英俊多金的男人，一定是女人的最爱吗？根据英国一项最新调查，受访女性认为，外貌出众同时事业成功的男人，条件太过完美，容易出轨，她们宁可选择与事业平平外貌不俗的男人交往，共度人生。 4 X& r% L, Q' X+ W6 b9 X! P5 n2 V" v. A6 |- {
据中央社伦敦九日电，中兰开夏郡大学(University of Central Lancashire)对英国近二百位年龄平均二十三岁的女大学生进行调查，询问她们寻找人生伴侣时所需要的条件，并从六十名年龄在二十五到三十多岁征婚男性提供包括年龄、职业、性向、照片等个人广告中挑选。 ( H' k" X- }" C: n) U u # k$ \. Q& |; K研究人员将这些征婚男性分为「极具吸引力」、「具吸引力」及「不具吸引力」三个类别，他们的行业从公司主管、建筑师、老师、邮差、园丁到服务生不一。 5 Y$ [9 f. c+ r( ]& Y' E. j0 ?5 [1 z; v$ m
根据刊登在「个性与个人差异」期刊的这篇最新研究报告，令人惊讶的是，俊俏多金的男人并未受到多数参与调查年轻女性的青睐，相貌出色但事业普通的男性才是女性的最爱。: G% L- d- F1 |9 m! l7 n5 D
