World’s Sexiest Man

TORONTO (Reuters) – When it comes to romance, women prefer someone
who tickles their funny bone while men opt for those who catch their
eye, according to an international survey released on Wednesday.

The survey, conducted in 16 countries by Canadian romance publisher Harlequin
Enterprises, asked men and women on six continents about traits they liked
or disliked and how they went about trying to meet Mr. or Ms. Right.

When
it came to that first meeting, a majority of men polled said beauty was
more important than brains, while women put a sense of humor
at the top of their list.

The poll revealed differences between countries in the way people tried
to impress the opposite sex.

Australians and British men frequently admitted drinking too much, while
about half of German and Italian men said they had lied about their finances.
Spaniards were the most likely to use sex to catch someone’s eye.

After six or seven boilermakers our glass eye (we lost the original during
a mad orgy on our yacht) tends to pop out unexpectedly, so it’s nice to have
someone catch our eye before it hits the floor…..
