I'm writing a paper for school about humor and mate selection. I've found a lot of interesting information on what people find attractive in a mate and humor is something that has very little research done. Some studies say humor doesn't matter, granted they are older articles, but I really think humor is something we see as very important. I know when I'm looking for a mate I'm look for someone with a sense of humor!
So my question is, when you are looking for a partner, do you look for someone that has a sense of humor? Would you rank humor in the top five qualities you are looking for?
I wish we could have more poll questions, but if you would take the time to explain your answer and list your top five qualities you look for in a partner that would be awesome!!! Also state whether you are male or female, it's a huge part of my paper, because men and women see humor very differently when looking for a partner!
I would like to include the poll results in my paper, and I might PM people I want to hear more from and maybe include their thoughts in my paper.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about for the top five:
I look for a man/women that is:
funny
intelligent
outgoing
has a good job (makes a good living)
caring
Thanks!!!
