Good luck, ladies: Nearly HALF of men admit their ideal woman would have a BELOW-average weight - and the older they get, the younger they want their partners to be

Quote:

A new study of what men and women are looking for in a partner doesn't do a whole lot to dispel stereotypes.

Superdrug Online Doctor asked over 1,100 people in the US and Europe about their ideal hypothetical romantic partner and found that generally, men are looking for ladies who are thinner than average — and considerably younger.

Meanwhile, women tend to want men who are taller than average, with over half wishing for a guy who is six feet or taller.



When asked to describe their ideal partner by weight, almost half (47 per cent) of men said they prefer a woman who is of below-average weight, compared to 42 per cent who chose average weight.

Women, on the other hand, prefer a man who's average on the scale (67 per cent), and are even slightly more forgiving of a partner who is above-average (15 per cent, compared to 11 per cent of men).

But while men may have high expectations for a woman's slenderness, women have high expectations for a partner's height.

Seventy-seven per cent of women said their ideal partner is above-average height (versus 21 per cent who said average). Men prefer their women right in the middle, height-wise, with 40 per cent saying 'average' is their ideal.

So how many inches are best? Exactly half of women said their ideal partner is six feet tall or taller (though many others were also quite happy with a man who is 5'10").

For men, the ideal partner is 5'4", though over a third said a woman who is 5'8" would make them most happy.

Women also responded that they are looking for men who are more muscular than average — though both sexes prefer a partner with above-average athleticism.

They survey also examined attitudes toward facial hair in men — with the most, 30 per cent, preferring a guy who is clean shaven — but it explored more than just physical attributes.

When it comes to age, women tend to want a man who is just a tiny bit older, no matter her age. But men nearly always prefer a younger woman — and the older they get, the younger they expect their women to be.

For example, 23-year-old women said they'd like a man 3.4 years older than they are, 35-year-old women said 2.2 years, and 44-year-old women said 2.3 years older.

But starting at age 23, men are looking for younger women, with the difference in age mostly growing as they age.

Men who are 39 want a woman 7.6 years younger, and 47-year-old men want a woman 9.6 years younger.

While all of these facts and numbers can seem incredibly disheartening, though, it's worth noting that the more shallow attributes like weight, height, and age are not what most people find to be the most important. [Walterblack: I think there's some hamstering here ]

When asked to describe their ideal man, women used the words 'funny' or 'humorous' the most, followed by 'smart' or 'intelligent'. Other top words included 'tall', 'kind' or 'nice', 'handsome', 'honest', and 'caring'.

For men, the top words for an ideal woman were also 'funny' or 'humorous', followed by 'smart' or 'intelligent'. Next were 'kind' or 'nice', 'cute', 'beautiful', and 'blonde'.

50% of girls say they prefer men with higher muscle mass. 50% of girls are pretending they don't prefer men with higher muscle mass.

No.

At 23, men are graduating from the bottom of the sexual marketplace, which is void of women their age who are with Chad and older men, and are noticing that younger women who are not jail bait looking up to them.

Same with height. The reason why men appear to like 5’4” tall women is because most men have the relative height hypergamic credit to attract women of average height in the first place.

Right after taking this survey 66% of the women went back to their below average, in height and muscle mass, partners who made them laugh/treated them like shit.

I'm still waiting for the real survey that tracks the disparity between words and behaviors of women. Any man that reads these female "preferences" and believes them is a sucker.

This is pretty much the same thing I'm thinking. Asking women survey questions is completely pointless.

They could never explain the discrepancy in self reported sexual partners between men and women until they hooked women up to a lie detector and then did the survey. All of a sudden women report almost identical to men the number of sexual partners.

The female capacity for rationalization consistently amazes me.

That's the inner soy speaking.

Good example of effective content marketing, but otherwise fairly uninteresting.

OKCupid has made far better and far more triggering analysis:



That survey asked for the optimal age for a "partner" aka serious girlfriend or wife. 20 was the lowest choice in the above, it would have been 18 if allowed.

Here's another little gem:

[Leonard D Neubache]

Who was the soy incel at Buzzfeed who in regards to the supposed female love of 'a sense of humor' accidentally struck upon the gem "I realised women do not find funny men funny, they find hot men funny".

For that one line alone he goes into the hall of fame.
