"However, Boguslaw Pawlowski and Piotr Sorokowski at the University of Wroclaw in Poland wanted to investigate whether relative leg lengths affected such perceptions."

Reads further...

"They asked volunteers to rate attractiveness of images with leg lengths that varied 5, 10 and 15 per cent from the Polish national norm.

"the viewers preferred legs that were 5 per cent longer than average Next best were normal-length legs, or ones that were 10 per cent longer"

So, very slightly longer is very good, normal is good, quite long is not good and very long is very bad.

Effectively, the complete opposite of the headline which should have read:

"People don't like freaks"

Bloody journalists.
