Can confirm. As someone who feels that he has punched above his weight, the biggest feedback I got from the girls I was with was that they appreciated me being upfront and honest about my intentions. Girls are fine with you telling them what you want so long as you are ok with the answer being no.

I find this entire study questionable from a methodological standpoint. It’s hard to tell from the article itself, but if the researchers just described the traits of the people in the photos, that isn’t very revealing at all, because of course the test subjects will say they find helpfulness and honesty attractive in the abstract.

But do they actually find those traits attractive in real life? That’s the real question, and if the researchers merely told the test subjects Person A is like this and Person B is like that, I don’t find their results convincing at all.

Dark Triad also confirmed as more attractive so there is that too.

Helpfulness = offering value

Honesty = showing that you're legit and not putting on an act

Nothing new here folks

If you're being honest and helpful just to appear attractive, you already lost the game.

The most attractive trait in men is mystery not honesty.

There's a line between being a door mat/nice guy and being vulnerable (honest). One is desirable, the other is repulsive.
