CapeTalk's Clarence Ford speaks to Barbara Friedman about trending online stories.

A survey conducted by Date Psychology, which was originally published last year has resurfaced and sparked debates online.

The survey reveals which hobbies make men more attractive to women.

At the top of the list of hobbies that make men most attractive to women is: reading.

The survey listed 74 male hobbies. Women were subsequently required to designate the hobby as “attractive” or “unattractive” for a man to do and reading came out tops, with a staggering 98.2% of women rating it as an attractive hobby.

Learning foreign languages, playing an instrument, cooking, and woodworking rounded out the top five.

Painting, writing, gardening, and photography also rated well, indicating that creativity is also alluring.

Conversely, it appears that interest in online activities is extremely unattractive to women, with “the manosphere", arguing online, gambling, watching porn all scoring dismally low marks.

Also, crypto, anime, cosplay, wearing makeup, clubbing, drinking, smoking, marijuana and cigars, and debating were similarly rated as unattractive by more than two-thirds of women.

Number one on the list of least attractive things to women is: comic books.

Here are some snippets of the study.

However, there are lovers and critics of this survey making their feelings clear on this online.

Some say, "... the top of the list are all creative, physically active, or intellectually stimulating activities,” one defender declared. “The things on the bottom of the list are primarily about checking out and escapism.”
