Scientists at IOC release study
Ten Year Double-blind Study Shows Men Will Click On Anything Featuring an Attractive Woman
SCIENCE!

In a groundbreaking study, researchers at the Institute of Obvious Conclusions (IOC) have proven what every basement-dwelling keyboard warrior already knew: posting a picture of a gorgeous, attractive woman on any social media platform is the digital equivalent of waving a red flag at a herd of bulls.
The study, titled âA Quantitative Analysis of Male Predictability,â involved showing 1,000 men a series of social media posts featuring various images: a cute puppy, a graph of rising sea levels, and a woman in a barely-there bikini holding a margarita. The results were staggeringâ98% of participants clicked the bikini post, with 73% admitting they didnât even read the caption. âI saw tan lines and a cocktail,â said one participant, Chad B., 28. âWait, there was a caption?â
Lead researcher Dr. Ivana Schmergenberg explained that men will click on any picture of an attractive woman, regardless of context. One test post featured a bikini-clad model holding a sign that read âClick here for information on corn production in Yugoslavia,â and it still racked up 14,000 engagements in under an hour.
Women, meanwhile, were less predictable. Only 42% clicked on posts featuring attractive women, with many citing âcuriosity about her skincare routineâ rather than primal urges. âMen are simple creatures,â Dr. Schmergenberg noted. âShow them a pretty face, and theyâll smash that like button faster than you can say âpeer-reviewed.ââ
Rumor has it Elon Musk is considering an âAttractive Woman Filterâ for X to auto-boost posts featuring high cheekbones and low necklines.
Critics, however, warn of a dystopian future where every post is just a parade of scantily clad models hawking crypto scams and diet teas. âThis isnât scienceâitâs pandering,â grumbled Dr. Ernest Dullard of the Institute of Boring Truths. âWhatâs next? Studies proving water is wet?â (Spoiler: The IOC has that one slated for 2026.)
