"Tetology": female breasts, explained by science
Breasts, tits, breasts, breasts, busts, uders and a long list of a little more vulgar synonyms are the names with which we refer to that part of the female anatomy that is located somewhere between the clavicles and the navel.An accumulation of fats, ligaments, conjunctive fabrics and breast lobes that have brought millions of men and women throughout the history of the human being.
Perhaps that is why science has dedicated a great effort to identify what makes female breasts so special, and over recent years, many studies have been lit that address this part of the anatomy from different points of view.They may serve to get rid of obsession for that dark object of desire (or perhaps not), but of course, it can be useful to know what we are talking about when we talk about tits.
The poorer you are, the bigger you like
Let's start with the most recent research.As indicated this July a study published in Plosone, men belonging to a lower or lower social level.The reason that researchers argue is that because large breasts have a greater fat reserve, our irrational side makes us prefer them in those moments when we have an empty stomach.In addition, according to the investigation data, the higher the socioeconomic level of the person, the smaller the size of the breasts they prefer.
The size does matter ...
Is it true that we like big breasts?Yes, and according to a couple of sociological experiments carried out in France and in New Zealand, we are destined to approach those women with greater bust size.Both in one study and another, the same woman with different chest sizes received more furtive looks and the attention of more men the higher the number on the label of her bra.
... above all, if you are a macho
The same study in which it was discovered that hungry men prefer lush women also indicated that the most macho people usually also prefer the largest breasts.However, those who have a more egalitarian vision about the role in the society of men and women in usually prefer smaller breasts.
The fasteners make them fall
Bring a bra or not?This is one of the most recurring discussions regarding female fashion, but a study published this year seems to have given a definitive end (or, at least one point and followed at the moment).According to Jean-Denis Roullon of the University of Besançon in France after having conducted a 15-year study, the fasteners weaken the muscles that contribute to the firmness of the chest, so those women who did not use said garment hada half nipples seven millimeters higher than those that did.
It's the first thing they look at
We all know what a man is going to answer when asked what is the first one that looks at a woman.Probably, the answer is "in your smile", "in your eyes", "in your hair" or some similar zaraja.But according to an investigation in the University of Wellington, in New Zealand, 80% of the male looks are instinctively go to the neckline of women whose photographs had been presented to them.Not only did they look first, but more time.What were the least observed female areas?Arms, calves and feet.
Its size is determined by genes
A study published in July 2012 indicated the seven genetic markers that determine the size of the bust and that can be inherited from mothers to daughters.However, the most interesting of the research carried out by Nicholas Erickson and the Gentic Test Company 23Andme is that it showed that there is a relationship between chest size and the possibility of breast cancer.
Large breasts are something exclusive to human beings
Perhaps many have not repaired it, but in a few animal species there is as much difference between the size of some breasts and others as in the human.As evolutionary scientists indicate, other hominids simply make their chest grow during breastfeeding and subsequently return to their flat state.Why don't man?Because for humans it is a sexual ornament, since the sand watch shape (wide in breasts and hips, narrow at the waist) is the most attractive to the human male, something that does not happen with the rest of primates.
They are getting bigger
And no, it is not only about the appearance of these miraculous powers push-ups that allow creating a peculiar visual effect, but the statistics show that the breasts are growing year after year.The motives?Apart from the obvious increase in aesthetic surgery operations, weight gain in the western female population has contributed significantly to this growth.In fact, the average size in the United States has gone from being a 34b in 1990 to a 36c.
