What does the perfect SA man look like?
A study has revealed what the ideal man looks like in different parts of the world.
The Study, called “Perceptions of Perfection Part II: Men”, focuses on male attractiveness – or what it is perceived to be - across the globe.
A picture of a man in underwear was sent to graphic designers in 19 different countries, who then had to photoshop the image to resemble what would be considered an attractive male in their countries.
Apparently, Mr. Right in South Africa has a perfect tan, an amazing six pack and huge calves.
The perfect man in Nigeria has hairy legs and is slightly chubby, while in Egypt he has facial hair and a bulging upper body.
The company that conducted the study, Superdrug Online Doctors, says men also have body image issues.
“Fuelled in part by the media and popular culture, men around the world may feel even more body image – related pressure than women do – pressure to be stronger or slimmer or more muscular. Our goal with this project is to fuel a revolution: to spark real change about body image, to empower people to prioritize health above appearance, and to promote body confidence around the world,” said on its website.
