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。9 }; K# T2 I. g; U5 r t: W/ i

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 X; T+ N$ Q: g% t% W3 E! Y

研究人员进一步调查发现，女性认为，太完美的男人很难在长期的两性关系「从一而终」，担心他们条件太好，很可能外遇，而且没有时间陪家人或帮忙抚养小孩。% U- R5 f! r9 A0 D! t
