Women look for a good sense of humour when picking out a partner.<\/p>\n
This is according to research at Penn State – published in the American Journal of Play – as they found it rated second in a list of 16 character traits that females want to see in males.<\/p>\n
The ladies in question were between 18 and 26 and being fun loving and playful came in third and fourth respectively in their rundown of desirable qualities.<\/p>\n
Garry Chick, professor and head of the department of recreation, park and tourism management, stated: "Our results suggest that adult playfulness may result from sexual selection and signal positive qualities to potential long-term mates."<\/p>\n
He added it may be possible for men to showcase their suitability to women by acting on their playfulness.<\/p>\n
In terms of what males like to see in females, being physically attractive, healthy and having good heredity all scored highly.<\/p>\n
