Study: Stressed out men prefer heavy women

A recent study published in the scientific journal PLoS One found that environmental factors can alter some men’s perception of female attractiveness. And on Friday, that study became the subject of an alarming Fox News segment featuring British business reporter Stuart Varney chatting up a sex therapist about what he called “fleshier women.”
In real terms, the study’s findings are limited in value due to the sample groups being comprised of just 81 white, male British college students. Researchers subjected just the experimental group to a mock job interview to stress them out, then asked both the experimental and control groups to rate photos of women. Their result: White college kids who were most stressed out over their fake job interview tended to find heavier women more attractive. Do you agree to this?
