Evolutionary Reasons for Male Preferences Regarding the Female Breast Shape
P lastic surgeons have considered a certain type of breast as ideal for many years. However, there is little discussion in the plastic surgery literature regarding why this specific type is aesthetically pleasant. Other fields, such as evolutionary biology, might have the answers to this question. Many studies have shown the importance of facial symmetry and waist-to-hip ratios to determine bea...
متن کاملFemale mate preferences for male body size and shape promote sexual isolation in threespine sticklebacks
Female mate preferences for ecologically relevant traits may enhance natural selection, leading to rapid divergence. They may also forge a link between mate choice within species and sexual isolation between species. Here, we examine female mate preference for two ecologically important traits: body size and body shape. We measured female preferences within and between species of benthic, limne...
متن کاملMale swords and female preferences.
ent sword as a control. Because swordlessness is the ancestral state of the Xiphophorus clade, Basolo argues that the results of her experiment indicate that female preference for swords predates the evolution of the sword and concludes that coevolutionary models of sexual selection are inadequate. Basolo provides no direct evidence in support of a preexisting female sensory bias, but rejects t...

متن کاملBody Shape Preferences: Associations with Rater Body Shape and Sociosexuality
There is accumulating evidence of condition-dependent mate choice in many species, that is, individual preferences varying in strength according to the condition of the chooser. In humans, for example, people with more attractive faces/bodies, and who are higher in sociosexuality, exhibit stronger preferences for attractive traits in opposite-sex faces/bodies. However, previous studies have ten...
