Men prefer curvier women

Lots of modern women are obsessed with weight loss problem though this problem might not even be related to them. Normal-weight ladies look at skinny models and thin celebrities as ideal women and think they should strive to have similar forms.

But despite all those glamourous standards of beauty men tend to prefer curvier women. It means women like Jennifer Lopez or Scarlet Johansson are considered more beautiful than those like Paris Hilton or Victoria Beckham. So, curvier shapes are preferred to angular ones.

These facts are the results of a study conducted at St Andrews University. The research involved a group of male students. The men were asked to rate photographs of female faces for attractiveness. And the women in the ‘normal’ weight range were rated as better looking than the skinny ones.

Researcher Professor David Perrett said:

This sends out a strong message to all the girls out there who believe you have to be underweight to be attractive. The people making judgments in our study were all between the ages of 18 and 26 and they did not rate the underweight girls most attractive. They preferred normal-weight girls.’

Overweight women were also rated as being less attractive.

I like the results of the study. Maybe this will make millions of healthy women believe they don’t need to lose weight and torment their organisms.
