LADIES: A body like Jennifer Aniston OR a cool 1M $?

dayuum, guess i fall in the majority group with this. 😀

CBS) Women may say they'd do anything to have a figure like their favorite celebrity. But would they really?

An online poll conducted by Women's Day magazine and AOL Body asked women if they'd rather have Jennifer Aniston's physique or be a millionaire. Some 6,900 responded.

Only 22 percent said they'd prefer to look like Aniston, while 78 percent said they'd rather have the money.

Although every woman has her own answer to the question and reasons for it, some health care professionals are concerned about the survey's results.

"This survey maybe does suggest that women may be choosing health over wealth," observes clinical psyhcologist Rene Zweig. "Jennifer Aniston is seen as having the ideal body: She's toned, she's muscular, and she's not particularly underweight."

Zweig says she'd hope women would value being fit more than they do being rich.

"It's already an uphill battle for medical professionals to get people to a healthy weight; 65 percent of Americans are overweight. And if their values are not to be attractive and healthy, that would be concerning."

The survey also asked, "How do you feel about your body." Only 11 percent said great. Fifty-nine percent said OK, with some trouble spots, and 30 percent said they felt uncomfortable and ashamed.

"That really doesn't make very much sense," points out dietician Keri Glassman. "People are saying, 'I don't like the way I feel, I'm ashamed of my body, I'm uncomfortable, yet I'd rather have money than look great and be healthy.' "

Glassman says Americans should rethink what's important: "I think this survey absolutely points to the fact that our values are a little off."

But a lot of American women say they'd still prefer hard currency to hard abs.

"That just sounds like typical women," remarked one young woman on a Manhattan street. "We're very materialistic, so money comes first, especially if you can buy the body with the million dollars!"

Are they serious? Most of the women I know that look very good and are in perfect shape will still say the aren't proud of their body. You're never going to get a true answer.



On top of that, this "study" sucks ass because it doesn't seem to convey how many of the women already have a decent figure. It's like they are implying that they only asked a bunch of fat cows the question... how do they know they didn't get responses from 6900 women within 10 pounds of "ideal weight"?

... and how stupid could they be to not realize that with a million dollars you could easily hire a personal trainer and have plenty left to, among other things, buy a new wardrobe for your rockin' new bod?


Shity article if I've ever seen one.
 
maybe the women are smart

they know that the surgeries required to have a body like (or better than) jennifer aniston will cost a lot less than 1 million

which means they get the body AND have a bunch of money
 
Unless you are morbidly obese and need to buy two airplane tickets, I have no idea why someone would prefer a better figure over a million dollars. Hell, I am skinny as hell. If I had to choose between $10,000 and a body like Brad Pitt, I'd still go for the money.

that's because every woman knows what their flaw(s) are.

yup. a million pays for a lot of cosmetic surgeries. 😉
 
I'd rather that my wife had the $1M, unless she could have Jennifer's body at her current age now (25) in which she could probably make more then $1M.
 
Either the doctor or the editor needs an MRI.

should be wealth over health

11%, someone didnt watch the damn video eh?
 
the responses to question 2 of this poll are BS

and to add, Jennifer Aniston's bod is probably just above mediocre in hollywood these days because she is getting older... this is not to say I don't think she is hot or whatever any other asshat would critique this post with, but she has gotta be 10-12 years older than this generation's Hollywood hotties

I don't think this type of post will bring any accurate results on any forum on the internet. The responses you get most likely shouldn't be considered lies, but aren't accurate, not to mention MOST of the females replying to this pole probably aren't your target market/group.
 
since when was jennifer aniston known for her body? i'm pretty sure she's slid off the radar of relevance.
she's aging out of hotness rapidly... so for a body that is about to expire vs 1 mil? a rational chick would have to pick 1mil😛
