A man’s eyes will tell you if he is looking for a brief fling or a long-term relationship. The study carried out by Dr Tom Currie of Tokyo University found that faces were far more important than bodies if men were seeking a life partner.

Psychologist Dr Anthony Little of Stirling University, told, “If you are looking for long-term relationships you are looking for a friendly, humorous, co-operative pleasant partner. But when it comes to men and short-term relationships they are not so bothered about whether someone has a nice-looking face, the body becomes a bit more important.”

The conclusions were drawn from a study of 260 volunteers, who were asked to look at images of models from the opposite sex who were dressed only in their underwear. They were then asked to rate each model for a long-term relationship or a fling. 

When looking for a long-term relationship, 20 per cent of men gave higher scores to pictures of the bodies than they did to their faces.

However, when asked to rate them for a short-term affair, 40 per cent ranked the pictures of their bodies higher than those of their faces.
