‘A father is a daughter’s first love’. Absolutely true! Even after all those years of growing up and socializing, one thing that stays is our affection for the parent of opposite sex. The same law governs here. When we meet someone who looks similar to our ‘beloved’ parent, we tend to be more attracted to the person. Research shows that similarity in eye colour and hair is a strong attractive pull towards an individual. (Source)

Yes, it does, unfortunately. Doesn’t mean you need to add the broader soles but being tall is just better. Especially, when it’s the man! What girl would not like her head tucked under his chin or stretching on her toes for a kiss? Taller men do enjoy a certain level of advantage when dating. The social advantages, confidence that comes with the tall stature and so much more! It’s just simply disarming! (Source)

One thing that never goes unnoticed when anyone is close is the body odour. How you smell is very important. Also, there are certain studies which have shown that fertile women (those who are ovulating) are attracted to the body smell of a man with high testosterone levels. Call it the hormonal issues or something else, but that’s just the truth. Maybe that’s why girlfriends like moving around in their guy’s shirts. It’s comfy, cool and smells of him. (Source: 1, 2)
