Men and women have different ideas about how it should look beautiful body - their own and the opposite sex. At the same time to impose his own stature all too exaggerated claims and overestimate the beauty of the individual pieces.
To understand this, scientists from Newcastle University conducted a study using a special 3D-interactive program. In addition, it was attended by 80 volunteers from among heterosexual women and men. All study participants were young, their average age was 19 years. In the study, they talked about how, in their opinion, should be a perfect body. Along the way, 3D-design program to create three-dimensional solid models, seemed the most beautiful volunteers and scientists have determined mass index of these bodies, as well as the volume of the individual parts - the chest, waist, thighs, biceps and so on.
How did they see the perfect body of men and women? As it turned out, women appreciate the female body, especially thinness - 39 out of 40 participants considered the most attractive body is whose body mass index was lower than their own. The most part of it is the best, in their opinion, is a large chest. But the ideal of the male body in the women's understanding - broad shoulders, well-developed chest and thin waist, that is a classic V-shaped torso.
As for the men, the ideal male body, in their opinion, the main thing - it's inflated inflated chest and legs. 20 out of 40 participants answered that it should be more slender than they. The woman's body by men appreciate, first of all, harmony (with a body mass index of about 19). However, the breast of a woman as the man said, does not necessarily have to be big.
Thus, scientists were convinced that women overestimate the beauty of large breasts, and men - beauty inflated feet. In fact, these factors in the eyes of the opposite sex did not possess the appeal, which he is credited. Experts explain such inconsistency influence on people's opinions about the ideal body of modern social factors. It is necessary to realize, first of all those who aspire to the ideals imposed by the fashion industry and advertising, according to an article published in the journal PLOS One.
