We’re a demanding bunch…apparently

Like most days, today started with the usual skimming of the metro on the train. This time however, I came across an interesting piece which I thought I should share with our plenty more fish members!

According to the article, we are pretty demanding when choosing a partner. Here are the 15 dating demands that were picked up on.

(Dating demands not views of plenty more fish!)

  1. 82% of women aged 25-50 said it was very important for their boyfriend to have a responsible, well-paid job.
  2. 79% of men aged 25-50 said they prefer a girl to be at least three inches shorter than them
  3. 48% won’t date anyone with a weird voice….. (I don’t know whether they mean squeeky, high-pitched, deep…strange demand!)
  4. 47% would run a mile with an overly loud laugh
  5. 42% said a plus was a date who was green/environmentally conscious
  6. 16% of men aged 25-50 asked that the woman not pick her feet in front of him
  7. 15% of women say they do not want to see the words “bottle of wine” and “DVD” in a man’s profile
  8. 13% said good shoes are essential
  9. 11% of men asked that their date loves superman movies
  10. 11% of men said a gum-chewing women was a deal breaker
  11. 10% of women would get a cab home if their date can’t dance
  12. 6% of women aged 25-50 said their man must never eat peanut butter
  13. 5% of women say their man must hate Marmite
  14. 4% of men did not want a woman who plucked out her eyebrows and then drew on them
  15. 3% of women asked that their man not eat leftover pizza the next morning
So many demands!
We’ve all been known to eat leftover pizza the next morning…haven’t we?
We strongly believe that there’s someone out there for everyone and if someone doesn’t like your marmite and peanut butter loving self then so what?! Plenty more fish in the sea!
