All right ladies, I have found your answer to the best place to find a man....
A Restaurant
Why?
According to this article: Scotsman.com News - Weird, odd and quirky stories - Hungry men find big women sweet (http://news.scotsman.com/topics.cfm?tid=609&id=1095122006)
Men who have skipped lunch find larger women more attractive than their slimmer counterparts, new research has revealed.
A team of psychologists established that men who are hungry are attracted to plumper women, but the researchers found that, once they had eaten, men's taste in women reverted to those with slimmer figures.
The academics suggest the phenomenon arises from primeval associations between larger body sizes and health and survival.
The latest study in the British Journal of Psychology suggests that although modern western cultures are dominated by images of skinny models, men still have an evolutionary preference for more rounded women.
The results indicated that this preference can still be triggered by pangs of hunger. Viren Swami, a psychologist at Liverpool University's Department of Public Health, said: "Hungry men are much more tolerant and rate obese women more positively than men who have eaten.
"They found them slightly more attractive, although the difference was very small between them and women in the normal weight range."
Mr Swami and psychologist Martin Tovee, from Newcastle University, recruited 60 university students to test their theory that appetite is linked to sexual preference.
Half had just enjoyed a meal and described themselves as very full, while the rest had yet to eat and were either hungry or very hungry.
The test subjects had to look at pictures portraying women of different shapes and sizes and rate them on an ascending scale of beauty from one to nine.
None of the images showed the women's faces to ensure that they were judged on body shape alone.
Mr Swami said: "In evolutionary terms, if you are overweight it means you have more resources.
"Even today, in some parts of Africa, women are force-fed milk to make them fatter and more attractive."
***I guess if you are on the larger side, you get them going in. If you are smaller, then wait until after dinner. If you are medium size, you want to introduce yourself between the salad and main course?
