Many women will find it hard to believe, but new research suggests men increasingly value intellect and character in a partner over a shapely figure. However, women now tend to be more interested in a man’s looks than before, and less preoccupied by their wealth as they are able to depend on themselves financially.

America is screwed. That ‘sexual fantasy with a black man’ thing could get 0bama re-elected. Add to that Sandra Fluke, Elizabeth Warren, Nancy Pelosi and female actresses employing scare tactics and evoking tears, tears and more tears aimed at garnering female votes and America is screwed.

Any claims that "men" believe A, while "women" believe B should be regarded in the same way "blacks believe C" or "crippled people believe D".

Individuals are different.

You can show 2 groups of women the same picture of normal good looking guy. If Group A women are told he is 6’4” they rate him a 10. If Group B is told he is 5’8” they rate him a 5. Same guy, same picture.

Sorry, but this is nonsense. What’s the use of having the intellect of Albert Einstein if they look like Helen Thomas or Sandra Fluke?

Every trash can has its lid. There is some one for everyone, practically.

I am.. I see it at Happy Hours, the gym etc.. women of my generation(20 somethings) are asking the men(attractive) out today. I see it all the time.

No, guys are not going to ask out a ugly woman but I believe what the article is implying is men may consider going out with that smart, confident 6/10 woman now instead of going after the 8+/10 woman before..

People say lots of things, often they say what they believe they’re supposed to say.

Then there’s reality.
