Some men like fat women

Try describing your perfect woman. Does she have blond hair, dark skin? Beautiful, tall? Thin or fat?

For some small parts in the world of men that the scientific community calls 'fat women admirers', overweight women are ideal. According to a recent study published in The Journal of Sex Research, not only do the above-mentioned men prefer fat women, but they also prefer certain body sizes than those of other men.

The study suggested that 2 groups of men evaluate black-and-white photos of 10 female body forms. Both groups have to show which body shape they like best, and which form of body they find attractive among the slimmest and fattest pictures.

People who are more likely to like fat women feel attracted to pictures of women with a body index of 29.24. Body mass index BMI is calculated by taking the weight in kilograms divided by square height. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, body mass indexes between 25 and 29.9 are considered overweight, while those with a body mass index of 30 or more are obese. For example, a woman with a height of 5'6 '' weighs 155 pounds is overweight, and if she weighs 190 pounds, is obese.

In addition, the study found that people who like fat women have a certain amount of body index that they consider to be attractive, including those with a woman with less than 15 indicators. .

Psychological professor Virg Swami of Westminster University, UK and principal researcher, said that these findings have raised criticisms of social and cultural norms about attractiveness.

Swami said: 'Most admirers of fat women understand that their ideal beauty is not mainstream, but I do not think it is rebellious. They consider their interests to be normal, but only orthodox society does not accept those views. '

While the mainstream group supports common interests, they argue that the body with a 18.45 index - supposedly a little underweight - is the most attractive. They also evaluated images of women who were overweight or overweight in a more negative way.

Do people who are interested in fat women worry about health problems related to weight? 'For some people, health is not an important issue.' Swami said. 'They participate more strongly in the movement to accept fat women, and try to redefine a healthy phrase'. Obese or healthy? For these men, fat women always have the opportunity.
