Fox News has reported on a study that says newlyweds are more happy when the woman is more attractive than the man. But they report the story as though it is the secret for marital bliss... when the study only talks about people who got married within the previous 6 months. I wonder how this would change if you look at the marriage in 5 years.
"Psychologists who studied newlyweds found men who were better-looking than their wives were more likely to be unhappy and have negative feelings about their marriage.
In couples where the wife is more attractive, both partners tended to be very content."
The proof is in. Men are shallow. Is anyone, anywhere surprised? This fits the stereotype well that women are more interested in being married (with less regard to the partner), while men are happier when they manage to punch above their weight.
