What do you look for in a relationship? Does your man need to be caring, well dressed, get on with your friends? Well, according to scientists, all that doesn't really matter as long as he has a deep voice.

A study conducted on communities in Tanzania has shown that women naturally select men to have their children with who have lower-pitched voices.

According to researchers from the department of psychology, neuroscience and behaviour at McMaster University, women find men with a low tone more attractive as they indicate dominance, age and health - supposedly.

Men, on the other hand prefer their ladies to have high-pitched voices, with the reasons listed being that they indicated that they were subordinate, feminine, healthier and younger sounding - how Neanderthal does this all sound?!

We say, buy us a pressie once a week and don't get freaked out when we make more money than you, and you can be as shrill as you like guys!
