Brain scans show a man's reaction to seeing beautiful women is similar to an addict's when he gets his fix.
The study seems to be proof feminine beauty affects the male brain at its most basic level.
Pictures of attractive women activated the same reward circuits in the brains of heterosexual (straight) men as food and cocaine.
The study may help prove we are born knowing what is beautiful and what is not.
Dan Ariely, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a co-author of the study, said: "This is hard-core circuitry. Beauty is working similar to a drug."
In a second, related study, men were shown random pictures of women for several seconds, but could extend or cut the viewing time by pressing keys on a keypad.
Attractive women were viewed an average of 8.7 seconds while others were viewed for 5.2 seconds.
The men worked frantically to keep the beautiful women on the screen, each pressing the keyboard an average of more than 6,700 times in 40 minutes. (WOW) A researcher said: ''These guys look like rodents bar-pressing for cocaine."
Researchers at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital have published their work in the journal "Neuron".
