"Men, you're going to love this. Women, you're not going to believe it. A poll conducted by Playgirl magazine determined that women like men to be a little hairy and chubby.
The New York Daily News reports that among 2,000 readers of Playgirl, 42 percent said they thought love handles were sexy, while another 47 percent approved of chest hair. To that end, the magazine is on the hunt for a man who fits these criteria. No toned hunks need apply.
Just 4 percent of the women polled said a man's wealth matters, while fully 73 percent preferred a man who is "rough around the edges." "This survey shows that the guy who's most attractive to our readers is not your average Hollywood hunk," Playgirl editor Jill Sieracki told the Daily News. "It's the average Joe who came up on top. Women are practical about their choices, and they're smart."
Meanwhile, when Cargo magazine asked 866 women the sexiest clothing a man can wear, the overwhelming answer with 58 percent of the response was blue jeans and a T-shirt! Another 19 percent prefer their guys in a stylish shirt and pants, and 17 percent say a suit and tie is best."

"If you want to win her heart, you don't need expensive presents or jewelry. All you need is a restaurant reservation.
Men who want to impress a woman will do best to wine and dine her. Who says so? Not advice columnists. Not psychologists. Not marriage counselors. Not even women. Mathematicians say so.
A team of mathematicians from Imperial College London developed a mathematical formula to determine the best way to woo a woman. They did this by modeling courtship as a sequential game, report Reuters and New Scientist.
The results:
Cheap gifts: Women aren't impressed. Don't waste your money.
Expensive gifts: These definitely show a woman that the man in question has serious intentions, but the ploy can backfire if the woman is a gold-digger. Once she receives the gift, it's bye-bye Mister.
Dinner dates:
A dinner at a fancy restaurant or an elegant evening at the theater are considered expensive, but worthless gifts. (They're "worthless" because they don't have lasting value, such as a diamond pendant or a ruby ring). Why is a worthless gift so effective? If the woman is not interested and doesn't accept the invitation, there is no cost to the man. Spending a lot of money on dates is essential to impress the woman. Don't think a cheap fast food dinner followed by an at-home video on the old TV will do the trick. "Our analysis shows there is evolutionary logic in men 'burning money' to impress the girl," study co-author Robert Seymour told Reuters.
The takeaway: Dinner is better than a diamond, but the dinner had better include three courses, a bottle of wine, and a white linen tablecloth with romantic lighting. Violinists are optional.
The study findings were published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society of London."
