Interesting fact:

It goes without saying that appearance plays an important role in one’s decision-making process. This is very important in the case of voting during elections. Maturity and physical attractiveness of politicians are known to be important, sub-conscious elements that influence one’s choice. There is also a strong association between “heaviness” and “seriousness.” A person is seen as more serious if arriving to a meeting with bulky folders and several layers of clothing.
