A new study has pointed out that the anaconda may not be the regular general guy. In that, it says that men actually prefer tall, thin girls with a physique like Taylor Swift than Kim Kardashian body-types.

Over 60,000 people volunteered for the study to give their opinions on the female form:

Over 80 percent of men and 20 percent of women rated nearly 1,00 0different female body types.

The results found that both men and women preferred a thin girl with long legs like Taylor Swift, and not someone with a Kim Kardashian body-type.

Those legs!

The findings by researchers at the University of New South Wales in Sydney discovered that the ideal woman was taller in height and longer in leg rather than having a busty chest and big bum.

Here's how they did the study:

They created computerized images of different female body shapes based on 24 basic factors from bust and bottom size to length of legs and waist circumference.

A first ‘generation’ of 120 of these were rated by volunteers from all over the world responding to a social media campaign asking for help.

The 60 body shapes with the lowest ratings were eliminated. Each of the remaining 60 were then taken and a slight variation of each was added to create another 120 shapes.

Again, they were rated by volunteers and the bottom 60 eliminated and the process was repeated for eight ‘generations’ – a total of 960 different shapes and sizes of female body.

What the researchers found was that in every generation, the 60 lowest rated body shapes were generally the fattest, shortest and roundest of the computerized figures.

By the end of the eighth generation, the highest rated female form was tall with a small waist and long, slender legs, a smaller bottom and smaller bust said the researchers.

What do you think? Do you agree with this?
