In assessing attractiveness, females judge men and women with higher BMI as less attractive, a new research study concludes. Additionally, men do not judge a man with a higher weight negatively, but still see heavier women as less attractive. This is the first study of its kind to assess the relationship between gender, BMI and notion of ‘attractiveness’, providing insight into associated wage inequality.
