Back to the Past

According to the Daily Mail (UK), what men really want is demure housewives and what women really want is big strong guys to provide for them. Or so the paper would have us believe, publishing the results of a survey that found that the trait most desired by men seeking a woman was "taking care of our home." The top trait that women are looking for is "listens to what I say," followed by "financial stability."

This is hard to square with the way we are actually living our lives these days, and some of the stats are just laughable (do a quarter of women really look for a green thumb when they select a mate?). But what do you expect from the paper that brought us the dumbest story of 2008?
