The results are in, and just like last year, many of them are quite surprising:
Men revealed themselves to be more traditional than the women
They believe in soul mates more than we do (by just 3 percent, but still) and they more strongly believe in preserving the sanctity of marriage (75 percent for men, 63 percent women). The majority of men share our desire for a loyal partner, they want a new girlfriend to have wife potential, and they aren't likely to cheat even if their partner would never find out.
But when it comes to looks, a double chin equals a double standard
Women were nearly 20 percent more likely to stay with a partner who gained weight, whereas 48 percent of men say they wouldn't put up with it.
What attracts the opposite sex?
34 percent of women said their confidence is their main weapon to attract men. Only 17 percent use their looks as man-lure. The majority of men believe we like them for their sense of humor.
We'd both change things about our mates
Women overwhelmingly would like their partners to be more sensitive and/or considerate; while men, well, they'd really like us to be less moody and give them less attitude.
In terms of the past year's events, men believe the economic crisis was a bit overblown...
According to 85 percent of respondents, the economic crisis has not had a direct negative effect on their career progress; however it did prompt 69 percent of men to save more money and five percent more men to pay with cash in 2009 than in 2008.
...While women don't have much confidence in Sarah Palin.
