BBC: Curvy women many be a better bet
This article is from 2007 but I only ran across it today.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7090300.stm

Tl;dr

The article argues that women with hour glass figures produce healthier more intelligent children. But the best quote comes from mangina researcher Martin Tovee:

"And much as we logically like the idea that men are interested in the waist to hip ratio, it actually features relatively low down the list of feature males look for in a potential partner."

To be fair in 2007 the meaning of "curvy" was closer to Kim Kardashian curvy then humpty-dumpty curvy.

You are correct. The image they used with the story was of a pre-fat Nigella Lawson. Whom I would bang into the next century, and then have make me a gourmet sandwich.

edit:

The study also found
Quote:Researchers studied 16,000 women and girls and found the more voluptuous performed better on cognitive tests - as did their children.

So, researchers discovered the fact that fatter and less attractive women have to develop and rely on their intelligence to survive moreso than their hot slut counterparts who can coast through life on 1 brain cell and plastic surgery. Of course, like the scientists they are they try to draw biological conclusions like Omega 3 fats vs. social conclusions such as the hotter you are, the easier it is to get a pussy pass and not have to develop cognitive skills.

.7 waist to hip ratio. Sometimes it's called the "discernible waist". Multiple studies bear this out.

A woman doesn't have that? She's put lower down on the physical attraction scale.

When curvy women and BBC are in the same sentence, British Broadcasting isn't the first thing to come to mind.


It's always the fat ones and the BBC...
