Women prefer men with beards as they're seen as more 'dominant and attractive'

• https://www.dailystar.co.uk by Sofie Foster

A study has discovered that women are more attracted to men who have beards.

The research showed that this was the case because beards made men seem more physically and socially dominant.

However, they were not seen as a sign of cleanliness and so those women who did not like hairy faces may have been turned off by the fear that they may contain fleas or lice - which may have an evolutionary root.

Those same women, who preferred a shaven face, were found to be the most afraid of parasites such as pests, like ticks, or pubic lice.

The study was conducted on almost 1,000 American woman who were quizzed about their attitudes towards facial hair in partners.
