The perfect male/female body, otherwise known as the lowest common denominator of beauty. BORING!
A lot of people are saying the pictures look horrifying and disgusting, but I don't really think they look THAT bad, just really fake and photoshoppy. But what were you expecting? This isn't Michelangelo, it's an image compiled by a computer from an assortment of different photos, it's GOING to look fake and weird. I'm almost surprised they look human at all.
Also, I have to wonder how this survey took things into account. Certain attributes may seem ideal separately, but not work when applied to the same body. Jennifer Aniston's hair might look good on Jennifer Anniston but that doesn't mean it looks good on any person you put it on. This seems like a case of the whole being less than the sum of it's parts.

Uhhh thats the perfect woman and perfect man according to people?
all 4 of em just creep me out...
What a waste of time and resources...
Also why all white?
I mean I hate it when people use racism as a dumb excuse to dodge a legitimate problem, but this time I do think their is some undertone at play here...
It seems the media is (though they will never say it) completely against interracial relationships... (in alot of media you never see interracial relationships)
and to me thats just disgusting...
why should it matter?
*shudder* creeps me out how people have this idea that men and women should look exactly like the media tell us they should look like...

I'm pretty sure if you did the same survey in Kenya you'd get black people as the perfect people, or if you did it in China you'd get Asians as the perfect people. Don't bring racial issues into somewhere there aren't any.thewatergamer said:

This is the internet. There are people from Kenya, China, Germany, Singapore, whatever on the internet. Don't ignore racial issues when they mildly annoy you.
No, this is the English language website of a UK retailer. Do you really think Kenyans, Chinese people, Germans are going on the website of a UK Lingerie retailer? It'd be like Australians going on Amazon.com. There are bigger racial issues to tackle, getting angry over a tabloid-level survey on a lingerie website is not one of them.GameChanger said:
Also:
It's important to note that the men and women surveyed were from the UK, that means there's a high possibility that women and men from other parts of the world will have their own version of what the perfect body should look like for each gender. Also, don't forget, that "perfect" and "beauty" are almost always in the eyes of the beholder, so there's no one right answer.
