Indeed!

We don't care if you're tall, dark and handsome!

 British daters are the least picky, figures show

Women used to look for 'tall, dark and handsome' when searching for the perfect man – but nowadays we're less picky, according to a study.

Experts from dating app Breeze analysed millions of matches and real-life dates that took place across the UK, Europe and the US last year.

While some women exclusively have a 'six-foot' rule, it turns out British daters are the least picky of them all.

When it comes to height preferences, UK daters are the least fussy, the data showed - with half of users allowing a flexible range of more than 40cm.

Analysis also revealed that only 32 per cent of UK users actually use a height filter at all. 

At the other end of the scale are Dutch users – famously the world's tallest people on average – of which 38.6 per cent use a height filter.

Marsha Goei, Chief Dating Officer at Breeze said: 'The data shows that dating in 2025 is becoming less about optimisation and more about intention.

'British singles aren't trying to 'hack' dating by narrowing down endless filters, they're keeping their options open and focusing on whether a connection feels right in real life.'

Some girls have small breasts primarily due to genetics, which dictates breast tissue and fat distribution, influenced by hormones (estrogen, progesterone), body weight (fat content), and frame size, with developmental factors like puberty, pregnancy, menopause.

Truthfully, that thought didn't occur to me whilst on holiday. The feeling started to grow as my period was due, and the relief when it started that month was huge. I didn't feel I could talk to anyone about it at that exact time, but after I realised I wasn't pregnant, I turned to Mum, and birth control!

I've recently developed an obsession with jalapeno flavoured chips/crisps. Not good to have those in my diet! I do crave a McVitie's chocolate covered digestive though, even though they now cost a small fortune over here. Oh well......

Quote from: Slivers on Jan, 06, 2026, I have this with chips or other salty snacks. Not that much of a sweet tooth, then again, I devoured a whole chocolate bar yesterday, hahaha.

I prefer sweet over salty. The really dangerous food is both sweet and salty. I get fat just thinking about it
