In recent times, research has been done to see whether bodyweight could be a driver of attraction for the opposite sex. Manly features such as a strong jaw and squinty eyes are assumed to be more appealing probably because those body parts indicate that those who possess them can maintain strong immune systems. Also, according to research, women tend to respond to faces and bodies of men with strong immune responses.
Although quite a number of research have been done to know which body weight or type girls would prefer, there might still be no perfect answer to this as this will always remain at the person’s discretion.
While some girls prefer slim, tall others like them chubby and short
Women reportedly use body size to cue them in on how fit a man is. There are reports that prove that most women are attracted to men with muscle development and muscle definition. However, different studies have different views on this.
A study recently surfaced suggesting that girls prefer skinny men over macho or chubby men. The new trending study has shown that heterosexual women may be more attracted to men who are thin. This is contrary to the old belief that women like macho men because of their physique.
The new study also revealed that while women may respond more to faces and bodies of men with strong immune responses, they seem to cue into fatness and thinness and not manly features.
According to the study researcher, fatness is an obvious choice for a marker of immunity because of its strong association with health and immunity. Weight is also linked to both health and immune system functioning so both overweight and underweight are factors to consider. Some girls use weight rather than masculinity to judge a man’s immune system.
While there are women who go for the bodybuilder type of guy, the majority reportedly want a man with less muscle development/definition than that of the bodybuilders.
However, other reports show that skinny guys are the most ignored by girls. A researcher provided the following as benefits of dating a slim guy.
- This study states that girls with issues concerning their bodies will need to be with slim guys because the slim guy would make you feel bigger and control your weight. It says this can also help the girls control obesity because growing to fat will make the guy look too tiny to have you.
- According to this study, the guy will eat almost everything the woman prepares. Most skinny men are reportedly great eaters that don’t add weight no matter what they eat.
Are there women that prefer chubby guys?
On the other hand, different research suggests that some girls are more attracted to men who are chubby. This set of girls tend to believe chubby guys are funny and cute. Aside from that, some girls think fat guys are trustworthy and they have sexual stamina.
However, this overweight comes with a number of health risks like erectile dysfunction and heart disease.
Here are other scientific reasons why girls prefer chubby guys
It is believed that chubby guys are funnier
Research has shown that women are more attracted to men who can make them laugh. So it is usually assumed that chubby people are naturally funny although all chubby guys are not necessarily funny.
Chubby guys are assumed to be better in bed
It is believed that chubby guys can handle longer lovemaking which means they are better in bed. Reports also have it that men with noticeable bellies and higher BMIs last 7.3 minutes longer in bed than slimmer men.
Being with a chubby guy makes some girls feel secured
Aside from making their girls feel like royalty, a chubby guy could be the girl’s hero. This is because most girls love a big strong man who can at least break the neck of a creeper with just one hand
They give the best hugs and they are always warm
Chubby guys reportedly give the best hugs and are great to cuddle too. Also, a chubby guy is said to be always warm which makes some girls feel like babies once their arms.
