STUDY: 10 Days of Facial Scruff Is Hottest, According to Women
If you find yourself inexplicably enamored of the scritchy feel of a few days of scruffy facial hair growth, you’re in good company. A new study from researchers at the University of New South Wales has finally addressed the pressing question, “How much beard is the most sexy?” For the study, which appeared in the May issue of Evolution and Human Behavior, 10 men were photographed freshly shaved, with “light stubble” after five days of growth, “heavy stubble” after 10 days, and with a full beard. Then 351 heterosexual women and 177 heterosexual men were asked to look at the photos. The researchers, who are now probably sporting exactly 10 days of sexy stubble, asked the subjects to rate the men in the photographs for attractiveness, “masculinity”, health, and parenting skills.

Does age matter? A new survey of over 4000 active members SugarDaddyForMe.com revealed that over half of the women in the U.S. were comfortable dating men 30-plus years older than them. The site's members include younger women (sugar babies) seeking older men (sugar daddies), with an arrangement that sometimes comes with love and companionship. More often, it's assumed there's a price tag of sex and money for both parties. In a world where Hollywood has embraced Cougar relationships, it's interesting to note that 7 percent of the women surveyed would date a man who was a full 60 years older than them. Other statistics include 27 percent said they would date a man 40 years older and 13 percent would date a man 50 years older. 

In a press release, SugarDaddyForMe said,

"Attitudes about dating older men and the social acceptability are rapidly changing." Almost every woman, a full 85 percent of those surveyed said they were comfortable dating men with a 20-year age gap and 41 percent of women said they would marry a man 30 years older."

According to the survey, the top five states where women were happy dating men 30 years and older were:

1. Oregon
2. Hawaii
3. Delaware
4. Maine
5. Montana
