It’s a truism among single women that all the best men are taken (or gay, but that’s a different matter). However, a new study on the factors that determine attraction indicates that it’s not so much the best men that are taken, but rather that the fact that men are taken makes single women thing they must be the best.

Confused? Well, the evidence the study produced is less than confusing:
184 heterosexual students, half of whom were single, participated in a study on sexual attraction and told the volunteers that a computer program would match them with an ideal partner. All the women in the study were shown the same photograph of a made-up „Mr. Right“ and all men were shown the same „Miss Perfect“. Now comes the interesting part – Read more

You want to get married? Are you still looking for the right man to marry? Or have you found the perfect guy, but are unsure if you are ready for marriage?

In the 70s that question was a topic for comics aimed at young girls. Below, we will show you a marriage quiz published in the 70s that was supposed to help young women find out if they’re ready for marriage. If you answer every question with “Yes”, you’re ready to say “Yes”. The questions fall into 3 categories:

ready for marriage quiz1. Some questions are pretty sensible – even if you don’t answer “Yes” to all of them, it’s probably a good idea to think about some issues like finances and commitment before you take a vow that will change your life.
2. Some of the other questions aren’t useless, but today you should probably answer them the exact other way around if you’re ready for marriage!
3. Some questions feel like they came straight from the dark ages and make the questionnaire feel more like an employment form for housekeepers.

Either way, if you want to get married, you should take the marriage quiz! Whatever you answer – some questions will give you pause for thought, some will make you laugh out loud and in the end it’s still up to you to decide whether you’re ready for marriage!
