Nov.12.2007 Your feminine curvaceousness equals brainpower
A new study says that girls with more “voluptuousness” performed better on cognitive tests. As did their children.
Researchers studied 16,000 women and girls and found the more voluptuous performed better on cognitive tests - as did their children.
The bigger the difference between a woman’s waist and hips the better.
In this area, the fat is likely to be the much touted Omega-3, which could improve the woman’s own mental abilities as well as those of her child during pregnancy.
Men respond to the double enticement of both an intelligent partner and an intelligent child, the researchers at the Universities of Pittsburgh and California said.
See, now the BBC is reporting on this study as though it’s a story about triumph of fatsos. But in reality, it’s more about if you’re a thin girl with wide hips and a big booty, here’s yet another perk to pile onto your list of reasons to enjoy life. Other perks include: Rappers pouring bottles of alcohol onto you with or without your permission, no need for chair cushions, and men wanting to have sex with you in ways that involve looking at the back of your head. Pretty sweet deal!
Good thing it isn’t about fat women getting an upperhand in the brains department though. I mean, even if it meant the difference between my child being able to write brilliant sonnets or saying “Spametti” at age 30 instead of “spaghetti,” I’d still probably opt for the more attractive woman. If I wanted to f*ck a vat of mashed potatoes, I’d just visit my cousins in Idaho more often. And have sex with their mother.
