approached agreeing to answer the woman’s questions.
But when the heels rose to almost four inches, the number of male volunteers rose to 49 out of 60, or as Professor Guéguen put it: ‘Men responded more favourably to the survey request as soon as the length of her heels increased.’
Tellingly, heel height had no effect on women’s odds of agreeing to do the survey.
In another experiment, men were almost twice as likely to return a glove to a woman if she was in high heels.
Some 56 out of 60 men stopped or chased down a female who dropped a glove while walking ahead of them in four-inch heels.
The professor, from the University of South Brittany, said that men may see offering help as a non-threatening way of making contact with an attractive female.
His final experiment involved watching how long it took men standing drinking in a bar to approach a woman sitting alone at a nearby table.
A woman in high heels was chatted up almost twice as quickly as one in sensible shoes, the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior reports.
Professor Guéguen isn’t sure why heels make a woman more attractive but he says that it may be by that changes in gait and posture make her seem more feminine.
However, a previous British study found that a man can’t tell from a woman’s walk whether she is wearing heels.
女士们，如果你想有一个男人随时为你服务，那就穿高跟鞋吧。
研究发现，男性更愿意帮助穿高跟鞋的女性，而不是穿平底鞋的女性。
这些帮助有不同的形式，包括参与调查、追上丢手套的女性把手套还给她等等。
尼古拉斯·盖根·法国研究员（Nicholas Guéguen）“女性鞋跟的高度对男性的行为有很大的影响。”
盖根教授首先指出，男性在路上被穿高跟鞋的女性拦住后，更有可能同意填写调查表；鞋跟越高，可能性就越大。
当女性穿平底鞋做这项调查时，60名男性中只有25人参与其中。
两英寸高的鞋跟使男性更加活跃，60名男性中有36人同意回答女性的问题。
但当鞋跟增加到4英寸时，男性志愿者的数量增加到49人。也许，正如盖根教授所说，“随着鞋跟的增加，男性同意接受问卷调查。”
值得注意的是，鞋子的高度对女性同意接受调查的可能性没有影响。
在另一个实验中，如果女人穿高跟鞋，男人帮她拿回手套的可能性是不穿高跟鞋的两倍。
当前面的女人穿着四英寸的高跟鞋时，大约有56名男人会阻止或追上丢失的手套。
这来自南布列塔尼大学（the University of South Brittany）教授说，男人认为帮助女人是接触魅力女人的好方法。
他的最后一个实验是观察站在酒吧喝酒的男人和一个独身女人聊天需要多长时间。
《性行为档案》发表在美国期刊上（Archives of Sexual Behavior）研究报告显示，穿高跟鞋的女性几乎是穿普通鞋的女性的两倍。
虽然盖根教授不确定为什么高跟鞋让女性更有魅力，但他说，可能是步伐和姿势的改变让她们更有女人味。
然而，之前的一项英国研究发现，男性无法从行走姿势判断女性是否穿高跟鞋。
无论如何，酒吧里的女人都坐着。
另一种可能性是，高跟鞋在包含性内容的电影和广告中的使用，使男性几乎无意识地将其与欲望联系起来。
