This BBC article seemed like it would add something interesting to this thread...
even though there are no pics, lol...


Stressed men drawn to heavy women

When placed under stressful situations, men rate larger women as more attractive, new research has shown.

British researchers found that men exposed to tasks that were designed to put them under pressure preferred a wider range of female body sizes.

They conclude that stress can act to alter judgments of potential partners.

The work by a team from London and Newcastle is published in the open access journal Plos One.

"There's a lot of literature suggesting that our BMI (body mass index) preferences are hard-wired, but that's probably not true," co-author Dr Martin Tovee, from Newcastle University, told BBC News.

“Changing the media, changing your lifestyle, all these things can change what you think is the ideal body size”

Dr Tovee and his colleague, Dr Viren Swami, have previously researched what factors could alter BMI preferences, including publishing a paper in the British Journal of Psychology on the effect of hunger, and the influence of the media.

But through this new work they aimed to investigate whether known cross-cultural differences in body size preferences linked to stress were also mirrored in short-term stressful situations.

"If you look at environments where food is scarce, people's preferences for body size in a potential partner are shifted. [The preference] appears to be much heavier compared to environments where there's plenty of food and a much more relaxed atmosphere," he explained.

"If you're living a far more stressful, subsistence lifestyle, you're going to have higher stress levels."

To simulate heightened stress, a test group of men were placed in interview and public speaking scenarios and their BMI preferences compared against a control group of non-stressed men.

The results indicated that the change in "environmental conditions" led to a shift of weight preference towards heavier women with the men considering a wider range of body sizes attractive.
Flexible preferences

"These changes are comparatively minor in comparison to those you get between different [cross-cultural] environments. But they suggest certain factors which might combine with others and cause this shift," Dr Tovee said.

The research supports other work that has shown perceptions of physical attractiveness alter with levels of economic and physiological stress linked to lifestyle.

"If you follow people moving from low-resource areas to higher resource-areas, you find their preferences shift over the course of about 18 months. In evolutionary psychology terms, you try to fit your preferences to what works best in a particular environment," said Dr Tovee.

Moreover, the researchers were keen to emphasise how fluctuating environmental conditions could alter the popular perception of an "ideal" body size.

"There's a continual pushing down of the ideal, but this preference is flexible. Changing the media, changing your lifestyle, all these things can change what you think is the ideal body size," he said.

A Scientific American article I read not too long ago also made me think of this topic. It revolved around studies that show that a woman's body, as seen by men and women, tend to be seen in constituent parts, while men and women tend to see a man's body more as a whole. http://www.scientificamerican.com/artic ... n-as-parts

However, it isn't deeply rooted in the brain, and can be pretty easily 'swept' away with a simple cognitive task.

Because as long as her tits aren't showing, jailbait ain't nothing but another bird to "fap" to

[Ace Rimmer]

please define "jailbait". In my state and many others, 16 is legal.

well then you're good to go. but i think jailbait can refer to anyone under the legal age of consent being used as a sex symbol, so it would vary everywhere

[Gillipig]

In Tunisia the age of consent is 20. So 18 is considered under age there. What is under age in one country isn't in another and so on. I think age of consent as a concept is very messy and doesn't make much sense.

So you agree with these general guidelines:

"Old enough to bleed, old enough to breed"

and

"If there's grass on the field, play ball"

?

haha, old enough to bleed can be very young in some cases. I don't think that would be an appropriate guideline. Although from an evolutionary point of view, when you reach puberty you're ready to mate.

Sorry guys she's not jailbait. Not in usa anyway as she's recently turned 18. She is a slut though =( I thought she was the one

Now, are they old photographs, or modern pictures done in a retro style? I'm guessing the latter.

Yes, very cool. Surreal actually.....and sexy. Thank you.

Is the picture from before or after she turned 18 though... you can't just take pics of little kids and then start posting them in NAMBLA forums when they turn 18, for example.

Well, that gives new meaning to that old Jazz standard "A night in Tunisia."

Really hard to find a photo of Lexi Belle with clothes on but she is smoking hot

That's a bit of a stretch don't you think. I post a pic of a girl that looks barely underage and you compare it to nambla?? f*ck off sir

I'm not comparing your picture to anything related to NAMBLA. I was merely pointing out that just because someone is 18, it doesn't mean that a picture of them from when they were under 18 is appropriate fap fodder.

Anyways, I already jizzed on a printout of your ex, if that's what you really wanted us to do to make you feel better.

yes, 21st century photographs to emulate the classic pinup era...

interesting to note however, that the classic pinups were done using models, but of course there were artistic liberties taken... i have a fair number of original pinups, and in some cases i have the photo of them with the artist and the model... cool stuff...

i love classic pinups, sexy in a fun and innocent way...

[AndyDufresne]
