The primary finding of this study is that photos are the single greatest way to determine attractiveness. When it comes to the whole profile there are two significant findings: high masculinity is attractive in men, and extraversion is attractive in women.
FULL SUMMARY
Dr Blair-West: Based on this research, you should:
- Make sure your customers understand the importance of an accurate, quality photo.
- Help your customers to understand that certain characteristics, if they have them, should be highlighted in the profile.
- Explain to customers that the questionnaire is important, not so much for working out what they want in a partner, but what they don’t want. It is where they can identify the ‘deal breaker’ issues.
