Go from Couch Potato to Casanova

How to Put the "Man" Back in RO-MAN-CE

According to a Survey of Women: No Need to Be Prince Charming

The question of how to woo women has haunted men since the dawn of time. But now the answer is clear, thanks to recent research. Do women want to be romanced by Prince Charming? Surprisingly, the answer is no.

Always a Chance for Romance
A recent nationwide survey of women conducted by International Communications Research offers new hope for the nation's legion of couch potatoes: 80 percent of women say they could be romanced by a man who is less than perfect.

While no man is a flawless Casanova, romance is not entirely foreign to men. In fact, 91% - exactly the same percentage as women - feel romance is important in a relationship.

What Women Want
What makes women happy? According to the survey, when it comes to romance, actions speak louder than words. When asked how they would like the men in their lives to add romance to their relationships, the top answer women gave was for him to send her flowers unexpectedly (41 percent). Other popular romantic gestures included cooking dinner for two, writing her a love song or poem and watching a romantic movie together. A small percent said they would even like to be fed grapes.
