Beauty or Bust

Well-Rounded Facts and Figures Revealed

Not as "full-figured" as you wish you were? It just doesn't matter as much as you might think to the guys.

Men notice a good figure, or legs, or face on a woman more readily than the size of her breasts, according to a major style and beauty survey conducted by No. 7 Cosmetics, a leading cosmetics line sold at Boots Chemists in Britain.

Survey Says:  23 per cent of women are convinced that men
measure beauty in cup sizes.

Survey Says:  Just 11 per cent of the males questioned say
a woman's bust is the first thing they notice.

Survey Says:  Body, legs and face all figure higher.

University of Warwick Psychologist Dr. Martin Skinner, an expert on self-presentation, believes the findings are linked to the emergence of the nineties 'Supermodels'.

"People just don't want large breasts these days," he says. "The big busty appearance no longer has a place in fashion."
