Forget waxed chests and rock-hard abs. A new survey finds ladies like their
men scruffy, a wee bit chubby - and definitely not a metrosexual.
Playgirl asked 2,000 of its readers what they find sexy in a man and the
answers were surprising: 42% said they thought love handles were kind of
sexy and 47% approved of chest hair.

The mag, which often features toned, hairless males in its beefcake photo
spreads, is now searching for a man who meets readers' standards.

Average Joes everywhere can send photos to models@playgirlmag.com to compete
for a shot at a pictorial in a future issue.

Rich playboys need not apply - only 4% of women said the size of a man's
wallet mattered. Metrosexuals are also out: 73% want a guy who is "rough
around the edges."

"This survey shows that the guy who's most attractive to our readers is not
your average Hollywood hunk," said Playgirl editrix Jill Sieracki. "It's the
average Joe who came up on top. Women are practical about their choices, and
they're smart."

New York matchmaker Janis Spindel, a self-described specialist at setting up
"highly successful, well-educated, attractive professionals," confirmed the
survey's findings. "It's scary, but women don't care [about looks]," she
said. "Men are very superficial and very shallow."

But Spindel disputed the claim that women don't care about finding a rich
man: "Women want a man who makes more money than they do," she said. "They
want to be able to live a comfortable lifestyle."
