How do you like your women?

Men in the U.S. like their women thin. How do you like yours?

A survey of 4,000 adults in the U.S. shows that men like thin women who pose provocatively, reports the Daily Mail. On the other hand, the women surveyed could not agree on what they found attractive.
“The study helps explain why women experience stronger norms than men to obtain or maintain certain physical characteristics,” said Dustin Wood, one of the authors of the report.
“Men agree a lot more about who they find attractive and unattractive than women agree about who they find attractive and unattractive.”
We could’ve told them that.
As mentioned, this study was conducted in the U.S., because if it were conducted elsewhere, like in Egypt and India, they’d find that women with heavy bottoms and significant breasts are idolized. And men in Lebanon like their women plucked and trimmed (and plastic). There are more generalizations, but we think we’ve insulted enough people as it is.

In my experience, Lebanese women very definitely believe that looking like a transsexual is attractive. I couldn’t comment on whether this view is shared by Lebanese men.
