Lauren and I were discussing the results of the “Great Male Survey” about men and dating, and we learned the obvious. Most of us guys are shallow. Over 100,000 guys were surveyed across the US, UK, Canada and Australia. We didn’t have time to give you all of the results on the air, so here’s the complete list of findings from the survey:
1.) 31% of men said the most important trait when it comes to deciding whether a woman is relationship material is a sense of loyalty. 25% said a sense of humor, 24% said a sense of caring or nurturing, and only 20% said intelligence.
2.) Is it important for a girlfriend to have wife potential? 48% said somewhat but they wouldn’t break up with her if they realized she didn’t have wife potential. 30% of guys said he wouldn’t pursue a woman who WASN’T a potential wife, and 22% said not at all.
3.) 67% of men believe in the institution of marriage, and they’re all about it. But 18% said that while they believed in it, it wasn’t for them. And 15% said they DIDN’T believe in it.
4.) When asked how likely they’d be to cheat if there was NO chance of their girlfriend or wife finding out: 38% said “not at all,” and that while they might be TEMPTED, it violates their morals. Another 38% said “not very likely,” because they respected their partner.
–Another 17% said “somewhat likely,” but that they’d feel guilty. 5% said “very likely,” because, quote, “she can’t be hurt if she doesn’t know about it.” And 2% said they ALREADY cheat on their partner.
5.) And when asked if they’d dump a girlfriend if she became, quote, “fat” . . . 46% said yes. But 54% said NO
