Do men like big butts
Fall for Ocean Town, Maryland
According to a study highlighted in Medical Daily, a team of researchers at Turkey's Bilkent University found further evidence supporting an evolutionary explanation for why men are attracted to women with curvy derrieres.
The learn determined that the ancestral advantage for women with a 45 degree spine curvature, which enables mobility through pregnancy, has remained a preferred feature of modern man. In evolutionary terms, our forebears are thought to have developed a sexual attraction to women with greater curvature because they possessed the highest likelihood of bearing children who would exist to further pass on DNA.
To test the theory in the present, researchers had 300 men observe at silhouettes of women with varying degrees of spine curvature. They create that the majority of men expressed a taste for silhouettes with spine curvature of 45.5 degrees, bolstering the notion that the attraction to large butts could reflect an instinct for genetic survival.

Science Has Finally Figured Out Why Men Like Vast Butts
Butts are definitely having a moment, and now science might actually own an answer to why we're all about that bass.
Researchers at Bilkent University in Turkey showed 300 men silhouettes of women's bodies and asked to rank them in arrange of preference. They initiate that the men were most attracted to women whose spines curved exactly 45 degrees above the top of their butts, but that the men were actually more attracted to the spinal curve — known as vertebral wedging — than the butts themselves. Why? The researchers say that having "extra mass around the buttocks" enhanced the appearance of the curvature.
Dr. David Lewis, one of the researchers on the research , told Daily Mail that vertebral wedging developed out of necessity. "[It] would have enabled ancestral women to shift their center of mass back over their hips during pregnancy, a time during which there is a dramatic forward shift of their center of mass," he said. "This benefit is critical: Without being capable to do this, women would experience a dramatic increase in hip torque, subjecting them to uncertainty of muscular fatigue and injury.&

In the learn, approximately 100 men, between the ages of 17 to 34, were asked to rate the attractiveness of images of a woman’s silhouette as she stood sideways. Each image had been altered so the lower spine curved out at different angles—causing the woman’s butt to protrude in varying extremes. What researchers found: Overwhelmingly, men preferred the uber-bendy images that showed the lower spine curved at a 45-degree angle, from back to buttocks
