Built like a brick shithouse?

Then you're in luck, Psychology Today reports.

"A woman's eye-popping hourglass figure offers drooling men more than just an irresistible image. Shapely hips and thighs hold essential nutrients that nurse brains and could produce smart kids too, say Steven Gaulin of the University of California at Santa Barbara and William Lassek of the University of Pittsburgh."

Now I know why I was always doing those Buns of Steel workout videos in my parents' basement as a kid: I was subconsciously gearing up to push out a little brainiac!

The news comes from a recent Human Behavior and Evolution Society meeting (I wasn't there but I heard the seven-layed taco dip was awesome), where the two researchers above explained that women with low waist-to-hip ratios (ie small waist, round rump and hips) give birth to babies with better cognitive abilities than less curvy mothers.

I think jezebel.com did a hilarious job of summing this up:

"Anyway we have to say this news not only makes us feel sooooo much better about Daniellynn, but the entire next generation of celebrity offspring and really, society at large. Think of the brilliant future play dates to be orchestrated by the respective nannies of Kim Kardashian and the Pussycat Dolls, and J. Lo and 'New York.'"

I'm wondering if liposuctioning your waist or getting booty implants can fool men into thinking you'd make smart babies.

Hi Leslie, thanks for the laugh! (especially on, "I was subconsciously gearing up to push out a little brainiac!") :)
