Butt This Sounds Like Some Bad Science to Me
Aesthetic appeal aside, a big derrière might be beneficial to women by helping out their children. A 2010 study from the University of Oxford, popular once more, connects the big booty to healthy children, crediting the Omega 3 “good” fatty acids present in the mother’s body for the extra boost.
And fat deposits like those in the hips, butt and thighs store heightened levels of Omega 3s, the same fatty acids that help babies’ brains develop properly.
Evidence shows the fats in a mother’s breast milk comes from the lower half of the body, which means that all those Omega 3s become a part of baby’s balanced breakfast. But this idea isn’t new: Research dating back to 2007 showed that gluteofemoral fat is key in producing smart offspring.
In fact, University of Pittsburgh study author William Lassek even hypothesized men could be attracted to women with large bottoms as an evolutionary way of ensuring successful children.
Lassek’s gone so far as to publish a book on the subject, titled “Why Women Need Fat.”
The bottom line? Stay active and healthy, because carrying “good” fat below the waist is most likely the result of genetics.Now I know a little bit about the female derrière. I've got one, and it follows me everywhere. And as I said before, I ain't no brainy scientifical type gal, ya know. Butt one look at Momma Kardashian and her clan, or a quick trip through the local hood to gaze upon it's abundance of heightened levels of Omega 3 big booty population and the brain develop going on there tells me this here some bad Science. Uh Huh.
Discuss among yourselves, Gentlemen.....
