I think you should put up a poll on it,

So those of men that get turned on by women that are generally considered to be overweight shouldn’t be ashamed of your preferences, as it is absolutely natural. In this article we are describing the main reasons why men favor women that do not completely meet the modeling standards.

Waist to hip ratio

Waist-hip ration is defined by dividing the circumference of a waist by circumference of hips. This exact ration becomes a main determiner of woman’s attractiveness. For instance, in western countries the ratio that is equal to 7 is considered to be the most appealing among men. And it was found during the research that this ratio shows an optimal level of female reproductive hormones, and thus a lower likelihood of diseases. As for Asian countries, the ratio equal to 6 is the most attractive. Whereas in majority of African and Latin-American countries, the preferred ratio is 8. So, it comes out that women with a more curvaceous body make men salivate rather than skinny women, who are less likely to have a distinct difference between waist and hips.



More fat means fertility

Considering the fact that women bodies are intended for child bearing, which takes a long period of time, women should be the storers of natural fat. Back during ancient times when people lived in caves and it was hard to get enough subsistence, women that had fat on their bodies were more likely to carry a child. As for fetal nourishment, the energy from fat on woman’s hips is the one, which is converted into energy for fetal nourishment. Moreover, some scientists argue that the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids that are contained in hip fat are significant for fetal brain development. So, men get attracted by women with some meet on their bones because they receive some hidden signals from their brain. These signals inform that these women are more likely to give birth to a healthy child.



Normal BMI

Body mass index (BMI) is considered a stronger indicator of women’s attractiveness than waist-to-hip ratio. BMI is defined by dividing woman’s weight by height squared. Women whose BMI falls into a normal range are more eye-catching as it shows good overall health as well as reproductive potential. A normal BMI range lays between 18 and 25. Women whose BMI is close to 19 are more fertile than thin women because lower BMI is generally associated with poor health, eating disorders and bad fertility due to amenorrhea.



Men love breasts and bums

During the study that was published in Biological Sciences in 2004, it was found that bigger breasts are associated with higher levels of mid-cycle estradiol and progesterone, which means that during the ovulation period these women are more likely to conceive. So, chubby women with bigger breasts are more appealing to men, as skinny women are less likely to have big boobs, unless they have implants.



In fact approximate 50% of American women are overweight and the obesity becomes a number one issue in the world according to the World Health Organization. We don’t call women for gaining extra weight in order to become more attractive. No, men are more likely fall for women that take care of themselves and maintain healthy balance of muscle and fat. Healthy eating habits and an active lifestyle- main things that make women look fascinating.
