Goo ranking: "Female Postures That Makes Them Appealing in the Workplace"

I found an interesting ranking at Goo (one of the major JP portal site), titled "Female Postures That Makes Them Appealing in the Workplace".

It is the result of the votes by the Japanese users, and it's apparent that "appealing" in this context is from male's point of view. And what got the top spot is "Re-crossing one's legs" -- it got nearly twice as much as the one in the second spot.

Then, the No.2 to10 in the ranking are as follows:

2. Tying up the hair in back before starting the work

3. Picking up the dropped documents

4. Bearing to cry due to the mistake she made

5. Reaching for the object put on the higher place (like shelf)

6. Trotting with carrying the files in front of chest

7. Resetting the hairstyle

8. Bending knees for a little bit when serving drinks onto low tables

9. Watching the display with cupping one's chin in one's hand

10. Being drowsy by fatigue after over-night work

All these behaviors are quite typical actions we usually see in manga or TV drama...
