Abstract in brief

The study explores how Hispanic women of Mexican American descent perceive and are visually attracted to men with certain physical features, particularly upper body strength and dominance traits.
Women rated men with a lower waist-to-chest ratio (WCR of 0.7), indicating an android physique with more upper body fat, as more attractive, but hair distribution did not significantly influence attractiveness ratings.
Visual attention measurements showed that men with both facial and body hair were viewed longer, suggesting that physical cues of strength and dominance play a key role in visual attraction, regardless of conceptive risk.]
