The photos were sent in by volunteers, other photos were of the brothers and partners of public figures and celebrities.

If the chance that a participant would pick the woman's partner was one in four, the raw data showed people were picking the partner more than that. Once the researchers had taken all the variables into account, the rate was around 27 percent.
"Our findings were not a rule or true of every woman but we do find that, at levels greater than chance, partners did show some subtle resemblance to the women's brothers," lead researcher Tamsin Saxton told, as quoted by the Independent. (ANI)
