> Men tend to prefer shorter women, aesthetically. Is there evidence to support this? Short women have numerical and biological advantages (e.g., earlier puberty) wrt to pairing and reproduction; but aesthetic preferences seem tied to ratios—waist-hip, leg-torso—that can hold for samples tall or short. Heels seem like a means for adjusting the observed leg-torso ratio of a sample to mask suboptimal genetic inputs and environmental effects; i.e., heels make legs look longer in proportion to overall body height.
