MATCH.COM BLOG - Feb 2 - "Singles in America", Match.com's second annual study on singles, dives deep into how singles are living and thinking in 2012. ~5,K singles participated in the survey. The Singles in America study was funded by Match.com in association with biological anthropologist, Dr. Helen Fisher; sex and relationship therapist, Dr. Laura Berman; evolutionary biologist with The Kinsey Institute at Indiana University, Dr. Justin R. Garcia; and the Institute for Evolutionary Studies (EvoS) at Binghamton University. Here are just a few of the study’s most groundbreaking results:
- Fidelity is regarded as a more important quality in the U.S. president than in a partner. 62% of men and 80% of women say that sexual fidelity in a relationship is a “must have.” But almost 9 out of 10 respondents believe there are “no acceptable excuses” for infidelity by a political candidate (87% of men and 91% of women).
- Men are more willing to make a commitment without being in love or feeling sexually attracted to their partner.
- Singles over 60 are most likely to insist on a partnership that includes sexual attraction and romance.
