Is there a quick, reliable hack for spotting a sexually dangerous man?

Research uncovers how a man’s dangerous sexual attitude will silently reveal itself…
A new study indicates that a silent, subtle, but recognizably distinct social behavior might indicate that a man might be sexually dangerous.
Breaking research from last year indicates that men who exhibit a leisurely, lingering gaze upon women’s bodies are more likely to have harmful attitudes towards sexual assault.
It’s important to establish that we’ve studied the sh*t out of covetous eye contact.
We already know that while men usually gaze more at women’s bodies than women do at men’s bodies, however an excessive, prolonged, lingering gazing upon the body has been identified as a behavioral red flag.
In my opinion, modern women need an inventory of red flags to assess a situation.
The sexual politics on this research is explosive to say the least. I expect a howl of outrage from the Red Pill contingent. But a covetous, lingering gaze is a talking point. of biblical proportion.
Lead author of the study is Australian researcher Dr Ross Hollett, had this to say:
“Gazing at someone’s body instead of their face is one form of sexual objectification, or valuing people for their bodies over their minds or personality.
This sexually objectifying gaze behavior can lead to more harmful attitudes and behaviors.”
How the study was conducted
For the study, Dr. Hollett’s team interviewed over 1,000 heterosexual men and women. They were asked about their sexual attitudes and how they looked at other people’s bodies.
This is the cool part. Eye tracking technology was also used on 167 people to see what they actually do, not just what they say they do.
What did thy find?
A huge detectable difference appeared between the male and female study subjects explained Dr Hollett:
“Using eye tracking, we found male participants showed strong preferences for gazing at the bodies of partially and fully dressed women instead of their faces.
By contrast, women did not show body gaze preferences for any of the male or female imagery.
In fact, they largely showed balanced gaze profiles (similar gaze towards both the head and body), with the exception of a preference to gaze at the heads of fully clothed men.
Men were also more likely to self-report gazing at women’s bodies more than women self-reported gazing at men’s bodies.”
Here’s the chilling part…when the researchers correlated the lingering gaze data with sexual attitudes, they claim to have found a clear link, said Dr Hollett:
“Specifically, men who tended to gaze at women’s bodies were more likely to assume that women invite or tolerate rough sexual conduct.
That is, they were more likely to agree with statements like ‘women find forced sex a turn on’ and ‘women secretly desire to be raped’.”
A prolonged, lingering gaze upon the body is a social red flag
Here is the most important finding. Looking at the body excessively with a lingering gaze may be a social red flag, said Dr Hollett:
“When we observe someone engaging in excessive body gaze, we can assume they are more likely to agree with certain sexual assault beliefs which might put them at higher risk of being a perpetrator.
This study has shown that similar patterns of behaviour emerge when measuring gaze using self-report and eye tracking technology which suggests heterosexuals are largely aware of their gaze habits and possibly use them to communicate sexual interest and intentions to the opposite sex.”
