Washboard abs? Over six feet? A lush head of hair? We can all probably think of a few qualities most women would find attractive in a man.

However, according to Study Finds, one of the traits women apparently find most attractive in men is mumbling!

Scientists with the American Institute of Physics say males who speak less clearly tend to be more attractive to the opposite sex because women see it as a sign of masculinity, and funny enough, men find precise pronunciation more attractive because it signifies femininity.

Dr. Daniel Stehr of the University of California-Irvine, who co-authored the study, said of the findings, "From a sexual selection standpoint, males with traits that are slightly more masculine than average are typically preferred, which in this context would make males with less clear speech more attractive."
