Women choose a well-read man over tough guys
THE most desirable talent in a Scots man is being well read with a real knowledge and love of literature, according to 60 per cent of women questioned for a new poll.
Culinary skill is also high on the agenda.
Apparently the rough and tough image of celebrity chefs, such as Gordon Ramsay has dispelled the myth that real men don't cook, and 58 per cent of women want their men to be a wizard in the kitchen.
Other hidden talents that featured highly in the wish list were writing and linguistic skills and a love of extreme sports.
And half of the women questioned in the study commissioned by Drambuie Cream also wanted a partner who could play a musical instrument, preferably something difficult - like an oboe.
Rachel Morris, the relationship expert for Cosmopolitan magazine was not surprised that Scots women want more than just a pretty face .
It can be arranged, she said, with a few simple lifestyle changes.
She added: "Instead of catching forty winks on the train journey into work invest in some good books - not just Andy McNab's SAS adventures - and get reading.
"That guitar you have lying in the corner of your bedroom is only impressive to a woman if you can actually learn to play it.
"Women are always bowled over by a man with musical talent; look at how well Coldplay's Chris Martin and Travis's Fran Healy have done with the ladies. It's a winner.
"Those Saturday afternoons shouldn't just be about football and a few beers with the boys.
"Take advantage of museums and art galleries. Culture always impresses."
