An average guy will always say he loves his women slim and curvy, ever wondered why that body appeals to them a lot?

According to reports, an 'evolutionary fitness model' which was created by scientists from the University of Aberdeen in Britain, predicted women with a body mass index (BMI) of between 24 and 24.8 as are seen as most physically attractive and healthy by men.

The predictions were then tested on more than 1,300 people, both males and females some from Britain while other participants were from nine other countries.

After being shown several image cards which had women with different levels of body fatness, the participants were asked to rearrange them from least to most attractive.

It was gathered that the thinnest images with BMI's of about 19 were seen as most attractive.

The age factor picked by participants were between 17 and 20, this was consistent across the countries picked for the experiment

This indicated that men find slimness in females as attractive because it is constantly being equated to youthfulness.
