Are Women Getting More Beautiful?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the or-are-you-just-less-picky dept.

FelxH writes "Scientists have found that evolution is driving women to become ever more beautiful, while men remain as aesthetically unappealing as their caveman ancestors. The researchers have found beautiful women have more children than their plainer counterparts and that a higher proportion of those children are female. Those daughters, once adult, also tend to be attractive and so repeat the pattern." I just thought my standards were changing as I got older, but it turns out it's just science!

    Infants will spend more time looking at pictures of symmetrical models than they will looking at pictures of less symmetrical models.

    That is biology, not culture.

    Life isn't fair, so deal with it.

    If you want to find beautiful girls go to Hungary, Czech, Slovakia and Slovenia. Sure you might find some beauty elsewhere, but here it's hard to spot an ugly one.

    As for US & UK, you are wasting your time, most of them are unhealthy fat.
