A study by psychologists at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology found that the most effective flirting techniques depend on gender and the type of relationship sought. For women seeking short-term flings, cues highlighting sexual availability, such as body contact, were most effective, while men were judged more effective if they combined physical and sexual tactics with smiling, showing interest in conversations, giving compliments, and making the woman laugh. For men seeking longer-term relationships, signs of generosity and a willingness to commit were found to work best. Additionally, humor was universally effective for men seeking long-term relationships, but least effective for women seeking one-night stands.
