++ "It's TorF Trivia (WorM)" ++
Question #1: Research shows women see colors better than men  -- True or False?

        A. True, or
        B. False.
        B. False.
"Stereotypes about the superior color sense of women may well be rooted in genetics. Brian Verrelli, a researcher at the Biodesign Institute at ASU, is co-collaborator on a study suggesting that natural genetic selection has provided women with a frequent ability to better discriminate between colors than men."

Question #2: Boys have more taste buds than girls  -- True or False?
        A. True, or
        B. False.


"Women have more fungiform papillae and more taste buds than men and, according to most studies, are able to detect lower concentrations of PROP and are more likely to be supertasters."

Question #3: In the U.S. and Canada, women smile significantly more than men do -- True or False?
        A. True, or
        B. False.
Sex Differences in Smiling
Numerous studies have established that women smile more often than men (Burgoon, Buller, & Woodall, 1989; Hall, 1984; Hall & Halberstadt, 1986; Haviland, 1977).
A recent meta-analysis of over 160 studies also supported this finding (LaFrance, Hecht, & Levy Paluck, 2003).
The size of the sex difference was found to be contingent on several factors including the social situation, participant role, and whether or not the person was being observed.
Social expectations seem to dictate that women smile more than men (LaFrance & Hecht, 1999).
