Does looking jacked always make a good impression ?

from 50% Facts · host Jim McDonald

We’ve always been told not to judge a book by its cover, but does that stop us? No! Even when it’s not a good idea. Why do we make these judgments?  We look at three physical characteristics that humans tend to let themselves be influenced by when judging the people we meet. Some things can be changed through reasonable effort (getting muscles), but others are much tougher (or impossible). Is being more muscular always a plus?  Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.  Listener resources:  Judging by faces: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/trust-games/202201/what-we-decide-about-people-based-on-their-appearance  Judging by height: https://www.apa.org/monitor/julaug04/standing  Judging by muscles: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/02/160224164349.htmDo you have a question for one of our Friday “One Good Question” episodes?
