If he’s Rich and his nickname is The Human Tripod, they hit the Daily Double.

A Boy Baby and a Girl Baby are sitting on the Floor.

The Boy Baby pulls open the front of his Diaper, points down and says, you don’t have one of these.

The Girl Baby pulls open the front of her Diaper, points down and says, with one of these I can get 100 of those.

Wait a minute. The study showed women pictures and words and expected them to choose. Well, of course they chose the better looking men.

Men’s looks to me change when I get to know him. Someone may be a total hunk when we met, but if he is a jerk, he actually becomes ugly without doing anything different.

If you look as if soap is unknown and you are unacquainted with combs and their uses then you are not going to get the attention that your bathed and shaved counterpart will. Being well groomed does wonders for your looks.

Having manners is also a major plus.

People who look like they smell are not going to get as many hits even if they have wonderful personalities.

I’ve seen some gorgeous women with scummy men. I sat next to one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen in college. There was a big campus deal going on and I asked her if she was going. She told me no one had asked her. I told her that she was so beautiful that all the guys were intimidated. I didn’t ask her because I was in a committed relationship.

I think that’s why you see beautiful women with slugs. They settle. And the slugs ask them out because they got nothing to lose.

And too many watch The Kardashians and think it’s so cool to date a black thug.

I am rich and handsome. Women adore me and or my money.
It is such a bother.

I’m rich too - married into it. Wouldn’t give up my German wife for any American psycho-bitch.

Your tax dollars at work funding garbage research.

Women will never admit it but they also vote by looks. My solidly Conservative sister voted for Bill Clinton, twice.
Millions of women voted for him on the basis of looks alone.

Of the comments, I agree with yours the most.

Thank you. If we even begin to discuss the absurdity of treating this as “scientific research,” we wouldn’t have time to do the laundry or feed our pets.

You could make two EXACT profiles on match.com. Use the exact same good looking photo of the same guy for each to send back to inquiries. The only difference: list one guy as 6'-2" and the other as 5'-7". The 5'-7" guy will get NO inquiries and the 6'-2" guy's inbox will be full.

Height is everything to women.

I disagree completely with your sentiment. You weren’t ignored. You were simply kept non-jaded so when your honey bunny entered your life.. you weren’t suspicious or mean. To describe yourself in the way you did is hurtful to your gal... who thinks you are the best guy in the whole world. If she finds you handsome.. YOU are handsome. Own it, hot guy!! :)

Well, I do believe this, given the age group they surveyed. And back in the day, this wasn’t an issue for me.

Now that I’m so much older, I’m more interested in what attracts old broads, being an old man and all!

but he is not handsome ( to me anyhow) even when he was younger. (GWB was handsome, especially when he was younger) Now he looks like Death is gonna call any minute.

women's mothers (ages 37 to 61) were asked to select possible boyfriends for their daughters

There's the flaw with the study. Or one of the many flaws. The older the woman, the less they go for Mr. Tall/Dark/Handsome.

I think they are missing lots of things here. Dominance and Humor are very important to females. And you won’t get that from a bio and a picture.
