Why beautiful women sometimes marry unattractive men

Before I start, let me state that this has nothing to do with Siti’s choice of a husband :P . A recent study found out that one of the reason why beautiful women sometimes, marry men not “in their league” in terms of appearance because of the imbalance in the “supply-and-demand” issue. There are more beautiful women than handsome men.

A news source says that “beautiful parents are more likely to have daughters than sons, a study has shown”.

Walauweh! My firstborn is a son… so that means my wife and me are not “beautiful parents” lah? Choii. I demand a re-check of data from this study! Wait.. let me check my wedding photos……


Hmmmmmmmmmmmm… :-? ……my wife is very pretty.. i’m pretty ugly…. haha… aisey.. probably I caused the imbalance heh? Nevermind.. at least my son is handsome! Bah which couple who has a daughter as their first-born *perasan* lah tu. *cough cough*.. mimi.. retard.. didi.. *cough cough*

The study says that when the parents are beautiful and when this “beauty” traits is to be passed on to their children, the gender will be girls. On boys, the study says

Selection pressure means when parents have traits they can pass on that are better for boys than for girls, they are more likely to have boys.

Such traits include large size, strength and aggression, which might help a man compete for mates.

Hmmm.. no wonder lah Jolie and Pitt has a baby girl.
