Who has a better body - Kim Kardashian or Taylor Swift?
Science has recently proved that most men and women alike would choose Swift's body over Kardashian's.
A team of researchers from the University of New South Wales in Sydney asked nearly 60,000 volunteers to rate nearly 1,000 different variations of the female body on attractiveness, reported Mail Online. About 80 percent of the volunteers were men.
The study showed that most people prefer a tall and slender woman over a curvy, hourglass shape, reported Mail Online.
The researchers "removed those physiques that appeared most overweight, and throughout the experiment we found evidence for strong directional selection on the waist, which was accompanied by lengthening of the legs and a reduction in seat girth, resulting in taller and more slender physiques," reported Mail Online.
Despite this result, the study also proved that attractiveness is a matter of opinion. For example, the study showed that athletically built men were attracted to a woman who also had an athletic build, reported Mail Online.
The study was published in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior.
