The Love Islanders have a new term for their ultimate, ideal man: the “Golden Retriever”.
In last night’s episode, Leah Taylor told new Casa Amor boy Lochan Nowacki that he had “Golden Retriever energy”, in reference to a TikTok trend about the ideal “Golden Retriever boyfriend”, which has over 65 million hashtags.
In the trend, men who are doting, sweet, loyal and innocently fun loving are described as sharing the characteristics of the dog - and while some see the traits as naive and gullible, the “Golden Retriever boyfriend” is considered to be a good catch, with desirable traits such as soft masculinity and sensitivity.
