lawrocket 3 #1 April 10, 2008 http://news.yahoo.com/s/livescience/20080410/sc_livescience/whybeautifulwomenmarrylessattractivemen Why Beautiful Women Marry Less Attractive Men QuoteThe reason, researchers suspect, is that men place great value on beauty, whereas women are more interested in having a supportive husband. QuoteOverall, wives and husbands behaved more positively when the woman was better looking. The finding "seems very reasonable," said Dan Ariely, a professor of behavioral economics at MIT's Program in Media Arts and Sciences and Sloan School of Management. "Men are very sensitive to women's attractiveness. Women seem to be sensitive to men's height and salary," said Ariely, who was not involved in the recent study. In couples with more attractive husbands, both partners were less supportive of one another. McNulty suggests wives mirror, in some ways, the level of support they get from husbands. Sweet!!!

fireballgrl 0 #10 April 10, 2008 Interesting study... Has some valid points I personally have tended to shy away from certain men and been attracted to certain men far more because of personality traits than initial attraction levels.

NWFlyer 2 #16 April 10, 2008 What I love about that photo is you and the baby have the same look on your face. Did the photographer just wave a stuffed animal at you?

No. I got him to smile by shaking him up and down and stopping for the photo. He's not smiling - he's laughing. And me? I'm panting. My wife is hotter than your wife.

DFWAJG 4 #22 April 10, 2008 Me too! But I don't know if I agree with this study. My ex-husband (I'm so excited I can say that now) and an ex-boyfriend were not so pretty. They didn't respect me at all. The most respect came from the handsome ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
