Bigger assets raise feminine confidence: Psychological research

Heavy cleavage makes women more confident and has eye to eye contacts while conversing says scientists of the Manchester University.

The scientists of the Manchester University for the first time conducted a unique study to establish a connection in between a cleavage-enhancing bra and increased confidence. The study by Professor Geoff Beattie calls an end to all `unwanted boob jobs.’ The scientists revealed that women with an enhanced cleavage were more likely to maintain eye contact and showed fewer physical signs of low confidence. Professor is quoted as, "My hope is that this research might deter women from seeking more drastic solutions to improve their confidence, such as breast augmentation, because it proves for the first time that what women wear can positively affect their behavior."

A total of 60 video recordings were made of female participants aged 20 to 55. Footage was compared of them wearing a push-up bra and wearing their own normal, everyday bra. Beattie and his team analyzed the three key micro-behaviors associated with confidence and observed their frequency within the recordings.

Smiling - which represents positive emotion and signals confidence increased dramatically by 73 percent when the women were wearing a push-up bra? Averting gaze and breaking eye contact - normally associated with low confidence - decreased by 41 percent, the Mail said Tuesday. And self-comforting hand movements like stroking of the chin or wiping the forehand, which indicates low self-confidence, decreased by 64 per cent during the trial.
