When it comes too online dating, men go for women who are sexy and superficial, according to a new survey.

To find what qualities attracted men to women, Hayley Quinn, a dating expert created two contrasting profiles on the dating app Tinder, where one featured the real her while the other included a made up, make up loving, dumbed-down bio with sexy photos, the Daily Star reported.

The results showed that the men went for the 'sexy' profile rather than the real one.

Quinn, 27, who has helped more than 100,000 men find love, said that she decided to do the video as people spent most of the time online these days, and was worried that people were buying into a "fake-perfect version of reality."

However, she added that she was "pleasantly surprised" as even though the sexy profile scored more, people seemed to show more sincere interest in real profile.
