Date Gal - Love, Sex and Relationships

How Sexy is Your Profession?


A study conducted by Fast Impressions was released yesterday stating that DOCTORS are the most dateable profession for both men and women whilst POLITICIANS ranked amongst the least desirable.

Over 400 participants took part in the survey and compared the "sexiness" and "dateability" of 20 professions. The results are as follow:





WHAT DO THE WOMEN THINK?
- 92% of women would date a doctor, followed by lawyers, architects and property consultants (all 88%)
- Athletes were considered the sexiest male profession (78%) followed by firemen (75%) and doctors (69%)
- Whilst 67% of women consider male models sexy, only 56%would be willing to date one

WHAT DO THE MEN THINK?
- Men consider doctors and models to be the most dateable profession (92%), followed closely by nurses, airhostesses, dancers and musicians (all 88%)
- 100% of men agreed models were sexy, followed by dancers (96%), stewardesses (92%) and athletes (88%)

Isn't it interesting that the blokes find the same professions both dateable and sexy? Does that mean they are a tad superficial?


What do you make of these results? Do you agree/ disagree? Is there another profession that should have made the top 5?

No suprises that journalists didnt make the list,lol.

Interesting to note that sexy doesn't necessarily equate to dateable so obviously its more than just about looks which is good to see.
2. November 2nd 2006 @ 01:55. DateGal Says:
Yes Tony - you're point is right when it comes to women as they look pass the sexy component.

However the men - see sexy and dateable as the same thing!!! A little superficial perhaps?

Sorry journalists didn't even make the top 20 - but that doesn't mean they're not dateable or sexy!

Have you ever dated someone just for their profession?

Or even been dumped because you're profession wasn't up to scratch?
3. November 2nd 2006 @ 02:00. TonyK Says:
Very good point, yea there are still a lot of superficial people out there, men and women and unfortunately that will never change, their loss.

Haha, yea Im sure we are dateable and sexy, maybe not trustworthy, read somewhere a while ago that journalists rate alongside mechanics and car salesman in the trustworthy stakes.

With regards to have I ever dated someone solely on the basis of their profession, no, I think that would be incredibly shallow and you would just end up cheating yourself out of happiness.

Be the same as your post yesterday, not dating someone because their breasts are too big or too small.

Havent been dumped because my profession wasnt up to scratch either, which is a good thing
4. November 2nd 2006 @ 02:24. DateGal Says:
Well yes journalists can be very un trustworthy but there are some dcent ones are there!

Glad to hear that profession doesn't come into you head when dating!

Let me ask though would you date a stripper? Or garbage collector? A toliet cleaner?
5. November 2nd 2006 @ 02:31. TonyK Says:
Garbage collector or toilet cleaner I wouldnt care so much, long as I was attracted to them looks wise and personality wise.

However, stripper, thats a tough one, Im not sure I would be overly comfortable with other men seeing someone Id date comepletely naked, admittedly they dont get to touch but still wouldnt feel right.

How about you, if you were in that position, would you date a male stripper?
6. November 2nd 2006 @ 05:17. DateGal Says:
Um would depend if I trusted them and if I had a real connection and feelings for them!

I think when two people are together and they are happy = nothing else in the world should matter!
7. November 2nd 2006 @ 05:21. TonyK Says:
Fair enough-just thought of another thing- waitresses and hairdressers should have been in the sexiest list for the female list.

In my experience they have always been very attractive
8. November 2nd 2006 @ 05:27. DateGal Says:
Oh really - good one!

Well they didn't make top 20 either but female bar tenders did coming in 9th with 69% of votes!
9. November 2nd 2006 @ 05:40. TonyK Says:
My sister in law used to be a bar tender-thats where her and my brother first met
10. November 2nd 2006 @ 06:45. KylieW Says:
I can't help but notice the disparity in the lists of Sexy female professions and Male sexy professions.

The female professions aren't exactly what you'd consider to be the most intellectually challenging kinds of jobs. Yet the jobs that females find attractive include doctors and architects (sure there's still the model and athlete in there, so there still lots that just want a good looking fella).

Seems to me, that the survey is saying that guys are still more focused on looks. While women want security. I'm disappointed. It's so cliche!

I'm pretty sure HR people didn't rate anywhere on the list. Oh well.
11. November 2nd 2006 @ 06:52. TonyK Says:
Maybe next year Orble bloggers will make the list??lol
12. November 2nd 2006 @ 07:02. KylieW Says:
Oh I'm sure we'll be up there. : )

Or perhaps we do our own survey and create our own lists? I know that I for one don't find models sexy, and I can't say I'm in a hurry to date a real estate or property agent . Can't even say I've got a thing for firemen....though apparently lots of girls do.
13. November 2nd 2006 @ 07:05. DateGal Says:
Hi Kylie W - the same professions for each sex was given to the group so yes your comments are quite correct that the men have based their opinions on looks!

Sorry no HR professions there but I am sure they would be just out of the 20!

DG

P.S - Tony K we should defiantly put it to them about Orble bloggers - or perhaps just writers!!!
14. November 2nd 2006 @ 07:06. DateGal Says:
Great idea Kylie W - it may be something I will start adding to this blog - surveys, opinions polls, etc!

I think having some REAL answers from less superficial people would be more satisfying!

Thanks for the great suggestion!
15. November 2nd 2006 @ 07:07. TonyK Says:
Yea, although the fact that I have no nose might count me out,lol-referring to the pic
16. November 2nd 2006 @ 07:11. KylieW Says:
Happy to help out. Love the site!

TonyK- I was very confused there for a second when you said you didn't have a nose. lol
17. November 2nd 2006 @ 08:39. DateGal Says:
Me too TonyK and Kylie W - I thought hang on a minute - how can he not have a nose???

I get it!!! Wow Kylie - you and I must be having a slow day!

Thanks - glad you love the site!
18. November 2nd 2006 @ 08:51. TonyK Says:
Glad you both got a laugh out of it
19. November 2nd 2006 @ 11:43. yourblackpumps Says:
i want to know what caused the switch between model and doctor. is this the ultimate example of chivarly being dead? the doctor can pay for your meal, the model won't eat? oh cliches.
20. November 2nd 2006 @ 11:46. TonyK Says:
The model will eat, just not very much, maybe a lettuce leaf or two if shes feeling hungry,lol, terrible I am
21. November 2nd 2006 @ 22:43. DateGal Says:
Hilarious - yourblackpumps! I love it!

So true - the doctor apparently has money so that's attractive yet the model is a cheap date as she won't eat and well she's easy on the eye!

The way the male mind works!

I'm a professional DJ.
Nothing sexier than a handsome young man spinning cool, sophisticated, groovalicious tunes from behind the Wheels of Steel to a crowded dance floor of hot, spunky funkateers ....
23. November 2nd 2006 @ 23:34. DateGal Says:
Hi Bryn - wow, a DJ! Defiantly hot! Although you didn't make the top 20 I am sure you would be up the amongst the sexiest!

Do you think you're dateable though working late hours and weekends? And well if you're sexy, the ladies would be all over you???
24. November 2nd 2006 @ 23:37. Bryn Says:
I didn't make the Top 20 cos I'm still underground, y'know ... If I make the Top 20 I've sold out ... lol
Yeah, the late hours and weekend work can be a bitch .. but hey, dems da breaks ...
25. November 2nd 2006 @ 23:44. DateGal Says:
Nice one Bryn!!! Give yourself plug - where do you bang out those tunes!
26. November 2nd 2006 @ 23:49. Bryn Says:
For a night of party tunes I'm the four year resident at Martin Place Bar in the city, Sydney, every Friday night 6pm til after midnight.
Tomorrow night (Sat Nov 4) I'm in the Bulletproof room at Candy's Apartment (Sydney) for the monthly house party Lookin' Good ...
Next Friday (Nov. 10) I'll be at Cherri Jam in Double Bay (Sydney) for new 80s retro night Original Sin.
And next Saturday (Nov. 11) I'll be spinning deep sexy grooves at the Opera Bar (Sydney) alongside the spunky Maz on live vox and Blair on congas!
C'mon down!!! (if you live in Sydney that is)
27. November 3rd 2006 @ 02:49. DateGal Says:
Nice one Bryn = Opera Bar is great! Look forward to checking you out next time I am Sydney!!!

You have luck with the ladies being a DJ?
28. November 3rd 2006 @ 03:35. Bryn Says:
Now that's a question I get asked all the time ...
I'm spoken for, so I resist.
But trust me, I get attention.
29. November 3rd 2006 @ 03:36. TonyK Says:
Lucky bugger,lol...Maybe I should become a DJ,haha
30. November 3rd 2006 @ 04:49. DateGal Says:
That's great Bryn - if you've got it then work it baby! Glad you're having fun with the ladies but having a relationship too!

Maybe you should take a DJ course Tony K
