---- | |||
Karremans, Frankenhuis, and Arons (2009) conducted a study comparing the preference for a lower waist-hip ratio, a trait argued to be near universally desired by men cross culturally, between a sample of congenitally blind men (n=19) and (n=38) sighted men; half of whom were blindfolded. | |||
These men were invited into a mobile van which doubled as a laboratory and asked to rate the bodily attractiveness of "two mannequins with an adjustable waist and hips" (the researchers) adjusted the waist and hip circumferences such that the mannequins differed in WHR: one 0.70, and the other 0.8. A ratio of 0.7 has been generally portrayed as ideal in such studies, but the researchers noted that this assumption is based on studies where 0.7 was the lowest WHR examined, and that an even lower ratio may be even more desirable. | |||
The researchers findings were: | |||
* "The study demonstrates that congenitally blind men, like their sighted counterparts, prefer a low female WHR." | |||
* Although both sighted and blind men preferred the lower WHR, the effect was stronger for sighted men who visually inspected the bodies | |||
* This implies while there is an innate, instinctual preference among men for a lower WHR, this preference can also be strengthened by visual input. | |||
