Is Grey Hair Good For Your Sex Life?

Is Grey Hair Good For Your Sex Life?

Do men think women with gray hair are sexy? One woman conducts a daring dating experiment.

"I realized that there was a close-to-the-bone experiment I could conduct to test whether going gray would be a detriment to romance for a woman my age. I could fudge my marital and parental status and offer myself up on an Internet dating site to men in the New York City area. And with the miracle of Photoshop, I could do it as both a gray-haired and a brunette 50-year-old.

My plan was first to create a post with a photo of me with gray hair and leave it up for three weeks. Then, a few months later, I'd post the same description and the same photo, but this time with brown hair. I chose Match.com for my experiment because its membership of 20 million seemed to me most interested in no-strings-attached dating; I didn't want to mislead anyone into thinking I wanted to get married."
