Women's body image

Women's body image.
When it comes to how satisfied they are with their own bodies, notions women hold of what men countenance for in females may be key, a green enquiry suggests. Researchers at Southern Methodist University in Dallas found that women are happier with their worth if they feel that men prefer full-bodied women instead of those who are model-thin here i found it. "Women who are led to put faith that men prefer women with bodies larger than the models depicted in the media may sophistication higher levels of self-centredness and lower levels of depression," lead researcher Andrea Meltzer, a group psychologist at Southern Methodist, said in a university telecast release.

The study included almost 450 women, the seniority of whom were white, who were shown images of women who were either ultra-thin or larger-bodied. Some women were also told by the researchers that men who had viewed the pictures had tended to fancy the thinner women, while others were told that men had preferred the larger women. Both groups of women then completed a questionnaire meant to assess how they felt about their weight.
