Beauty, they say, comes in all shapes and sizes. And I’d like to believe that this adage extends to the idea of breasts as well, which too come in several forms. 

We have pear-shaped, round, teardrop, asymmetrical and then there is of course a large, medium and small in all of these, giving men a multitude of options to pick from. 

Not that men ever pick a woman based just on the size of their boobs, but in case they do, a study claims some hard-hitting facts that most men might not be ready to hear.

There is a lot that has been said, discussed and discovered about female breastsand a man’s obsession with them. 

One of the most common tropes is - the bigger a woman’s breasts, the greater is a man’s interest in her. And considering that there have been plenty of studies where the attention a woman got was directly proportional to how big her bra size was, we can’t really turn a blind eye to the fact that there might just be a connection here, after all.

However, another connection that a study seems to have found is that between a man’s preference for big breasts and his oppressive beliefs.

Viren Swami and Martin J. Tovee, two researchers from the University of Westminster, London conducted a study with 361 men who viewed different figures of women that varied in breast sizes. Results showed that medium-breasts were rated most frequently as attractive (32.7 %), followed by large (24.4 %) and very large (19.1 %) breasts.

But it was what came next that surprised us more. 

Turns out, men who went for bigger boobs had a direct correlation with the tendency of being benevolently sexist. These were the men, who were analyzed to objectify women, to be hostile towards them and hold oppressive beliefs towards them. 

The study mentioned, “It is arguable that benevolently sexist men perceived larger female breasts as attractive because larger breast size on a woman is associated with perceived femininity."

Does that mean men who prefer big boobs are not nice men? Umm, we think not!

While there might be conjecture (and a single study) that claims there to be a connection in a man’s tendency to be sexist with how big a bra her woman would wear, not all men tend to base their attraction towards a woman based on their bust. Come on, not everyone is Barney Stinson.

Yes, it might be one of the factors, based on each guy’s preference and their social conditioning as to how they view femininity, a lot of men have gone on record to share that they make their choice based on the overall personality of a woman rather than just her boobs. 

And while big breasted women get ogled way more than the ones who have small breasts, it is arguable that a man’s feelings are more complex and not all that linear. 

In a way, men who like big boobs might not all be sexist, but most men who were found to hold sexist beliefs preferred big boobs. 

What do you think?
