Are curvy women more superficial when it comes to men?

Posted on Apr 29th 2008 10:39AM by Chris Sparling

A recent issue of Men's Health suggests that guys who are consistently striking out at the bar may want to consider joining a running club.

This is because women with athletic builds tend to be less superficial than those with curvy figures, say researchers from Poland. Women were asked to complete a detailed survey, which revealed that the wider a woman's hips are relative to her waist, the greater the importance she placed on a man's physical appearance.

According to the study author, Dr. Boguslaw Pawloswki, "Curvier women have more estrogen and a greater material urge to find a partner who looks like he'll produce strong babies and provide for a family." However, since science is never an exact ... science, there is probably a great deal of variation when it comes to this supposed theme.
