A new survey shows that women in New Zealand want a man who is funny and muscular.

Results of the poll showed that 33.8% of women want their prospective partner to be aged 26 to 34, while 64.5% would love to meet someone who is "masterful".

Over half of the respondents (59.4%) want "Mr. Right" to be muscular, while 32.8% would prefer him lean. Just 7.8% are looking for someone who is "beefy".

The list also proved cheesy chat-up lines don't work - 77.2% want a man who is "easy-going and funny" but only 17.3% liked "smooth and charming" guys.

"Strong and silent" types are unpopular with a wimpy 5.5%, while less than one per cent of women like facial hair.
