Guys! Here Is One Thing Women Find More Attractive Than Good Looks
Forget about good looks, here is one thing most women find more attractive in a man many men do not know about.
According to a report by Dailystar, a new research has revealed the one quality in men that attracts women the most and it’s pretty surprising.
Forget spending hours in the gym honing that six-pack or preening in front of the mirror before date night because it turns out that ladies really aren’t that bothered about good-looking guys.
If you buy a homeless man a sandwich or rescue a drowning child then you’re more likely to attract women because what they really want is a nice, caring guy.
A recent study conducted by the journal of Evolutionary Psychology found that altruism (a selfless concern for others) was the main thing that women looked for when choosing a serious boyfriend.
Interestingly the researchers discovered that girls were more likely to choose a guy who was considerate but not hot over someone who was handsome but not that kind.
Also they noted that for less good-looking guys, showing off a selfless side would increase their attractiveness and make them seem like a more appealing long-term partner.
So if you want to secure a few dates then try volunteering at your local soup kitchen or helping an old lady cross the road.
Study author Daniel Farrelly said that generosity was seen as “a highly important characteristic trait women look for in long-term partners”.
Although when it came to one-night-stands, looks were more important than a caring personality.
“These findings make a substantial contribution to our understanding of the role of altruistic behaviour in human mate choice by including the previously unexplored additional variables of physical attractiveness,” researchers wrote.
“Overall, the results provide further support for the view that altruism acts as an important trait in mate choice, particularly for long-term relationships.”
A similar study back in 2008 asked women about the various qualities they look for in a partner.
Some of the examples included charitable behaviours such as “donates blood regularly,” “volunteered to help out in a local hospital” and “once cared for a stray dog”.
The findings revealed that ladies do in fact think that selflessness is an important factor in men – more so than scientists previously thought.
