It's quite common for an "average looking" but self-assured man to be more successful with women than someone who might be considered more attractive by the masses. For this, now there is an explanation.
A study published in "Psychological Science" found that men whose appearance is far from beauty standards, but who are more confident around women, are more successful with them than men who are more physically attractive.
This study involved 96 men and 103 women who participated in speed dating, where each participant spent three minutes chatting with another participant. The results showed that " men who believed they were more attractive than they actually were actually looked more attractive to women."
This confidence was the whole key to success in dating.
Furthermore, the study showed that men who worry less about their physical appearance are not only more successful with women, but are also likely to raise children with more self-confidence.
So far, something is certain about the "most desired men" by women: The loyalty and confidence they show is primary, leaving behind the physical appearance.
