This make not be breaking news, but men don’t necessarily want to marry Victoria’s Secret supermodels like Gisele Bundchen and Naomi Campbell.
According to a study (as reported by the Daily Mail), men don’t want to marry high-maintenance sexy ladies. They’d rather marry someone plump and enjoyable to be around. Duh?
The ideal wife would be a ‘thoughtful’ and ‘charming’ non-smoker, with a third of men favouring a gentle nature.
And in spite of the hours women spend trying to emulate the willowy models in magazines, men would rather settle down with a woman they can trust who will get on with their parents.
‘Even though men may fantasise about dating a mad, bad and crazy-to-know woman, the reality is that they would rather settle down with someone they can trust,’ said Stephen Rolt of www.ukdating.com.
‘Having a personable demeanour is also essential if they’re to pass that critical meet-the-parents test. Because, even though he’s making his own way in the world, a man still wants approval from Mum when it comes to his partner.
‘The size-zero ideal is a myth, not just for women trying to attain it, but also in what men want. Men are happy with the simple pleasures in life and look for a stress-free relationship. A neurotic, stick-thin sleep-around couldn’t be further from their ideal match.’ [Daily Mail]
What more needs to be said? Can we move on from here, as a people and stop giving Kate Moss so much business?
