What do Kate Winslet, Venus Williams, and Jodie Kidd all have in common? They all have a BMI of around 21. Elizabeth Hurley sits at around 16.
According to research carried out at Newcastle University – there is a “perfect” BMI for a woman. Perfect – as in the most attractive to men.
In Britain, the most attractive BMI was found to be 20.85. In Malaysia the figure was marginally higher. The results also showed that attractiveness dropped quickly either side of the 20.85 figure.
Previously, waist-to-hip ratio was thought of as the attraction factor – but these researchers conclude that “BMI is even more critical, accounting for 75 per cent of body attractiveness.” What’s more being over this figure is “more attractive” than being under.
So while an obese woman was only half as attractive as a woman with the perfect BMI, skinnier women were rated even lower.
So much for skinny celebrities being the “measure” of an attractive ideal.
A girl that eats is the most attractive. What makes women attractive is their confidence. Try reading Sexy Women Eat. It will honestly change the way you think about food and your lifestyle. It did for me.
