What's better than a long-legged woman wrapping her legs around you?

A short-legged woman trying.

/veal, all night, etc.

Does it still matter if I am a sharp dressed man?

Who the hell is "ZZ tops"?

They would be wrong.

Elvis_Bogart: Who the hell is "ZZ tops"?

There are like 15 guys who make up ZZ Top. With the beards, it's easy to switch people out without anyone noticing. This way each one of them only has to hit the road once every four tours.

I'm calling bullshiat on this study.

 
orth [TotalFark] 2009-12-22 03:23:58 AM  
Why did the poll have 75% women? And what sized legs did they have?

Around here, the longest legs are on the spider-women with the saws.

No one seems to find them attractive.

"She got legs
She knows how to use them
She never begs
She knows how to choose them...."

Luvs me sum Legs.

Screw you submitter, there's nothing better than a leggy woman in a miniskirt.

Physical attractiveness can have a significant impact on a woman's life.

Ric, is that you?

 
Vertdang 2009-12-22 04:42:55 AM  
First I just want to say. BULLshiat.

Then I'd like to post a funny picture from the movie Hot Shots, but sadly I'm unable to find a screen grab of Ramada bent over at the filing cabinet.

/fark, make it so.

You know what science? We're usually cool, I mean, I seriously like some of the stuff you come up with, especially in genetics, some of those mutations are waaay cool.

But you just crossed the line! fark you science, them there be fighting words! We're settling this outside, NOW!

 
the_chief 2009-12-22 04:43:59 AM  
I have to say, I like big butts better than long legs.

 
Dialectic 2009-12-22 04:44:27 AM  
I like the butt. Yes, I like big butts and I cannot lie...like the song says. ;-)

 
mamoru [TotalFark] 2009-12-22 04:48:37 AM  
It's all about proportion. Long legs and short torso is just as unattractive as short legs and long torso.

 
pnkgtr 2009-12-22 04:49:40 AM  
Could it be because legs look better in person than in pictures? Seems like a flawed study.

 
DPXFP2 2009-12-22 04:52:42 AM  
I didn't read the article but I just wanted to pop in here and let you fellers know that ZZ Top RULES.

 
Half Witt 2009-12-22 04:53:58 AM  
Echoing the bullshiat.

FTFA:
But when researchers chose eight images and asked 705 women and 235 men to rate the attractiveness of each shape, five of the six focus groups rated women with longer legs less attractive.

so.... n=940 with only 8 "body type" photos in the study. 705 of the 940 judging women's legs were women. The article does not mention how the 235 men and 705 women compared in their leggy preferences.

yeah, okaaay...

 
Epsilon [TotalFark] 2009-12-22 04:57:35 AM  
On one hand, I feel bad for women that every farking trivial body attribute determines her attractiveness. Legs, boobs, butt, torso, feet, nose, lips, eyes, hair, shoulders, etc., etc.

On the other hand, I feel jealous that women have absolutely zero problem getting laid, no matter what you look like. Men have to actually work to get sex, women only need to act like they're willing and the men will flock to them.

It's a strange world.

 
ElPresidente [TotalFark] 2009-12-22 04:57:55 AM  
Discovered by scientists who couldn't get laid in a brothel with $100 bills hanging out of their pockets, that is.

As a man who's had the pleasure of both long-legged and short-legged ladies in all their glory, I say to these scientists - thanks for all the sex you'll never have, Poindexters. Keep at it and let the rest of us have our fun.

 
pecosdave [TotalFark] 2009-12-22 05:00:50 AM  
I saw this chick walking around at the outlet center near Baton Rouge, her legs were incredibly long, it was like they ended where her belly button should have been, and she wasn't any taller for it, just these really long legs and no torso. Seriously, the Y was at elbow level and her wrist were just above her knees. I didn't get to close, she was just freaky. I don't know how she bought pants but she was something straight out of Dr. Seuss.

Came for leggy women pics, leaving unstatisfied. So here's one for the leg lovers:

I don't know subby. I think science got it wrong this time. ZZ Top makes them sound pretty good. Legs Video (new window)

 
Veritas 2009-12-22 05:06:17 AM  
I'm more of an arse man than a legs man. But, that being said, I still like a sexy pair of legs. And a nice pair of boobs.

Guess you could say I'm an equal opportunity perv.

/I even like sharp knees

 
bamf75 2009-12-22 05:08:09 AM  
she's got legs...she knows how to use them???

I've always hated that line...so what, the biatch can walk, good for her.

 
Ablejack [TotalFark] 2009-12-22 05:08:54 AM  
I find the most erotic part of a woman is the boobies.

 
seancakes 2009-12-22 05:09:51 AM  
Anybody call bullshiat on the study yet?

I mean hell, I've dated women taller than me, and I'm 6 feet tall. Long legs were definitely a benefit.

/love long legs
//would date taller girls again
///profit (from man-whoring?)

Scientists discover that women with long legs aren't sexy?

Maybe all that global warming stuff is bullshiat after all...

 
ambercat 2009-12-22 05:14:56 AM  
These scientists obviously aren't that clued in to the inner workings of the female mind.

The correct finding here is that a significant number of other women don't like women who have long legs, because they are jealous. You probably would have got the same results if you let a bunch of women rate the attractiveness of extremely large, full breasts.

/not counting fakes, that's just cheating
//plus they can be kinda nasty in a bolt-on Frankenstein way

bamf75: she's got legs...she knows how to use them???

I think what the line means is that the woman in question is able to accentuate her attractiveness using her legs.

 
ButteryDamage 2009-12-22 05:16:05 AM  
Screw you scientists. Her legs go all the way up:



\Hot like her legs, she knows how to use them.

Ablejack: I find the most erotic part of a woman is the boobies.

Say as many of them as you can as fast as you can. Don't stop for any reason.

 
texdent [TotalFark] 2009-12-22 05:17:41 AM  
I'm disappointed that so far only one pic has been posted.

 
ButteryDamage 2009-12-22 05:17:48 AM  
Disregard that, I suck. Here's the picture:

THIS

So.. 705 women, on average, find that women with average sized legs are the sexiest. You're kidding me.

I remember that fark thread, Palooka_Joe. Everyone was arguing whether it was a post-op tranny or not, then someone recommended watching the video and it became embarrassingly obvious that it was at one time male. Photoshop was used extensively in that photo-shoot to make her/him appear more feminine; the video didn't receive quite so much (any) post production work as the photos.

Judge for yourself though: Link (new window)

Ughhh. Stop posting all these scientifically unattractive women, CruiserTwelve. Didn't you RTFA!

She still wants a pearl necklace. Doesn't matter if she's riding in my new Cadillac while smoking Lucky Strikes...

Nice legs are more important than long legs.
