Canadian researchers conclude that women are attracted to ASSHOLES. WHO WOULD HAVE BELIEVED IT???
Brooding Men, Smiling Women Seen As Sexy, Study Shows

Guys, want to look sexy and get the girl? Don't smile too much. Look brooding or show a bit of shame instead. Women, ignore that advice.

Women find happy men less sexually attractive than those with expressions that show pride or hint that they have done wrong and know it, according to Canadian researchers.

The study published online Tuesday in the American Psychological Association journal Emotion showed pictures of the opposite sex to both men and women. Participants were then asked for their initial reactions on sexual attractiveness based the expressions they saw.

"Men who smile were considered fairly unattractive by women," said Jessica Tracy, a University of British Columbia psychology professor who directed the study.

7. I've always liked happy, friendly guys who
aren't afraid to smile. I've never found broody, self-aware men attractive.

10. Absolutely true in my case.
All of my relationships have been assholes, including my ex-husband (may he rest in peace).
