New Delhi: If you
thought that chocolate boys and clean-shaven men are the first
choice of Indian women, then it's time for a reality check. Women
prefer men with different styles of facial hair rather than the
boring clean face, reveals a survey.
Conducted by Philips India in collaboration with research agency
Hansa, the survey involved 600 respondents between the ages of 15
to 25 in New Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Pune and Chandigarh, said a
statement.
The results reveals that 54 percent women respondents in the
age-group of 21-25 years find men with styled facial hair like
goatee, moustache, and beard more attractive. While 50 percent
women associate them with modernity, another 35 percent women
think of them as outgoing.
However, men are unaware of this new change in choice in the
opposite sex as 67 percent of them believe that women prefer
clean-shaven men.
As far as body hair is concerned, more than 95 percent of women
admitted that too much body hair come in the way of intimacy,
while 70 percent would like their men to have no body hair or at
least trim them.
Men also are in sync in thoughts with women as 80 percent of them
have already tried different ways of removing body hair, ranging
from shavers to trimmers and body-groomers.
