Do you agree with the hypothesis of this study into how women's waist-to-hip ratios affect their preference for masculine male faces?
Although the sample size was small, my own anecdotal evidence seems to suggest this to have merit; I have broad shoulders, a strong jaw, and pronounced cheek bones, and women whom show interest in me IRL have always had low waist-to-hip ratios.
Although, I also have a low waist-to-hip ratio of 0.82 (28w, 32h). So, if they could somehow perceive this, it may be a "birds-of-a-feather-flock-together" dynamic. What do you think?
Do you agree with the theories raised in the study?

I don't know if that’s true at all tbh
That's fair. It did have some theories I didn't like the sound of, such as, the perception that masculine features suggest lack of commitment and less interest in parenting - but they may have data on that perception.
In my own experience, as recent as yesterday, the only women who showed interest in me had broad hips; so Im trending to believe at least that theory has merit.
This study was conducted on women not on the pill, since the low estrogen state it puts them in makes them seek unmasculine faces; however, since women with broad hips typically have higher base estrogen levels, the pill may have slightly less of an affect on this.
