"The Lady in Red" is famous in movies, books and music, but men in red turn out to be just as alluring, according to a new study that found men who wear red are more attractive and sexually desirable to women.

“红衣女郎在电影、小说和音乐中都非常有名，但最新研究显示，男人穿红色也会显得更有魅力，对女性的吸引力更大。

According to lead author Andrew Elliot, a professor of psychology at the University of Rochester, “We found that women view men in red as higher in status, more likely to make money and more likely to climb the social ladder. And it’s this high-status judgment that leads to the attraction."

研究报告的主要作者是罗切斯特大学心理学教授安德鲁-艾略特。他表示，“我们发现，女性认为穿红色衣服的男性拥有更高的地位、更多的金钱，属于社会上层人士。正是这种高社会地位的印象使得红衣男人对女性更有吸引力。

Red appears to signal rank in virtually all cultures. The researchers point out that China, Japan and sub-Saharan Africa populations have all tied red to prosperity and elevated status. In ancient Rome, the most powerful citizens were called "the ones who wear red." Today, we roll out the red carpet for special guests.

事实上，在不同的文化中，红色都象征着地位。研究者指出，在中国、日本和撒哈拉以南的非洲地区，红色都与财富、地位有关。在古罗马，有权势的公民被称为“穿红衣服的人。现在，我们也会为贵宾铺设红地毯。
