There's something about red. Studies suggest it makes women more attractive to men, and new research indicates red lipstick on waitresses is no exception。 红色的秘密你知多少。有研究显示，对于男人而言，红色让女人看起来更具吸引力。而最新研究表明，烈焰红唇的女招待也不例外。 A study in France found that red lipstick boosted female waitresses' tips from male customers, though not from female customers。 法国的一项研究发现，涂抹红色唇膏的女招待会从男顾客手上获得更多的小费，但对女顾客而言无效。 Researchers had seven waitresses wear red, pink, brown or no lipstick while serving 447 customers in three restaurants in the town of Vannes. In France, tipping is unusual because a 12 percent service charge is included in the price of the menu item。 研究者让7名女服务员涂抹红色、粉色、棕色等不同颜色的口红或者不涂口红，并让她们在小城瓦纳的三家不同的餐馆里招待447名顾客。在法国，顾客通常不会给服务员小费，因为在账单中已经包含了12%的服务费了。 The researchers, Nicolas Guéguen and Céline Jacob of the Université de Bretagne-Sud, found that male patrons gave tips more frequently to waitresses wearing red lipstick than to other waitresses, and, when they tipped, they gave more. This effect was found only for the red lipstick, not the other colors。 南布列塔尼大学的两名研究者Nicolas Guéguen和Céline Jacob发现，比起其他的女招待，男顾客更愿意给烈焰红唇的女服务员小费，而且给得更多。这个结果只在涂抹红色唇膏的女招待身上发生，使用其他颜色唇膏的女招待并没有产生这一效果。 |
