Young women find dogs sexier than smartphones.<\/strong> The bad news for geeks was released on Thursday in a Retrevo.com study aimed at finding out whether gadgets make people more attractive as love interests.<\/p>\n

While about half of men surveyed in the “Gadgetology” study thought seeing someone using a hip smartphone was attractive, only 36 percent of women shared that sentiment.<\/p>\n

“More women under 35 say they are more attracted to someone walking a dog than someone using a cool phone,”<\/strong> Retrevo said in an “iPads Don’t Make You Look as Cool as You Think” titled blog post detailing the study results.<\/p>\n

Retrevo found that both men and women felt it was slightly more alluring to see someone reading a book than wielding one of Apple’s coveted iPad tablet computers.<\/p>\n

Flashing sophisticated gizmos did appeal to the more affluent<\/strong>, with people earning more than $200,000 dollars annually inclined to think others more attractive if they had slick smartphones, laptops or iPads, the study found.<\/p>\n
