Abstract
The study’s objective was to find out whether there is a relationship between bodily fatness traits described with
anthropometric measurements and the assessment of the physical attractiveness of people with different degree of fat
deposition. Furthermore, an attempt was made to answer the question whether we perceive the physique of another
man as a whole or if we pay more attention to certain parts of the body and whether there is a stereotype of desirable
fat deposition.
