Choosing a partner is not that easy, there are lots of thing to be considered base on our attitudes andĀ principles, as well as the things that we see, hear, feel, experience, etc. And since the organization wanted toĀ find out U.P Diliman studentās perception of love, the level of their preferences in choosing a partner wasĀ considered and based on the survey results;
Respondents found good moral character (2.92), good pleasing personality (2.88) and intelligenceĀ (2.84) as most important in choosing a partner. They also found that gender (2.81) and the makingĀ of a good spouse (2.77) were important. On the other hand study shows that they neither find nationality (2.15),Ā being in U.P (2.05), and skin color (1.99) as important and they do not consider political views (1.98) and raceĀ (1.97) as important in choosing a partner.
The findings suggest that UP students prefer someone of good moral character and personality andĀ they do not see race and skin color as important in choosing a partner. Also, the fact that U.P is a non-catholicĀ democratic school clearly shows that the U.P Diliman students respect each otherās belief and principleĀ regarding different issues especially when it comes to political. Thus, students donāt give much attention onĀ these matters when it comes to partner preference. On the other hand, itās not surprising why U.P studentās,Ā which is known for being intellectual and accountable, considers intelligence as one of the most importantĀ thing in choosing a partner. On the contrary to these, while intelligence is being considered as important,Ā based on the results, (see table 3) ātaga-U.P,ā is not given much attention in choosing their preferences whichĀ shows that U.P students Is not biased when it comes to their partner preference.
