Men want hot women, study confirms

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Science is confirming what most women know: When given the choice for a mate, men go for good looks.

In the dating game, men know what they want.

And guys won't be surprised to learn that women are much choosier about partners than they are.

"Just because people say they're looking for a particular set of characteristics in a mate, someone like themselves, doesn't mean that is what they'll end up choosing," Peter M. Todd, of the cognitive science program at Indiana University, Bloomington, said in a telephone interview.

Researchers led by Todd report in Tuesday's edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that their study found humans were similar to most other mammals, "following Darwin's principle of choosy females and competitive males, even if humans say something different."

Their study involved 26 men and 20 women in Munich, Germany.

Participants ranged in age from 26 to their early 40s and took part in "speed dating," short meetings of three to seven minutes in which people chat, then move on to meet another dater. Afterward, participants check off the people they'd like to meet again, and dates can be arranged between pairs who select one another.

Speed dating let researchers look at a lot of mate choices in a short time, Todd said.

In the study, participants were asked before the session to fill out a questionnaire about what they were looking for in a mate, listing such categories as wealth and status, family commitment, physical appearance, healthiness and attractiveness.

After the session, the researchers compared what the participants said they were looking for with the people they actually chose to ask for another date.

Men's choices did not reflect their stated preferences, the researchers concluded. Instead, men appeared to base their decisions mostly on the women's physical attractiveness.

The men also appeared to be much less choosy. Men tended to select nearly every woman above a certain minimum attractiveness threshold, Todd said.

Women's actual choices, like men's, did not reflect their stated preferences, but they made more discriminating choices, the researchers found.

The scientists said women were aware of the importance of their own attractiveness to men, and adjusted their expectations to select the more desirable guys.

"Women made offers to men who had overall qualities that were on a par with the women's self-rated attractiveness. They didn't greatly overshoot their attractiveness," Todd said, "because part of the goal for women is to choose men who would stay with them"

But, he added, "they didn't go lower. They knew what they could get and aimed for that level."

So, it turns out, the women's attractiveness influenced the choices of the men and the women.

Does he expect your best?

Do you get worried when you wake up with hair a mess and dragon breath that your partner will see? Would it matter then?

Sorry if I'm being to forward, I'm just curious...
I'm guessing if I went 5 years without trying to look my best for him at least once or twice a week, it would effect our relationship. Because what am I telling him if I never try? Would he love me anyways? of course, cuz I'm damn fine regardless!!! (Kidding). But I bet it would take it's toll...just like if he never shaved, etc. I'd begin to wonder why he never wanted to look good for me.
My hair being a mess inthe morning or my breath isn't really what I'm referring to, because that happens. I just mean...getting up and making an effort. If I got up, put on sweats and a t-shirt every day... esp to go out or something.... I'd be giving a message I don't really want to give. But if we go do something and I put on a cleavage shirt and do my hair, and look awesome, I'm giving a message that I'm still interested in impressing him.

you know, she's not fat. she's not a size 3 either though. The thing about her is that she jsut doesn't try. I love her and think she's pretty regardless...but you know, I know her soul. On the surface, she's just not one of those girls that looks good naturally, she just needs a little mascara and it bumps her up like 10 notches.

yeah...we're pretty strange. At least some of us are. But doesn't that make sense...or maybe that's something I'm putting in there. Maybe I'm obsessing about nothing?
Personally, I think to feel sexually empowered, a woman needs to take care of herself and feel good about what she looks like. I think many women don't have sex with their husbands because they constantly feel bad about what they look like. But to me, regardless of weight or other factors, if a woman decides to put on something pretty, wear pretty make up and do her hair, she instantly feels better about who she is and is more apt to feel sexually amorous

no....but this should bump her up like 20 notches... she consciously made a decision when she was 18 to maintain her virginity and she has stuck by it.... that's crazy, huh?

It's all about attitude...being smoking hot is a state of mind, not accessories, IMO.
