  • Summary

  • Body proportions matter a surprising amount in the context of dating but much of it is only able to be understood in a realistic field study. In today's episode, we go over a unique speed-dating study with a large sample size to confirm that physical features such as shoulder-width ratio and waist-hip ratio matter in making someone appear more physically attractive and how this relates to appearances of social dominance contrasting with femininity (i.e. sexual dimorphism).
