Ugly men the most fertile

WOMEN keen to get pregnant should look for an unattractive man. Ugly men are apparently the most fertile. Good-looking men with lots of lovers, on the other hand, are likely to be less successful at siring offspring.

And scientists say it's all about "sperm load".

In many animal species, the most desirable males restrict their sperm load to ensure there is enough to go around. The same could be true of humans, say scientists.

If they are right, women looking to get pregnant should steer clear of the handsome lotharios.
