"   There&amp;#039;s something to be said about a macho man. His strong jawline, chiseled abs, beefy arms, and deep voice make some women go weak in the knees. But according to a new study, women actually prefer thin dudes. I should know. I&amp;#039;m one of them. Aaah... This explains my obsession with Andrew Garfield. You know, aside from his super sweet PDA style. Thin guys are definitely my fave. But I don&amp;#039;t want him to be too thin. I prefer a lean and slim dude. Think: Body type more like a soccer star than star quarterback. Not that footballers aren&amp;#039;t just as hot. Um, have you seen those sexy NFL butts?! That said, it&amp;#039;s good to have scientific validation for my type. In the study, scientists gathered guys and took photos of them. They then measured their body fat and testosterone levels. Sixty-five percent of the men were of a healthy weight, four percent were underweight, and 30 percent were underweight or obese. The researchers then had women look at pictures of the men, rating their attractiveness. In the end, more women found themselves drawn to guys who had lower levels of body fat and testosterone. You see, previous studies found that women are more attracted to hunkier guys who have higher levels of testosterone, and this study suggests otherwise. I have a thought. Maybe women just like guys that are, oh I don&amp;#039;t know, hot? Either way, I&amp;#039;ve never been into crazy-jacked guys and I&amp;#039;m glad to know that&amp;#039;s normal. What type of guys do you like? Want more from Dara? Follow her on Twitter @dadeeyo. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
