Contrast couples, where partners differ significantly in appearance, intrigue psychologists for challenging homogamy—the tendency to choose similar partners. Attraction to differences may stem from compensatory desires, like a tall person admiring a shorter partner’s agility or a shorter person appreciating a tall partner’s sense of security. Weight differences might reflect balancing insecurities or defying societal norms. These dynamics highlight the complexity of attraction, rooted in emotional and psychological needs beyond physical traits.
CONTRAST couples!
