Look, we all make assumptions about what men may or may not be interested in.

Women’s Health Magazine decided to find out and surveyed 6,000 Men’s Health Twitter followers. The result surprisingly was the face. Of the men surveyed, 38% said it was the first thing they noticed. Don’t swoon just yet though, following close behind another 34% said your bum was the first thing that caught their attention. Only 18% admitted it was the boobs and 10% said legs. A similar survey of women found that while we’re slightly less creepy, we’re not too dissimilar to our male counterparts. When asked about  men on beaches, women confessed that the first thing we check out is his abs, followed by his face, then arms. Interestingly, our eyes never stray to his package. It differs slightly when it comes to a man on the street. Firstly we’re interested in his eyes, then his smile, followed by his height, and then his hands. When it comes to personality, women all basically seek the same thing in a partner. A study conducted by Evolutionary Psychology has found that attractiveness is not the primary desire. Instead, it’s how altruistic a mate is. Attractiveness plays a part of course, with partners of equal attractiveness and kindness being the most popular. In the study, women were presented with images of men acting in bravery or kindness including things like saving drowning child or buying a homeless person a sandwich. The study states: “Altruism plays a role in mate choice, particularly in women’s preferences and in long-term (LT) relationships. The current study analysed how these preferences interacted with another important mate choice variable, physical attractiveness. Here, female participants were presented with photographs of men of varying levels of physical attractiveness, alongside descriptions of them behaving either altruistically or not in different scenarios. The results showed women preferred altruistic men, particularly in LT relationships and that this interacted with physical attractiveness such that being both attractive and altruistic made a man more desirable than just the sum of the two desirable parts”. Looks like nice guys don’t finish last after all.
