LOL! I'm remembering back to psychology too...
>Apparently, men are particularly attracted to women with a certain hip-waist ratio.
Yeah. Good child bearing hips ;-)
(and many child bearing years ahead of them hence trophy wives...)
>Women seem to think men prefer very slim women, whereas in fact men seem to prefer more rounded women.
There is a quote I read from somewhere... But I can't remember it so I'll just have to make it up... 'it is funny that what is pleasing on the eye can be so different from what we find pleasing to touch'
> women like men who are taller, older and richer. This seems to fit with the idea of women often being attracted to ‘authority figures’.
Yup. Status, wealth, power...
Its odd to look at is this way...
From this perspective...
But I agree that different people are different. There is a lot of personal idiosyncracy in the world (thank god).
