You're imagining the difference tbh, it's not that big. Maybe just because the middle is facing forwards or something.
 
They should have used multiple women to represent the three sizes, not just one for each size.
 
Because we're intelligent enough to get the point of the article and thus don't need to mention it?
 
Because the thread asks us which we prefer and implies that we should discuss why (or rather, a discussion/argument should spring up due in extreme part to people defending their choices and biases)? It doesn't say discuss the article really.
 
Okay, let's talk about it.

Well. I guess it makes sense that men want a woman who doesn't look like she'd break something having sex. A little fat = curves = good.
 
We all agree here that tanorexic chicks are not preferable to a real woman, but that doesn't mean that it's that way all over the world or the country. There are plenty of guys who like that sort of girl, the only thing that we can conclude from this thread is that most metalheads, or at least most people on this site (which I think is a good cross section of metalheads) prefer a real woman to a fake, manufactured tanorexic slut.
 
A good cross section?
You have to consider that people on the internet are more likely to be nerdy, desperate, out of shape, white, young, and into more extreme metal. Not necessarily the best sample.
However, so far we seem to match up with the results of the original survey pretty well.
 
"Frankly, the fact that this survey suggests that the mass dieting and near-anorexic trends that women go through these day is for naught"

it only suggests this because they chose a less attractive size 8. the fact that someone could make an assumption that the general poulation feels this way over 3 chics is ridiculous.
