Survey Unveils Key 'Marriage Material'

A new study has revealed that men and women have differing opinions when it comes to what makes their partner "marriage material".

The poll, carried out by VoucherCodesPro.co.uk, found that up to three quarters of women in Britain said trust was one of the most important things when considering if a partner was marriage material. For men, however, 64% admitted they considered sexual compatibility to be the most important factor.

For the survey, both male and female respondents were asked for their top five 'marriage material' characteristics, and while the women replied with traits such as "romantic" and "career driven", men said "a willingness [for women] to look after them" and being allowed to watch sports as being important.

Those polled were also asked what they felt was the best age to get married, with 44% of women saying 26-30 years old, and 53% of men saying 31-35 years old.

A spokesman for VoucherCodesPro.co.uk, said: "It's no surprise that the perceptions of what makes a partner marriage material between men and women is vastly different.

"Women look for a much deeper connection from their partner than men do.

"Realistically, men seem to want someone who is sexually compatible, but who will also wait on them hand and foot like their mothers would.

"It's also no surprise that the majority of men chose a higher age bracket to get married than women, as it has been proven that women are more advanced with maturity, whilst men don't quite know how to act their age."
