Selection criteria

According to the latest research published yesterday, apparently, when it comes to choosing a guy for them, girls choose based on many criteria. But guys were pretty standard; as long as the girl was above a certain physical attractiveness threshold, anyone would do. He would take them all had he the chance.

Then I heard another version. Girls were given photographs of guys together with the guys’ job. Thus, the girls got to choose from guys ranging from handsome/successful to ugly/unsuccessful. The results were surprising. Instead of the expected clamour and top heavy pattern skewed towards handsome/successful guys, the result was a bell curve, with the most popular guys being the averagely handsome/successful types.

The justification was that no 1 wants ugly/poor guys and no1 wants the pressure/insecurity and pressure of the handsome/successful guy either.

Interesting observations, don’t you think?
