Slim Waist Is Eternal Standard Of Feminine Beauty, Say Scientists.

Yup it's official. Looks do matter, and unfortunately for many a pretty lass, apparently the 'eternally' true standard of beauty requires her to have a slim waistline. Therein lies the problem. While in your teens a slim waistline can be taken for granted by most, as one grows older the years of indulging in favorite snacks, and one's predilection for being a couch potato rather than a 'gym animal' starts to show, rather embarrassingly at times.

At this stage there are basically three types of reactions. One is to do something about it, and thus the diet and exercise routine begins. The second is to fret and fume and alas do nothing positive while blaming everyone else but oneself. The third and by far the most 'popular' response is to make feeble attempts at controlling the burgeoning waistline and generally fighting a losing battle. Slowly and surely the second and third groups come to terms that a slim waist is not for them and they either ignore the subject or become secretly envious of those who are more attractively endowed.

With mental maturity comes the realization that there is more to life than merely looking very svelte and there are many people, men and women alike, who care precious little for slim waists as a criteria for admiring and appreciating true beauty. Having said that, there is one line in the report which states: "There was not a single evocation of beauty which said the object of veneration had a bulging tummy." That is definitely true and while we should not be obsessed with unattainable looks, we should at least take good and healthy care of what nature and our genetic code has given us.
