UK Psychologist ‘Explains’ His ‘Black Women are Less Attractive’ Theory

Posted on May 18th, 2011 - By Bossip Staff

Categories: For Discussion, Ho Sit Down, News, out of pocket, SMH, You Can't Be Serious...

In yesterday’s racism news, we presented to you what was said to be “objective” scientific data that explains why genetics, testosterone and intelligence are the main reasons why black women are statistically less attractive than women of other races. And today, we present the “explanation.” Let the ignorance begin …

What accounts for the markedly lower average level of physical attractiveness among black women? Black women are on average much heavier than nonblack women. The mean body-mass index (BMI) at Wave III is 28.5 among black women and 26.1 among nonblack women. (Black and nonblack men do not differ in BMI: 27.0 vs. 26.9) However, this is not the reason black women are less physically attractive than nonblack women. Black women have lower average level of physical attractiveness net of BMI. Nor can the race difference in intelligence (and the positive association between intelligence and physical attractiveness) account for the race difference in physical attractiveness among women. Black women are still less physically attractive than nonblack women net of BMI and intelligence. Net of intelligence, black men are significantly more physically attractive than nonblack men.

Hmm, so according to Satoshi Kanazawa, a psychologist at the London School of Economics, beauty and brains are out of the question for black women? Damn, sistahs just can’t catch a break!

The only thing I can think of that might potentially explain the lower average level of physical attractiveness among black women is testosterone. Africans on average have higher levels of testosterone than other races, and testosterone, being an androgen (male hormone), affects the physical attractiveness of men and women differently. Men with higher levels of testosterone have more masculine features and are therefore more physically attractive. In contrast, women with higher levels of testosterone also have more masculine features and are therefore less physically attractive. The race difference in the level of testosterone can therefore potentially explain why black women are less physically attractive than women of other races, while (net of intelligence) black men are more physically attractive than men of other races.

“The only thing we can think that might potentially explain” this garbage is the perpetual non-black/racially ambiguous social standards of beauty. And truth be told, even though black women haven’t been given much shine in socialized culture … many men of all races have an ebony fantasy. Don’t believe us, ask this guy … Mikhail Lyubansky, Ph.D., who also happens to be a Psychology Today contributor.

    If the issue is black women being “rated” les.s attractive than I cant really see the is.sue. Someone has to be at the bottom and in a country where blacks are a minority, were we expected to be rated the most attractive? That this guy tried to put a scientific/objective spin on his findings as opposed to it being about what people find attractive (namely people who look most like them) is where I have to take issue. Perhaps if this study was done in a country where there were equal representation of the races obviously the results will be different. People generally like themselves or a mix. The only outlier really is how black men were rated being that black men are similarly a minority in this country.

    Lastly and probably most troubling is that the results for the OKCupid internet dating findings seems to confirm this pseudo science. That black women receive the least replies from senders and white men receiving the most replies from senders. Apparently Middle Eastern women are quite popular acros.s the board.

    That’s not scientific that’s racist! There are attractive and smart women and dumbass butt ugly women in every race!! C’mon now.

  • Mrs. Rance

    Before I read this nonsense just let me say that when I looked up that story Psychology Today had removed it. I was “fortunate” enpough to find yet another outrageously racist negative “study” about black women. I have concluded the magazine is racist and is a forum for racist Psychologists.

  • so what?

    This man has always been preoccupied with black people! I wonder what his past was like? But even moreso I wonder how he still manages to teach at a racially mixed college?

    He should have done his study on how Chinese men are considered the least attractive males! It would have been far more in depth and credible since he himself is an oriental.

  • RMEs

    There really is no reason to respond to such blatant stupidity and ignorance. This man is suppose to be educated for Pete’s sake. The only thing more annoying than this “study” is that he is actually getting press for it.

  • FTW

    I’m saying who really gives a f*ck what these people think. OKCupid? Really? I can find a control group of men of all races who think black women are more attractive. It’s all relative. F*ck this study, it’s garbage.

  • Boriya

    Orientals are very ugly. They ALL look-a-like. They are short with thick calf, have round flat faces, and a flat nose bridge.Oh lets not forget those horrid slanted eyes that they spend thousands of $$ on to fix. They are just all around ugly. Not even a mexican wants them and you know Mexicans bang anything.

  • B

    I guess if you like flat asses, pale skin, and stringy hair I guess white woman are more attractive. I remember back in the day before technology can about how they really look. Black woman are most attractive except when the dress like hoe’s, run their mouth to much, and get in other people’s relation when ever they don’t have a man. Some are not satisfied until their girlfriend leaves their man and are single like them. That’s only until they get a man themself’s then their ghost.

  • getsome

    Whatever black women are the most desired
    Otherwise “nonblack” women wouldn’t be
    Getting big lips,arse, hips, and tanning to
    Be more attractive.Kawanzawa’s just tryna
    Tryna justify why his woman can’t stay
    Off the black ding, which in turn makes
    Black women have to bear that brunt. Asian
    Batches can’t stay off mandingo cuz black women
    Are ugly, so the black man must accept the asian batchs
    forwards. That’s what this is all about

    Black men see what we do for you smh

    he is not saying that all black women are ugly! he is saying overall they are less attractive! if the testosterone theory is correct, then take it up with your sky gods!

  • Mrs. Rance

    While this study is straight bull, I have always said that black women don’t have many options because other races don’t find us attractive on a wide scale. Despite what some may think, I am a fairly attractive woman who has never had a problem getting attention from brothas. Yet in my many years on this earth white men have approached me ONCE in my life and one other time one looked at me flirtatiously at a car wash. To say nothing of my legions of friends who have had the same experience. We are not as desirable as other races of women to men outside our race other than latino men. AND despite the fact that black men are open to dating many races of women on a large scale, rich men of all races desire white women. Now if I could see a real study on this phenomenon I’d be all into it. Its just that this guy is full of sh*t and doesn’t present any kind of evidence for his findings.

I have a beautiful mind, a sense of humor, can easily converse with anyone. I am not sure of why there is such an uproar about the African American woman these days, but it is getting really ridiculous.

  • Mrs. Rance

    Exactly. The good doctor is not attracted to black women so I guess he is trying to quantify that. He should have done a better job if he’s that into it.

    You have to remember when these “studies” come out who is doing the funding and what is the purpose? i find it funny that Black men are found to be the most attractive when Black men and women are of the same genetic material. this is apart of an agenda to tear down the image of the nubian mother of all civilization.

  • just me_sunflower

    I’m white and I think black people (man and woman) are the most beautiful race. My point with this is that every person has a different taste, so to say black woman or the least attractive is racist.

    I gotta agree with some the posts on here.

    I wonder if he saw the study about Asian men being the least desirable….especially among Asian men.

    That said beauty is relative. But its not shocking that Black Women would be least likely to be chose though. All the negative images of BPs, especially those BW are in peoples minds.

  • resurrected

    At the end of the day no one words should have such an impact on how you view yourself? To me there is always attractive to a person who refused to deal with BS and who knows there worth. No one can really define you to the point that they know what makes you beautiful and to the point that they know what steps in life one will choose to take.

  • JM@gic(Trini man for life)

    LEt black women tell it,know ones checking for us except them….aye the proof is in the pudding,and that says every woman is checking for us

  • YYYYnot

    Look everyone, this is just another one of the billion ploys white people are trying to pull to make us blacks hate ourselves and each other. 60 years ago blacks were so united and it brought about change. They refuse to see that again because we are all so powerful when we stand together united. There is no such thing as a race being less attractive because everyone is attractive in their own way. Why is this country so dam superficial? The last thing we need to be worrying about is being attractive. SMH!

  • clinique

    Typo

    I meant Asian men being the least desirable especially among Asian women

    But I have seen and know plenty of non-black men that love or are with BW so….this is likely not a truly subjective study.

  • http://www.aol.com Ben

    This man should be sacked from the LSE I hope people complain.He is short fat and ugly and is obsessed with black people.I knew some Asians could be racist but he has built his career on it.Read his pirce on how blacks are less intelligent and how we commit crime because that is what we are good for.
    Bianca take your pills and get a life, you are too pathetic.

  • Chill

    He really needs to do a study on why asians are the ones who are the most unattractive, the men are short with little wing wongs and the women have big heads, no ass, no breasts and they look like little boys.

  • FTW

    And black women are still doing better than you. I know you “think” you’re in direct competition with black women for black men but I’m telling you, you’ll lose every time. Your pale skin dosen’t age well and will wrinkle early; that’s not attractive. You’re brain washed and useless.

    Good to be a black man because ure being hunted and killed on the streets? You can’t study attractiveness because being attractive can never be objective. Plus, black women are the exact opposite of the standard of beauty. Black men make me sad with their we’re winning because other race finds us attractive, does ur self worth really come from a white woman being interested in u?

    This guy and his study can go to hell. I wish two things for the black race…both men and women and that is to stop letting other people define us. Surely enough it will be some old weak minded black men and women following in behind this bs. Just by the mere publishing of this study, it gives this study credibility. Where is it can I conduct and publish a study about unattractive white women. Look around at your everyday errands and you will see the most beastly,pale,flat lipped, stringy looking white person but you want me to believe I’m unattractive? Secondly, black males can you please stand up for your women like other races do?? Mexican and Asians stick by their short, flat tail, bad built lady.

    Jay you should follow your own example that ignorance is bliss, do you keep up to date with what is going on in the lives of black men.The lives of too many black men are spiralling out of control and too many with money are not giving back or leading as mentors.The statistics are alarming. One out of every three young Black males in America today is in prison, in jail, on probation, or on parole. Eighty percent of those dropping out of high school today are boys of color. In California the graduation rate for young Black males is below 40%. The U.S. Education Department tells us these boys represent 80% of those nationwide.How and where is life good for those falling through the cracks-wake up and grow up.

    This finding is not unusual. Black people as a whole are less intelligent and attractive than other races. It amazes me how black me look up to the likes of lil wayne and nikki minaj and than get mad when conclusions like this are drawn. How many EDUCATED black people have you seen? SERIOUSLY?
    The many blacks who are EDUCATED are primarily AFRICAN or CARIBBEAN. If black women felt they were so beautiful they wouldn’t be trying so hard to alter their natural appearance.

  • Nouveau

    Being in the minority is the LEAST mitigating factor for this consequence. Asians, Women and Latinas are also considered minorities in this country so this isn’t a reliable explanation.

    Black women get the least response because black women are the least desirable, black women are 70% single mothers, over weight, etc..
    and I am a black women (African) saying this!

    Middle Eastern women are GORGEOUS I have been saying this from the beginning. Middle Eastern women are like the ultimate beauty imho and there is nothing wrong in recognizing this, if I could choose to be any other “race” I would want to be Persian and/or Arab that’s just me.

    Truth hurts…but the reality is black women are less attractive to me of other races for a lot of reasons. The number one reason being that black women swirl less than any other race of women and can be standoffish when approaches by non blacks….not to mention the Nene persona thats perceived stamped as certified by the media….

  • Jay

    Lisa, its not what you think is beautiful, its what men and society deems is beautiful. Alot of white, Hispanic and black men don’t think light colored black women are beautiful compared to white women in the context of European beauty. Beauty is subjective to the women who are not the standard of beauty. Black women of all skin tones are not the standard of beauty and because of that it is subjective.

    Light colored women are not the Black standard of beauty so you lose both ways.

    If you look like a white woman but are not, you still are inferior to the product you are trying to look like. Anything that is not the standard is subjective. Women who dont look white or are not the standard are not pretty in the European standard, case closed.

    Asians are pathetic. In high school I knew a chinese guy that wanted to be white. He lied and said his mother was white then some students called him out and said his mom can’t even speak english. So then he said he was 1/4 white. Then he said he wishes he were white and he always smiled in the white and latina girls faces but then they told him off so afterwards he stop talking to ppl. He was just disgusting.

  • MR.MAKE.YA.FEELGOOD.(always read the fine print)

    I’m not falling for this BELL CURVE BS. (another bs study) When we read a study, survey or book there are things that we must consider before or after we read them. 1)the author’s backround. Does he have a ax to grind. Were his past viewpoints biased and slanted. 2)Who is funding the study and do they have an agenda. 3)That persons sources. If the authors sources are flawed then his study will be as well.. Another thing that needs to be known is what were the demographics of the people polled. I know for a fact that German and French men like black women. But if you ask a skinny surfer dude from Cali a curvy sister might not be his cup of tea.

  • Jay

    Black men and black women don’t have a responsibility to call anyone out. If you are a black woman and are hurt by this comment, kill yourself. Black woemn for to many years been living in the white mans shadow and are dreaming up this idiocy. Who cares if the rest of the world does not think you are pretty, are you looking for validation from another race or another race of man to make you feel good. The same is said about black men, there is no black man from Compton to NYC who would give two flying sh2ts that white women and other women dont think they are attractive. Thats the real problem, black men aint trying to be validated by no one including other races. You goofy black women better learn to get some black self worth, black self identity and some black self esteem. Or continue to be laughed at by the world. As long as your men think you are beautiful thats all that matters and if that is not enough then go cry in your soup.

  • A Mess wants to know, where is her comment?

    @ the black men who agree with this article,
    go ahead and swirl. Black women should not procreate with weak minded men like you.

    By 2050, it is said, that people of color will be the majority. Studies like this are designed to make this not happen. Think people.

I don’t know what some of you ppl see, but I see so many women of color doing their thing. Maybe it’s both. You can still reproduce and have the smarts to raise and guide a new generation that won’t be as susceptible to some the traps of previous generations. They have already demonized the black man. Bcuz they know how strong willed and minded we are. So now they must see you ladies as a threat. So sistas, be strong and be carefull.

    Does that article address the disparity in the state sponsored education system (i.e. “public schools”)? Does it even mention how Black community public schools are labeled as “Abbott School Districts” (or do you even recognize the significance in that?) Does it even go into the difference in curriculum when comparing suburban schools and schools in the inner city? Does it factor in socioeconomic factors? I’m POSTITIVE it doesn’t mention that Blacks that attend private African centered schools out shine public school students…Black AND white (amazing what we can do when our self respect is returned to our psyche).

    I find it interesting that for black women to be so undesirable, and for our features to be so unnattractive, why are so many races of women flocking to black men to have babies with our undesireable features? our bodies are physically undesirable but butt injections are now the most popular surgery next to breast implants… why do you want to be apart of our families so bad? I mean your baby with that black man is still gonna have black aunties and a black grandmother with my ugly african features.. it would seem to me that if we were so ugly “others” wouldnt want to have anything to do with anything that looks like us, but somehow that is not the case… so we must be doing something right because they sure do want to have us as sister in laws

    Not undertstanding a poll such as this it seems cosmo just had an article on 2011 beauty which included women with full lips, behinds, and dark hair all the things that were considered ugly so long ago and then this article goes as far as saying black men are attractive black women are the other half of a black women. Come on how do we allow articles so racist as this one. It seems there trying to make sure that we understand they are not giving black women any credit for any ounce of beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder not the color of a person it doesn’t mater if you are a white man, asian or what ever fine is fine. These hate articles are just what they are hate

Have you forgotten that mean like Du Bois, Thurgood Marshall, Frederick Douglass, MLK, Richard Wright, James Baldwin (I can keep going) were also black?

    We all know that what was posted on that site is bull-ish & that we black women are the most curvy, appealing, talented, strong, and intelligent women around. That being said: while I know who and what I am as a woman, let alone a black woman, I do understand why people say that we are less attractive than other women. Our men–especially the high profile ones, seem to be all-but obsessed with women who are white, hispanic, brazilian–any color other than black! Its offensive and widespread and it sends messages that something must be drastically wrong with us if our own men dont want us. Many of us are not just overweight, but sloppy in our appearance, talk loudly and use offensive language ALL the time. Of course I know that we’re not the only ones who do this: but remember we are not seen as individuals. We are lumped together and everything negative is equated with us: why we add to those stereotypes I’ll ever know. But I need people to remember that in spite of it all, we KNOW we are fabulous! Add to the equation that all of these superbly attractive, accomplished black men would not be here if their BLACK mothers hadnt given birth to them. Duh!

    2. IQ tests are worthless because they tend to measure what someone knows which calls into question the quality of education one is subjected to. A true measure of intelligence would be based on deductive reasoning…the ability to use and apply what you DO know. Many psychologists don’t even put any stock into IQ scores and view them as bias.

    3. The fact that this article printed in the Wall Street Journal (owned by Rupert Murdoch…the same Murdoch that owns Fox News) kills its credibility anyway. Murdoch’s main agenda is to demonize Blacks in America…even YOU can’t deny that.

  • CUT the BULLSH!T

    The question is: why do you give SO MUCH OF A F*CK about black people? And who is this “we” you keep talking about? The many voices in your delusional head? And has it occurred to you that your opinion doesn’t matter? Just go ahead and admit it. Black people are your obsession and if you hated us THAT much, you wouldn’t waste so much time talking about us.

    End of story!

    @Star

    Thank you, someone finally peeped game. Ever since Barack became president and the fact he is married to a beautiful, intelligent black woman, the media and others have been trying their best to discredit and sabotage black women. Boy I tell you we live in a world were people will do their best to destroy and conquer. I am glad I believe and trust in God. I am glad I know my worth and will not let anyone tell me any different. What is so amazing about black women is that we are not uniformed meaning we all do not look alike we come in different shapes, sizes, and colors. People hate things that are not like them and it is obvious black women are nothing like other races. We stand out and people are threatened by it.

    That aligns with one of my favorite adages – “The strong rule the weak, the wise rule the strong.”

    You are 100% right…as long as we let ourselves be victims of white supremacy by collectively lacking in self knowledge we will continue to be perceived as “less than” (to ourselves…I can care less as to what “they” think). We have to get out of the mindset that we are hopeless to “The Powers That Be” by realizing they are actually “The Powers That We Allow”….we possess more power than we know.

    Second of all the sisters have to and must do a better job as to how they present themselves to the world. The likes of Nene Leaks and and basketball wives and hip-hop wives has to stop. This is what we as a people show the world.

    Delusions and illusion is all that really exist in this world wrapped with some very ignorant white who believe that they are above all but God loves everyone and if you think differently then maybe you have been shunned from his love. You are not God and do not have the power to destroy or create no one but yourself love. Only the weak hear you and the strong is like a city that can not be breeched. The fact that you think that the love for myself only exist and can be destroyed solely based off of the words of others lets me see your delusions and your lack of love for other people and yourself. Great is he that is within me the he who loves in and for the world. My strength always comes form something greater then you.

  • Sieta

    Wow… keyboard warrior right there..

  • Soul Touch

    I FULLY agree. They speak of it here (Toronto) on Community radio due to the fact that the Black community here comes from all over (Africa, Caribbean).

    Africans and Displaced Africans of the Caribbean have been building bridges in our communities and have taken upon the mission of recognizing our kinship. In fact, we are the first to start african/black focused school in Toronto. Though the month of February it is quite alright for our children to learn all about the exploits of White people. It is very wrong when we want our children to learn about what our ancestors have contributed (besides peanut butter). Our civilizations are well kept secrets.

    In this school the concepts in the history, science, mathematics and social studies lessons reflect African consciousnes.s and contributions. This allows the children to recognize their worth…The curriculum that is taught in the public school system glorifies European culture, but it is done in a manner that says ‘this is mainstream.’ It has become so “normal” that we do not question why any culture that is not White is spoken about as the “other”. Most illustrations in textbooks are of White-skinned people. The contributions of Africans in the fields of mathematics, science, etc. are not acknowledged. The idea is not to separate us from them, but to uplift ourselves so that we can step into this world on even ground.

    The sad thing about America is that they teach you what they want you to know…if it’s not conducive to their agenda, you better be prepared to do some self-learning.

  • Illuminate Truth “GroupThink Brings Death to Free Thought”

    @ Youknowwhatitis

    D@mn good point. Shows you how credible this “study” is. Trust me, although it may not seem like it, the MAJORITY of Black men love and appreciate their Sistas…I’m living, walking, breathing proof. Unfortunately it is the self-hating, becky chasing variety that get all the “air time”. How many times do we have to look at Lamar Odom’s wife or Kobe’s wife during a basketball game when the fact is the majority of Black professional athletes are married to Black women. Funny how the Black wives get no play or acknowledgement…unless they are helping to further push negative stereotypes such as that show “Basketball Wives”. Does anybody talk about Jordan’s (now ex) wife who was an accomplished attorney and orchestrated his business moves that led to him owning his own image? More proof of what a good Black woman can do for a Brotha….but let her had been white…we would ALL know about her.

    @Ill Truth

    Co-fing sign!!

    It amazes me how these people don’t know much of what you just typed. They’ll continue to read the books and history the white man wants to cram into their brains, but they don’t want to expand their thinking.

    You can talk about Ormus and Monoatomic gold, which heightens the pineal gland and strengthens our spiritual and mental abilities (I’m sure you’re already hip to it and know all about Ormus). I guarantee a lot of them won’t even go look it up. We’ve always had the third eye/pineal gland, but we as a people don’t exercise it. Manna in the Bible was the gold that came from the gold calf that Moses made the Israelites eat for over 40 years and it didn’t hurt them at all. Mono atomic gold is the same gold that the manna came from… It’s amazing how things get twisted, and we as people think we can’t consume the white gold… You hit in on the hide. There’s another side to the Bible that a lot act like they don’t want to research.

    Why do we keep believing the lies fed to us, and we won’t even research?

    Have you ever heard of this book called Melanin Chemical Key to Blackness. I saw the dude Film mention it on here a while back and it became a part of my library. Have you heard of this book? If not, it’s a good read. It talks all about the pineal gland and our superiority.

    I can tell by a lot of your posts that you’re a very knowledgeable brother. I just told Caramel Cat yesterday a lot of the better conversations, like the ones that used to be on here, don’t happen that often anymore.

    I know a little bit about the X,Y chromosome, but not a lot. I’ll look more into that. Can you share any material or websites that you’ve read on the subject? Thanks burh.

    they don’t QUESTION anything and therefore don’t research it.
    ______

    Oh I know many of us don’t question anything. I hold self-love and knowledge of self workshops, and I just can’t see how many of us will repeat a pattern without giving it any thought. Most people give a response that they’re believing what they’re taught or what’s instilled in them. I meant that rhetorically… I can’t wrap my mind around why we won’t question things.

    That experiment sums up our mindsets VERY well. That could apply to the church, the democratic or repub parties, wanting to learn black history and reaching for HIStory books that indoctrinate us, supporting the NAACP and other black organizations that are REALLY white owned or adapted from another culture, or joining and paying membership fees to the same organizations. I could continue to list a host of other foolishness we do, because we think we’re continuing a legacy or it’s OUR tradition or creation.

    Yup I’ve noticed how knowledgeable Tony Redd is too, and I’ve researched things he’s posted as well and used it… Good to see like minds on here.

    Yup I follow you. That reminds me of the saying “when the student is ready, the teacher will appear.”… When we seek knowledge, we get answers, and then that answer turns into another question.,, But the key for many of us is we don’t apply the knowledge we have. Knowledge is powerful, but the application of knowledge is even more powerful.

    Education has always been the key. Why don’t blacks in the diaspora have programs that will allow them to visit Africa like Israel does for it’s “children”? It will pay for them to visit and go to school. A lot of my Jewish friends took that opportunity happily.

    Beauty is subjective. There is no one ideal of what beauty is and no scientific study can take its measure. This is a “study” done by a Japanese man that has been on the chopping block for racially biased “studies” before. There is no educational value in a study like this. The point of it is to simply put down an entire group of people for someone’s own personal amusement. That’s it. The comments in this thread make me sad because I know most of them have been written by young people. If this is the attitude black men take in response to overtly racist acts like this against black women-the black family will soon be extinct.

    @ Bianca,you really need to get your head checked for the simple fact that all other races try to be like Black people.How do you explain cosmetic surgery for bigger behinds,tanning salons for darker skin,Botox for fuller lips? All examples of who these other races are “dying”to look like.We are the only race that has a piece of our bloodline in all races which I consider a beautiful thing.So when you talk about a race being ugly maybe you should check your own lineage,because I’m pretty sure matter of fact I’m positive you have some African descent in your blood as well.

    this is an obvious ploy to play black women and men against eachother divide and conquer…as usual…but some black men will fall for this especially since some are secretly looking for some postive recognition from other races since for so long they have been told they are stupid barbaric animals..how can black woman be the least attractive but black men the most when they come from black women?? just dumb dumb dumb…pay no attention to this nonsense..they been doing so called studies on blacks forever that prove we are less than human and everyone else especially whites are more superior…i cant even be mad at this bs anymore it kinda comical

    This pseudo-scientific debacle will hopefully soon cost Ka-n-azawa his position at LSE. I came across this London Evening Standard article today on another blog:

    thisislondon.co.uk/standard/article-23951328-black-women-less-attractive-storm-at-lse.do

    A London university is under pres-sure to sack an academic who claimed black women are les-s attractive than those of other races.

    Satoshi Kanazawa, an evolutionary psychologist at the London School of Economics and a Reader in its department of management, conducted a study where participants were asked to rate the attractivenes-s of men and women of various races.

    The results, which found African women to be perceived as the least desirable, were published in an article called Why Are Black Women Les-s Physically Attractive Than Other Women? on the US website Psychology Today.

    London s-tudents condemned the academic today and called for him to be fired. University of London Union senate members pa-s-sed an emergency motion this afternoon demanding his dismis-sal.

    An LSE spokesman said: “This academic’s views are his own and do not represent the LSE.”

    I hadn’t heard of Ka-n-a-zawa prior to this week, but, apparently, he has created quite a controversial name for himself from his often racially tinged “research.” Below is a link to a Guardian article to his 2006 paper that theorized that populations of African countries are les-s intelligent than people in other nations:

    guardian.co.uk/uk/2006/nov/05/highereducation.research

    “The London School of Economics is embroiled in a row over academic freedom after one of its lecturers published a paper alleging that African states were poor and suffered chronic ill-health because their populations were less intelligent than people in richer countries.
    Satoshi Kanazawa, an evolutionary psychologist, is now accused of reviving the politics of eugenics by publishing the research which concludes that low IQ levels, rather than poverty and disease, are the reason why
    life expectancy is low and infant mortality high. His paper, published in the British Journal of Health Psychology, compares IQ scores with indicators of ill health in 126 countries and claims that nations at the top of the ill health league also have the lowest intelligence ratings.”

    Other field experts have publis-hed their own retorts to this flawed theory, including this rebuttal from Dr. Mikhail Lyubansky, a faculty member at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign posted on Psychology Today this week. Link and e-x-cerpt below:

    psychologytoday.com/blog/between-the-lines/201105/beauty-may-be-in-eye-beholder-eyes-see-what-culture-socializes

    “The point is that there are also group differences, not in attractivenes-s (as Ka-n-a-zawa claims), but in cultural mes-sages about what is and is not attractive. S-tandards of beauty, like most other beliefs, are socialized and change not only from place to place but also over time. In both the United States and England, (where Kanazawa lives and works), standards of beauty are es-sentially “White” s-tandards, because whites comprise the majority of the population and have disproportional control over both media and fashion. And while it is not just White respondents who are socialized this way (internalized racism has been well documented), it is certainly the case that White Americans and Europeans (who are les-s likely to have received more positive mes-sages about Black beauty) would show the strongest anti-Black bias.”

    This is a distraction from another major issue happening. The Fourth Amendmant being disregarded, making it legal for police to enter your home if it is beleived that illegal activity is happening. A warrant is not needed, they can enter your home whenever they want. This is true, look it up, spread the word.

    @MR.MAKE.YA.FEELGOOD.(always read the fine print)

    “They have already demonized the black man. Bcuz they know how strong willed and minded we are. So now they must see you ladies as a threat. So sistas, be strong and be carefull.”

    Thank you for your very insightful post (along with many others on here — great posts, Ill). When I first saw the headline of this piece, I think I had the same immediate reaction as a number of other sistas — “Open season has been declared on us.” But, thinking more objectively, I have to wonder, if this amount of energy has to be expended in an effort to prove how inferior we are, than these efforts in themselves indicates is that our alleged inferiority is a farce, and it is that truth that invokes fear and disdain among our detractors. There have been efforts over generations to obliterate our collective sense of self-esteem. We have had stereotypical archetypes thrust upon us, told that our hair, skin, lips, and other features are abnormal, and, thus, unattractive, mocked and scorned, and, yet, as even Kanazawa noted, we have the audacity to continue to exude confidence, and we have survived and will continue to strive to overcome adversities. If we were insignificant, there would be no need to pay us any attention, to study us, to create websites and other media to degrade and malign us.

    Hey, girl! Thanks for the link. I’ll take a look. Yes, I’ve heard a bit about the controversial mes-sages in some Disney cartoons. I know the character of Uncle Remus, for example, was widely seen as offensive.

  • The Commenter Formerly Known as White Devil

    I don’t think in science or academia that there should be questions that are unaskable because they may offend someone. That is not the cae here. His research just seems so flawed it is difficult to believe an academic at a respected institution would publish it. Especially because any person not living under a rock would have to realize how much scrutiny such controversial results would bring.

  • minime

    @WD

    “His research just seems so flawed it is difficult to believe an academic at a respected institution would publish it. Especially because any person not living under a rock would have to realize how much scrutiny such controversial results would bring.”

    Yes, from what I’m reading from other members of academia who are scrutinizing these findings, the soundess of Ka-n-a-zawa’s methodology has provoked a number of questions and doubts from individuals with undisputable expertise in the scientific field. When I read the text of the original article, I looked for tangible sources of the data that Kanazawa was citing to no avail — and this appears to be his pattern.

  • Sydney™

    BTW, here’s another opposition piece written by another expert (who has criticized this same researcher in the p-a-s-t) from the University of Minnesota, Morris. He even delves into the collective original link of various populations to Africa:

  • Ann

    This is garbage and unworthy of a response.

  • Sydney™

    This is why it is so important that we all invest time and energy in becoming well-acquainted with our history and developing a strong and immutable sense of self. This latest piece is nothing new. There have been a number of concerted efforts to attempt to prove our inferiority, that we are intellectually hampered, et cetera. Do you remember the name James Watson? He is a geneticist who, five or so years ago, theorized that blacks are inherently less intelligent than whites.

  • SoGee

    @Bianca any smart person knows Statistics aren’t accurate. Try again moron. And this Japanese guy is very ignorant, did you forgot that Asian Men are considered the most unattractive in the world? For sure America.The same women he is praising don’t want him proof, There are 4 or 8% of Asians in America and Asian Women and White Men couples are the highest interracial and that is sad. Even Asian Women don’t want you. Now I won’t lie and say I don’t find Asian Men attractive I do I had a huge crush on a filipino boy, and I like So Ji Sub, Rick Yune and Eddie Shin from Aziatix let me stop but yeah I do like Asian guys some, but this guy shouldn’t talk at all. All the women he’s praising won’t even give him a second look. People need to stop putting all of us in the same wagon it’s not fair. White Women are seen as individuals but Black Women aren’t, why? Why when you see 4 unattractive Black Women you say we all are unattractive? Why when you see 10 unattractive white women you don’t think nothing of it. Whites really have brainwashed us all, Black Men dating out for example, well it’s not even a problem their dating out it’s just that the ones who date out love to bash Black Women, which is absolutely ridiculous because everything they say are based on stereotypes and generalizations.

  • LadyJustice

    This lame attempt at an objective study is the epitome of an intellectual lightweight trying to gain credibility without understanding some of the basics. “Objectively” speaking, there is no scientific way to measure something as subjective as beauty in an objective manner. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, in other words its a pretty subjective issue. I am a black women ranking highly on net intelligence and beauty. The conductor of the study is pure comedy and his research will serve as my entertainment for the evening.

    This why don’t you go and add to there world instead of trying to destroy a world that you seem to be very much ashamed of. You sound like the type that would bleach your skin; one of the uncle ruckus types of nicca can’t except that he is of a black decent as well. Loving yourself does so much more for you then hating yourself and others. You can not like a person within your race but to down the whole race entirely really seems like a sickness. I am not going to say that I hate black men just because I have the unfortunate opportunity to run into a nicca like you I am smart enough to understand that I don’t have to invite you into my space and then guess what you still don’t really exist in my mind and world problem solved.It just that easy and guess what I didn’t have to hurt anyone to do it.

    Yes, white men as well, and to go a little further with it,… it’s other race’s women too, they approach me as well (No, I am not into women) So while people get out here and sprew all of the hate that they do, people are going to be with who they want to be with at the end of the day, it’s just plain attraction, either you have it on a universal level or you don’t,….but at the same time you have be well rounded too,……you cannot have only one way of thinking and think that you can attract people on any and every level.
