When it comes to finding
a partner we all have a number of boxes we’d want that person to tick. And as
much as we want to think that we don’t have a type and just like people for who
they are, studies show that there are certain things that are hardwired into us
without us even realising. So you might think you’re totally in control of who
you like or fall in love with, and that might be to an extent, but not 100%. Here
are some surprising things men find attractive in women.
Sense Of Humor
This might seem like a
no-brainer, we all want our partner to have a good sense of humor that is
compatible with our own. But did you know that men and women mean different
things when they say that? Women generally mean they want their partner to be
funny and also to appreciate the jokes that we make too. That’s what we find
compatible. Men, however, mostly care about women laughing at their jokes and
don’t particularly care if the women are funny. In fact, it gets even weirder
when you ask them about the kind of relationships they prefer: funny women as
friends or short relationships and women who aren’t funny but laugh at their
jokes for longterm ones.
Blue Eyes
Don’t panic, it’s not
all men who prefer blue eyes. Generally, it seems like most men don’t really
care about eye color and don’t have a preference. However, men with blue eyes
according to some studies, are the only ones who have a preference and they
prefer women with blue eyes. It seems like it’s a parental kind of instinct
that’s based on wanting to preserve that trait in children. You see, the only
way to have blue eyes is two have two parents that have blue eyes. Or at least
both carry the blue eye gene.
Age
We always hear that men
like younger women or at least younger-looking women? That’s what a big part of
the beauty industry is built on. It’s all about keeping you looking young
longer. But studies show that some men prefer older, more mature looking women.
And there’s an interesting correlation there. Most men who prefer older women
are those whose mothers had kids later in life.
