Women always go for nice guys

In the long run women will always choose a nice guy.


That's the conclusion of a new study.


Published in the British Journal of Psychology , the study said what women really want is men with big hearts, reports The Daily Express.


In experiments, men who had "altruistic interests" - such as working for a charity - were consistently found to have much more appeal.

Dr Pat Barclay said: "Folk wisdom argues that 'nice guys finish last' and are less attractive than 'bad boys'.

"We found that women showed a strong preference for relationships with altruistic men.

"This suggests that women are attuned to generosity, and altruism serves a purpose in mate selection."

The study of 150 Canadian women concluded: "If a man is kind and generous towards others - even strangers - then there's a good chance that he'd make a good and generous parent."

In case of men: They don't give much thought to how kind-hearted a woman is, unless they plan to marry.
