7 Ways Science Will Help You Get Laid

5. You Can Tell A Cheater By Looking

So, you've scienced your way into a date, but how do you know that they can be trusted?

Well it turns out that you mother was wrong after all, and you can judge a book by its cover. In fact, there was a study called "You can judge a book by its cover" published in Evolution and Human Behavior that found that humans are intuitively able to pick out a cheater from a line up, but they just might not know why they're done it.

In the first three experiments, it was found that humans could more readily recognize and recall the faces of cheaters as opposed to cooperators. Even more amazingly, the fourth experiment showed that they will even think that they recognise a cheater, even if they've never seen them before.

It might be your brain's way of putting you on your guard, keeping an eye on the shifty characters in your life. So, if someone's face seems to pop out of a crowd, it could be that they're a no good, dirty rotten cheater. Or just really hot.
