Women who like big men
Physical appearance and sexual attractiveness
Women are more bothered about their partner’s height, whilst men insert more emphasis on their partner’s weight
The YouGov Body Image Study asked Britons to describe both their own body types and what body types they are attracted to.
Our analyze finds that three in ten Britons (31%) regard their body to be ‘average’. A fifth (20%) say they are overweight, with another 6% describing their body as adj and 13% saying it’s chubby. One in seven (14%) say they are slim.

So, I believe that it is sexism and When it comes to attributes women tend to find attractive in men, tall dusky and handsome are almost always up there at the top of the list.
