A latest survey shows that 4/5 of skydivers and 2/3 of rock climbers are men, and they engage in these extreme sports not only to pursue excitement, but also to win the favor of women.

Women are usually more picky and cautious than men when it comes to choosing a partner. Such pressure can prompt men to work harder to outdo others of the same sex and prove that girls are right in choosing them. Social psychologists at Florida State University have been thinking about a question: Do men take risks to show their strength, ambition and confidence to the woman they like? To find out, researchers recruited 134 people with bachelor's degrees in psychology.

The researchers showed the subjects 10 photos of beautiful and unattractive faces of the opposite sex, and then asked them to describe their current thoughts, such as whether they were looking for a lifelong partner. Then, the researchers dealt each person two identical cards and asked them to play a game of "blackjack." The sum of everyone's card points exceeds 11, but there is still a certain distance from 21. "Not bidding is a safe behavior, but bidding means taking risks." The researchers explained. The results showed that men were more willing to risk bidding if they saw pictures of beautiful women before playing the cards; and they were also more willing to bid if they were playing with beautiful women.
