Bigger Breasts = Smarter?

[Xamonas Chegwé]

"Intelligent" girls do well at school, get better jobs, earn more money and thus can afford boob jobs...

Personally, I prefer truly intelligent girls - the ones that don't give a shit about boob jobs and actually think. Girlbrainz iz sexeh!

This makes it sound like you are saying if you naturally have big boobs you can't be intelligent. I don't give a shit about getting a boob job, but that's easy for me to say because I have pretty big boobs. I have no idea how I would feel if I was an A-cup, and I'm sure lots of intelligent women are not entirely comfortable with the body they have naturally.

It does? Well I know that's not true. You'd have to be flat-chested to even think that!

It would be interesting to see if this could be duplicated. One study, fairly small sample size - there's no way to say at the moment it the connection between breast size and IQ is real. I just thought it was a rather interesting study.

[Coito ergo sum]

I hope it was obvious that I was being sarcastic The "study" seems completely valueless as far as I can see. Even if in the few thousand test subjects, a trend was observed, that is not nearly enough data or sample size to make accurate assumptions. Especially if it was all conducted in one area. In the end if it did turn out to be correct, was would be the use of the data? To know that if you have certain genes you may have an IQ score a few points higher than others? Not exactly the kind of science that seems worth funding

You were? I thought it was obvious that you were both smart and a hottie.

Many studies of several thousand test subjects are used as samples. If you throw out this just based a few thousand not being a sample size big enough to draw conclusions, well, you throw out most studies ever done.

Maybe the study was privately funded. However, if I were going to conduct a study, this is certainly one that I would find personally valuable and stimulating. I could definitely see why someone would want to conduct it.

And, as gravity takes hold...your view on boob jobs may well evolve over time. It's one thing when 20-something boobs stand properly at attention, it's another thing when they start getting mistaken for knees.

So they are actually brain lobes....

[mistermack]

So girls with big tits might be more intelligent? I've never noticed that.

But then, it's hard to concentrate on what they're saying.

[MiM]

Hmm, both are fatty tissue . If breast size correlates with nutrition as youth, then we have a common denominator, as brains definitely do that. Another possible correlator could be self esteem. I don't find this result too unbelievable .

[apophenia]

Well, I certainly would question the quality of the study until further studies bear out the finding, but it wouldn't surprise me to find the results perfectly valid. It's entirely plausible to me that breasts clustering around a certain size or trending in a certain direction serve as proxy markers for fecundity. And as the genes for sexual selection of specific traits conspire to be carried by both sexes, as a necessity for their transmission, if partners are desirable for intelligence, and partners are desirable for a certain size of bosom, then the genes for both bosoms and intelligence will end up in both females and males that are reproductively successful. Those of you men who have daughters with large breasts don't realize it but your ancestors, both male and female, likely contributed critically to your child's endowment.

Why are men interested in breasts at all?
It's because we walk upright and have a poor sense of smell.

On all fours, a woman's vagina is right there at nose level. Our male ancestors got all the information they needed by sniffing. When we began walking upright, men had to use their eyes more to select a suitable mate.
And women had to advertise their youth and fitness with visual clues, rather than scent.

So our sense of smell became less important, and bigger tits became attractive.

The interest in breasts is relative to the demands that they be hidden. Simple.

I thought it had to do with the fact that girl milk is better than cow milk.

Let's see if anybody here can give an opinion on that.

[Svartalf]

Tested for you, and it's true.
