It`s
a question that has baffled women for ages. What do men
consider beautiful in women? Most of us believe men only
see looks as beautiful simply because the media believes
it is true. They show us busty females with perfect bodies
plastered across our television screens, billboards, and
posters, or skinny little models posing in barely there
undergarments and designer clothing and we automatically
think; "The woman of every man`s dreams". But ask any guy
and you may very well be surprised to learn those perfect
bodies and skinny models are far from his dream girl.
Recently, an online survey discovered that men preferred
women with an average size body and curves to those whose
bodies bared more bone than fat; like the models we see on
the runways.
However,
even while an average size body did turn their heads, it
was actually a woman`s personality that men considered
beautiful the most. They also think that a woman with self-confidence
is beautiful. Kind, caring and sincere were three other
attributes that were also considered beautiful in a woman
as well as a woman who is willing to listen to him and
engage in conversation with him.
And
what did they find beautiful as far as looks? When it
comes to physical attributes, the eyes have it. Men also
confessed that women with natural average-sized breasts
were more beautiful than women with breast implants. And
when it comes to women`s fashion they think we look
beautiful in casual clothing verses neat. And what
underwear did they find beautiful on a woman? Surprisingly,
average and feminine beat out the skimpy erotic panties
found on models in adult magazines. Even more surprising,
the surveys found that men thought women with a barely
there, natural makeup looked more beautiful than women who
wear a lot of makeup.
So what
gives? Apparently guys are finding out that there`s more
than meets the eye when it comes to a woman being
beautiful. Men would rather get to know a woman and
discover that she is beautiful naturally instead of just
judging her from the way she looks and finding out that
she`s really an ugly person on the inside. They’re
discovering what we’ve known all along, that true beauty
lies within.
And
what about all of the wonderful mothers and grandmothers
out there? Well smile, because while they might not admit
it, a survey found that the men in your life secretly
think you’re beautiful too!
So does
this mean that we`ll be saying adios to those perfect and
skinny bodies in the media too? Probably not, since the
media knows that there`s still a whole new generation of
young men who are willing to believe that age-old tactic
of "Sex sells". Still, we have begun to notice that more
and more average and curvy size women are making their
presence known in
Hollywood and
we’re loving it!
