It depends on whether the goal is for the relationship to be long-lasting. According to a study published recently in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior , men who pursue a temporary relationship look for women with an attractive body . However, those looking for a lasting relationship pay more attention to the face in 75% of the cases . According to the authors, the latter is because the face is the best indicator of a woman's fertility level.
On the other hand, a study carried out by William Brown, from Brunel University (United Kingdom), revealed that men are more attracted to women of short stature but with relatively long legs , while women prefer as a couple tall men with proportionally shorter legs and broad shoulders, like swimmer Michael Phelps.
