They left out one essential rating factor: size of bank account.

This kind of “research” might be indicative of something for the Tinder generation, but out in real life, meeting an actual person and forming a personal opinion of him or her is very different from looking at a photograph.

first impressions are what the less attractive need to overcome with personality unless they are rich , powerful executives ( stating the obvious)

I was lucky when it came to genetics in my family. I am the tallest, best looking and smartest. Not a boast or anything, it’s just the way it turned out. I never had a problem finding women to go out with me.

Explain Henry Kissinger, Woody Allen, Ringo Starr and almost every comedian you’ve ever heard of.

This study only looked at pictures.

I would think that once a woman gets to know a guy, she sees past the appearance to his qualities.

If a man has enough cash, he becomes attractive to women.

The lesson? If you're a homely man, pick a lucrative career and make a ton of money.

Problem solved.

Oh, wait. Are we talking about enduring relationships between a man and a woman (freaks, queers and lunatics need not apply) where two people love and care for one another?

In that case, maybe we ought not be preoccupied with physical appearance since that's going to fade anyway. Maybe we should focus on spirituality and personality.

Now, problem solved.

Show pictures of their fat bank accounts to the same women and watch how fast the same guys get better looking.

She's your mother. I wouldn't expect her to be objective, LOL. Do you think your sisters are pretty? There's no need to answer, you probably can't be objective either.

My wife thinks are kids are handsome, as do I.

Look over there (where?)
There, here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend
They say that looks don’t count for much, if so, there goes your proof

Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
‘Cause if my eyes don’t deceive me, there’s something going wrong around here

15 to 29 year olds haven’t hit the wall. They think they can have it all. Be interesting to see the results at ages 30 to 39.

The problem is, the guys 30 to 39 are wising up. More of them have come to the conclusion that they don’t want to be second fiddle given the current family court system. If they can go it alone 22-29, why not go it alone thereafter?

They forgot "bad boy."

Also, "drummer," "rich," and "drug dealer."

Women like to claim that men are superficial and only care about looks whereas women are deep and care about other things.

That is a lie.

Women care about looks and cold hard cash.

This study is crap. If women can see the men and talk to them, their idea of ugly changes. If you just show a picture they have no chance. Its a bad study and says little about women or men.

This study is B.S.

Searching for empirical evidence while being stupid is a waste of time. One might as well just speculate being stupid and save the effort.

For those of us who have lived in the real world and learned about women we damn well know that women respond to one thing above all others: being taken care of by somebody who cares about them. Yes, good looking healthy and young are attractive visually to women more than ugly. And they can feel that attraction just by looking. But the attraction of a man who takes care of them and makes them feel loved and special and beautiful blows all that away. The study may profess to measure that but it obviously doesn't. The study only TALKS about that stuff, and women don't feel it unless they feel it. The ugliest guy is "cute" when she feels him doing that. If she doesn't know the guy and the morons doing the study just say he is caring and blah blah blah, she won't see him as cute. Duh!

“While also having 61 of their mothers weigh in”

OK, but I just don’t see what their mothers weigh has to do with anything.
