I cannot remember more than a couple of women, and I have polled dozens, who did not choose power as the thing they were drawn to most
I have a game I have been trying out at parties for a decade. I ask women to give it a thought, and then choose the order in which they would be attracted to the following types of men as their partner:
- Good-looking
- Powerful
- Stable.
No other quality in these three men is defined, and they are what those words mean. Almost invariably, women choose the powerful man as the one they are most attracted to. This is followed by the stable man and last, the good-looking one. I cannot remember more than a couple of women, and I have polled dozens, who did not choose power as the thing they were drawn to most.
I ask men to choose from the following:
- Beautiful
- Rich
- Homely
Men always choose beautiful first; most pick homely second and rich last.
