Girly Women Make Better PolItical Candidates

@@!Women with more feminine faces do better at the hustings

Washington, May 16 – Researchers have highlighted voters’ perception of traditional femininity, political competence.

The researchers used software called MouseTracker that was developed by the study’s senior author Jon Freeman, an assistant professor and director of the Social Cognitive and Neural Sciences Lab at Dartmouth.
