Long Live Big-Butt Women!

Found an interesting article in ThirdAge that said:

LONG LIVE BIG-BUTT WOMEN! Why? Because a new study out of Oxford University in England found women with "pear-shaped" figures with ample extra padding around the hips, buttocks and thighs are actually at a lower risk for heart and metabolic diseases.



So now those curves are making cardiologists smile. "It is shape that matters and where the fat gathers," said Oxford's Dr. Konstantinos Manolopoulos, explaining that fat stored on the hips and in the rear absorb harmful fatty acids and further prevent arteries from clogging.

"Fat around the hips and thighs is good for you, but around the tummy is bad," he told BBC News, noting that the proverbial "spare tire" around the belly leads to higher incidences of heart disease.

The findings help explain why women traditionally have lower rates of heart disease then men until they reach menopause, when their rates rise as they begin to gather fat around their midsections.

"The only thing I can say is that women who have large thighs shouldn't be anxious about it," Manolopoulos said. "Their body shape is associated with health."
Scientists believe genetics play a large role in where a body stores fat.

SO LADIES, NOW YOU CAN PROUDLY WAGGLE YOUR ASS :-)

"That testosterone is the most central in treating the Irritable Male Syndrome. It is credited with making men strong, shrinking their bellies, protecting their heart, and boosting sexual desire in both men and women. Larrian Gillespie, M.D., an authority on male and female hormonal changes says that it is testosterone that helps men stay "forever strong, forever young." She calls it the "Holy Grail of manhood."

The ratio between index and ring finger is believed to be linked to exposure to the male hormone testosterone in the womb. On average, men tend to have longer ring fingers and women longer index fingers. The higher the testosterone, the greater the length of the ring finger and the more "masculine" the resulting child -- whether male or female. The longest ring finger is known as the "Casanova pattern".

If high T is good, well higher T must be even better, and why not go for the highest T possible. In fact this seemed to be the attitude of many men in a study conducted by Robert S. Tan, M.D. He asked the men this question -- "If the doctor told you that your testosterone levels were normal, would you still want a testosterone shot?" Tan said he was surprised by their response. "Almost half (48%) said YES, implying that there is never too much of a good thing!"

Although many men don't want to admit it, we too are glad to be driven less by our one-eyed friend. "It's nice not to be led around by my cock," one 60 year-old man told me. "It seems that my whole life has been driven by my need to succeed so that I could get an attractive woman to pay attention to me. Once I had one, I felt I had to keep driving myself to prove to her I was worthy of her attention. Meanwhile I was always being drawn like a magnet to younger and prettier women. I know it may seem unmanly to say it, but I'm happy to feel less sexually driven. I can finally think about what I really want to do with my life."
