Not all naked pics are sexy though, right? [I Love Sexy Pics]
Let's face it; they're not. Some are, and some are not.
Well, one of the most prolific purveyors of pics on SW is my friend @Ambroseguy80. His habit of feeding SW's daily appetite for sexy guys & girls has driven his profile to over 60,000 views (and yes, I'm one of his near daily visitors).
But what makes a naked pic sexy? Everyone has a "type" and Amby certainly knows mine. In one recent comment thread, I remarked that he should just allow me to curate his posts because the ones I hearted seemed to get a higher number of hearts from the SW community at large.
Well, one thing led to another and the idea of proving that claim came to me. Okay, so here goes ... Do my fav pics rate higher? And what else correlates to higher rated pics?
My analysis went back through 55 posts from Amby and recorded many variables (male/female, tattoos, piercings, approximate boob size, "badonk" status of any butts shown, etc). Since he does not often post guys, they were dropped from my data (too low an occurrence yields statistically invalid data). Similarly, there were not enough instances of tats or piercings or body paint to analyze their influence so they were dropped as well.
So what was left? Fifty-five posts of naked or nearly naked women showing various attributes. :) On average, you all rated them up with 23 hearts with a range from 10 hearts on the low side to 46 on the high side:
Let's get to my initial claim first: That the pics I hearted were higher rated on average than the pics I didn't heart (and yes, I only used pics from before this discussion so as not to bias the results):
The pics I had previously hearted received on average 29.2 hearts. The ones I didn't heart, received only 15.5 hearts
Okay, so Amby should clearly run his posts by me for the 👍 or 👎 before wasting everyone's time! ;)
But what else drives hearts in the world of sexy pics? How about the presence of the woman's face? Clearly you must like to gaze longingly into our eyes, right? Nope. No impact whatsoever on the number of hearts. 🙄
How about the presence of boobs in the pic? Does that drive hearts? Again, nope. Pics with boobs averaged ~23 hearts; pics without boobs averaged ~24 hearts (insignificant diff). But wait ... what about size??
Wait! What??? You guys all actually prefer smaller boobs?? Amby: Take note! (Size rating purely arbitrary by me 😁)
Butt what about butts? Lol, yes, I've been waiting to say that! 😉 Does the presence of a naked butt in the pic drive hearts? Again, just as with boobs: Nope. You peeps don't care. Pics both with and without butts rate about the same number of hearts. Butt, what about the size of the butt? Does a Badonk-esque butt rate higher or lower than other butts?
What?!?!? Really? You SWeeps like Badonks better?? 🤦♀️ And of course, the official SW arbiter of Badonk status is @TexChik's comments. 😉
I hope you've found this exercise informative and educational. And before you criticize me for this, what did you do on your fourteen day quarantine?!?! 🤨
This is not the first time I've gleaned statistics from his posts. Check this out for my first statistical analysis of Amby's work: https://similarworlds.com/2435000-I-Like-Natural-Boobs/825555-Hey-Ladies-Ready-for-some-fun-And-by-the-way-thats.

Very interesting did you note a preference for shaved or unshaved women?
Also I'm curious about the demographics of these posts (men/women, orientation, and age). I think Amby would have to get that and I imagine it would be kinda time consuming
@samueltyler2 except that we are talking about a selection of pictures some of which do feature unshaved women. So it is the perfect way to determine a preference.
@HellfireandCandy to do the study correctly, it would have to be set up as a prospective, random, placebo controlled study. Post a series of photos, some of which Sarabee likes and some she doesn't, then we would have to rate them. I third person would then have to tally the hearts and see if she does pick them as often as she did in the non-controlled study.
@HellfireandCandy good for you! I agree. Shaven reminds me of little girls. That makes me a little uncomfortable. It is, however, a woman's personal choice.
@HellfireandCandy @samueltyler2 I considered hitting Amby up to sponsor me for VIP so I could peek into who was doing the hearting then try to correlate the gender of the fan with the various attributes, but as you said, that would be a LOT of work and this was just one boring afternoon, not a senior thesis!
I did look at bare/not bare in my spreadsheet, but this was one of the categories where there were not enough data points to draw any valid conclusions. He simply didn't post enough women with at least some hair within my sample of 55 posts. 🤷♀️
@samueltyler2 I chose the sample. I made sure I went back before the first time he or I discussed me possibly doing this so I wasn't getting any bias in his posts or in my hearting. Then I wanted ten days worth, but he's quite the prolific poster so I stopped when I got cramped in my Excel hand! I was at 55 subjects then and I figured that was enough for a fun project (not enough for any truly scientific study though).
