Women prefer to date ugly men

By panda

Researchers at Newcastle University believe that ugly men exist as a way of repairing the gene pool. Women would rather date men with good genes, who can fight disease easily and not the classically handsome man.

According to Diane Felmee a sociologist - only 1/3 of women believe that a man’s looks are the first thing that attracted them to him. Most women preferred a sense of humor, money and men with successful careers.

as far as women wanting to date ugly men...

what a load of garbage. does anyone actually believe that? I should hope not

as a man i can say that:

1) she must be presentable. she must be good looking enough that I dont recoil in some way when I see her. if i can see myself kissing this girl and enjoying it then thats good enough

2) she must be nice to be around. its ALOT more important to me that a girl be nice, have a good sense of humor, and be relatively adventurous... like willingness to do outdoors activities and such

number 2 is more important than number one. if i had to pick between a hot girlfriend who wont do anything but go to the mall and shop and a homely girl who loves to have fun and i can have a good conversation with... i would pick the latter without a moment of hesitation.

most women think on similar terms

its about whether you can live with that person not whether you want to masturbate to their image

my point in saying "who cares" is simply this:

by analyzing this issue you are thinking way too deeply about this. My number one problem with relationships and such in the past is over-analyzing. Sitting around all the time thinking "did she like this" "did she like that" "do i look good enough" "am i funny or interesting enough"

just dont care. do what YOU love to do and be open to being friends with anyone you run into. once you find people you like who like you for who you are then youre set

if you want a good girlfriend then go out and make lots of girl friends. find girls you like being around who like being around you and then once youve established that your personalities and friends and such match well then move onto dating.

you cant change if youre ugly. unless youre just ugly because youre out of shape.

I don't think that looks are everything. I like humour and a generous nature.

I have to say though that looks do come into it.

I mean somebody like John Prescott, he is yuk to me and yet according to some people he is a great person.

I like Brad Pitt but to be honest I think he would bore me to death.

So, is it 50/50 and could you get used to somebody who is, as they say 'ugly' and fall in love with thier personality.

Physical attraction is an odd thing.

My thoughts are my own, but I doubt my Mum would agree with some of them.

Looks mean a lot, no matter how much people deny it, it's the same in the animal kingdom, alot of creatures have ways of making thesmelves look more apealing to the oposite sex. Men try to improve their looks for one thing only, to impress women. And i don't think many women can claim looks don't mean alot. There are chemistry/love factors, money, career factors to include, but all in all, looks may be what tips the balance in whether or not a woman is interested in you.

Fighting for the bathroom mirror...lol

Once during training, I had to share a room with a drop dead handsome hunk....the girls would literally throw themselves shamelessly at him....and he would toy with them.....sometimes even hurt their feelings....

I would literally get ignored.....as for him ...he always wanted an audience to show off...

This guy would literally take half an hour just to comb his hair into place....before that he would apply all sorts of cream into his face, neck and hands...for this to happen he used to make sure all the curtains are wide open and lights on....

But he was a good friend to me....

Ugly guys like us get a chance when the girls want to get revenge from these hunks......I made sure they got it...lol

Ugly men try harder. They care more about you and treat you like a princess. Good-looking guys are self-obsessed. That’s not attractive.

UGLY huh?? well, the question is how ugly? but yes i agree "Most women preferred a sense of humor, money and men with successful careers." Also, Women are definitely attracted to a man's appearance...well, only for the first 30-45 seconds at most. No offense guys thats just how it is.

Guess I've never really thought about what people look like...if I like them, I hang out with them. Dating...I always had to be attracted to them first...and you can fall in love with a rich man as easily as you can a poor man. Don't get me wrong..Mr Scarlett is handsome...but before I met him, I dated a lot of toads that turned out to be real princes...and some hunky princes that turned out to be lower than pond scum.

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.

Agree with you..but do women really like to date an ugly man with loads of money? or an ugly man with good sense of humor?

looks are not the first priority...but its definetly not the last either..atleast for me!:)

compete for the bathroom mirror with them. For the most part, men that are just totally drop dead gorgeous are also egotistical morons who can't pass a reflective surface without stopping...(hmm ok so that goes for that kind of woman also!) Someone you want to date has GOT to have a good head on his shoulders, not just something nice to look at...

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
