ATLANTA — Good-looking people get all the breaks, including the ultimate one. Now there's evidence they live longer too. Researchers have found that--get this--people with the most attractive faces live longer than those whose mugs don't raise pulses very much, according to a study published recently in the scientific journal Evolution and Human Behavior. One of the researchers, Joshua Henderson of the University of Waterloo in Canada, said their findings go along with the sexual selection theory of evolution, which holds that, when given a choice, people pick mates with biological cues of good genes. Henderson and professor Jerry Anglin took 50 yearbook photos from the 1920s of 17-year-olds and had 20 modern-day students "rate" them for good looks and health. Then the researchers looked at the death records of those same folks. Men who had been rated as attractive lived an average of 76 years. But those on the lowest rung averaged only 69. The most attractive women lived to an average age of 76, three more than those who weren't rated as all that hot. The only logical conclusion? "Facial attractiveness in adolescence is predictive of future longevity." Well, there's another "conceivable" reason "along the lines of social psychology," Henderson said. "It is widely known that attractive people have better jobs, make more money, have more sexual partners, etc. "Given that they generally have a higher socioeconomic status, it is possible that they have better access to health care and thus, are more likely to live longer," he said. "It is also possible that attractive people tend to try to keep fit more than others, but this is conjecture." The scientists, he added, were "startled" by their findings. "Some people have found the research upsetting. I guess it's just the idea that there are so many benefits to being attractive, which they find kind of unfair."
