To find out, they showed snaps of two men, both posing with and without a cat, to 708 women between the ages of 18 and 24. The women were asked to rate the men on their masculinity and personality - and to indicate whether or not they would date them.
Women viewed men as less masculine when holding the cat, higher in neuroticism, agreeableness and openness, and less datable.
