Mmm, sexy. Pass me my spanner!

Is it just my warped sense of humour, or is this hilarious?

Researchers used brain scans to show that when straight men looked at pictures of women in bikinis, areas of the brain that normally light up in anticipation of using tools, like spanners and screwdrivers, were activated.

Maybe B&Q should start advertising on adult websites.

    I have to say, the rest of the research is bloody stupid.

    When they took a memory test afterwards, the men best remembered images of bikini-clad women whose heads had been digitally removed.

    And they assume this can only be something to do with depersonification and objectification and nothing whatsoever to do with “Holy fuck! A headless woman!”
