What the sexiest woman alive today looks like, according to science
A new survey which claims to have nailed down what the sexiest woman alive looks like has come up with a clear list of criteria.
Obviously, you shouldn't judge yourself against some ideal standard of beauty or feel like you're not measuring up against the supposed ideals of the day.
Attempts to use science to see which person has the most perfect face have essentially demonstrated that while some famous people look very attractive, not even they can get a perfect score on what people are meant to find most appealing to look at.
As for this latest survey, PlayersTime studied the Maxim's Sexiest Women lists from 2016 through to 2025 in an effort to get information on all of the traits considered to be statistically most attractive.

According to them, the sexiest woman alive statistically has brown eyes, long brown hair, and a heart shaped face.
Apparently she is 'dark featured', stands at 172cm tall, and most likely has some sort of tattoo somewhere on her body.
Their research of the 'sexiest woman' lists suggests she will be slim and most likely not have had cosmetic surgery.
Unfortunately, for any of you wondering if someone who fits this description could end up in your life, she's likely also married, as a majority of the people who'd made it onto Maxim's lists and thus got judged by the survey had tied the knot.
The likes of Dua Lipa, Hailey Bieber, Emily Ratajkowski and Shay Mitchell apparently come quite close to this list of criteria, though as with other attempts to find a scientific answer to the most attractive person, there isn't anyone who gets it spot on.
And who would want that anyway, if everyone was trying to look the same the world would be some measure more boring.
PlayersTime said: "By tracing the women featured in Maxim’s Hot 100 from 2016 to 2025, we see a fascinating tapestry of contemporary allure unfold.
"Names may change, trends may shift, but certain qualities remain magnetic: statuesque elegance, flowing hair that catches the light, a confident presence, and that elusive mix of youthfulness and sophistication.
"It makes one wonder: is sexiness simply a reflection of physical traits, or is it the energy, poise, and charisma a woman carries that truly captivates?
"Across nearly a decade of Hot 100s, one thing is clear: while tastes evolve, the most memorable women exude a combination of beauty, confidence, and undeniable presence that keeps culture watching, talking, and endlessly intrigued."
They also surveyed the qualities people most like in men, as based on the Sexiest Man Alive lists from People between 2017 and 2025, with this year's winner being Jonathan Bailey, who is apparently very close to the scientific profile PlayersTime put together.
He is apparently no shorter than 183cm, with brown hair and brown eyes accompanied by a neatly trimmed beard and an athletic body, and he has also probably got some tattoos.
