Two-thirds of the women told a poll they believed shared values and interests were more important than looks.

The survey's findings go against the recent publicity surrounding so-called cougars, middle-aged women who date considerably younger men.

心理学家塞西莉亚·德·费莉丝博士说：“对于英国女性而言，一段成功恋情的关键在于找到志趣相投的人，也就是能够与她们真正产生共鸣的人。

"While some couples successfully transcend conventional age barriers, many people find it more satisfying to relate to someone their own age because their experiences and outlook on life are more likely to be similar."
“尽管有些伴侣超越了传统的年龄障碍，但很多人认为找一个与自己年龄相仿的伴侣会更美满，因为这样两个人在人生经历和人生观上都有更多的共同点。

"Clearing up after a twenty-something who doesn't know how to use the washing machine, however gorgeous, is not most women's idea of fun."
“不管人长得有多帅，整天要跟在一个连洗衣机都不会用的毛头小伙后面收拾残局，想必不是多数女性希望的生活乐趣。”
