4,500 blind meetings confirmed that not only men, but women also prefer to have younger men. In addition, income does not play an important role in the formation of attraction.
Both men and women feel (at least slightly) more attracted to younger partners.
The conclusions are from a new investigation, which analyzed Data from 4,500 blind meetings To challenge traditional beliefs about dating preferences: it’s not just men who prefer younger partners, guarantees the University of California.
The study, last Monday, in PNAS, included participants aged between 22 and 85 years, all looking for lasting relationships. Although it often goes on the principle that men prefer younger partners and women are looking for older partners, the results showed that women also showed a preference for younger meetings.
The investigators also examined the data from more than 6,000 blind meetings organized by the Tawkify meetings and found that most participants have established a maximum age limit for your partners – But this restriction did not significantly influence your effective dating decisions.
The study also concluded that the yield does not play an important role in the formation of the attraction.
Although the investigation provides new knowledge about the initial attraction, it has not explored if these preferences lead to lasting relationships. The results indicate that youth is a subtle but consistent attraction factor, even if people are not fully aware of it.
