All humans are programmed to search for a mate. This mate should be healthy, capable of taking care of him/herself, caring enough to raise children and be almost perfectly symmetrical in physical features.
Women prefer men who are taller, more muscular because of the past ways of living which required a tall and large man to be intimidating and scare off rivals as well as predators. Women also prefer men with a head that has its length and width proportional to the golden ratio or something like that.
Men prefer women with a certain hip to waist ratio, that ratio has been changing over the centuries. More generally, men like women who are shorter (because tall means intimidating) and have good size hips for childbearing.
