« According to science, I'm one hot tamale »
A study done on attractiveness and first names has found that male names with front vowels (they use Matt as an example) are sexier than those with back vowels (Paul, Sean, George, Steve).
Front vowels are made in the front of your mouth, and back vowels are made in the back.
The opposite is true for women: back vowels (Rachel, Kate) are sexier than front (Jennifer, Nadia).
Too bad I can't truly figure out which ones are front and which ones are back, but I, Matt, am not one to argue with scientific facts.
But for now, I will have to purchase a pointy stick (pictured, right) to fend off the ladies, thanks to these findings. Thanks a lot, science
