Monterrey, Mexico.- Studies reveal that men who live under stress, and are horny enough, think that women with a high level of corporal mass (IMSC) are very attractive.

Scientists studied 81 heterosexual white males, ranging in ages from 18 to 42. A group from one Social Stress Tier were asked to behave as if they were being interviewed for a job, while a second group was taken to a room where they would have to wait peacefully. Both groups were shown pictures of different types of women, ranging in different weights and body types. Overall, the stressed men preferred women average to overweight.

During the experiment, researchers showed the pictures and volunteers graded their appearance from 1 (unattractive) to 9 (very attractive). The second group of guys who were relaxed preferred women who were more fit and/or skinny.
