The problem is that what this article calls "super-attractive women" are, increasingly, those dictated by gay fashion designers, who are convinced that the most attractive sort of woman is one who has the figure of a teenage boy.
Now, I appreciate that women who are naturally "petite" can look very nice with sort of shape, but most look better if they just let their curves form naturally, rather than trying to starve said curves out of themselves. If nothing else, they'll look happier and healthier that way, and I think it's far more refreshing to see a woman who's comfortable with her own body shape.

I eat like a horse and still don't put on weight, so does that make me less feminine?

I realise I don't necessarily account for everyone with that rant, and I do know women who are tall rather than petite and still look perfectly feminine.
My main point is basically that women - in fact, people generally - will look best if they play to the natural figure their body assumes and just try to stay healthy. I realise that some women aren't blessed with the figure they'd like, but this reinforces my objection to the stereotypes prescribed by fashion designers - if we didn't let them tell us what to wear then perhaps we could all be a little more comfortable with the way we are. Men and women alike look happier and healthier by trying to be comfortable with their natural figure, and that's got to be a hell of a lot more attractive to the respective opposite sex.
