Gather
round, ladies, because I’m about to lay some science on you. A recent
study suggests that, wait for it, many men like having hot wives.
This urgent newsflash comes via the Huffington Post, which reports that researcher
Andrea Meltzer, a psychologist at Southern Methodist University,
rounded up over 450 newlywed couples. Each of ’em was rated by hotness (by a team of totally objective scientists, not a teen clique, for your information). Then, over the next four years, they were periodically asked to rate
their satisfaction in marriage.
According to the resulting study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Meltzer and her colleagues found that the impact of wives’ beauty on husbands’ happiness was
“significantly stronger than the nonsignificant effect of husbands’
attractiveness on wives’ satisfaction.” In other words, they concluded that, generally, dudes care whether their
spouse is gorgeous and women mostly don’t.
