What's the science behind uncommonly large breasts?

Is it a natural or artificial selection thing, or just luck of the draw?

>> No.8606190

>>8605937
Men sexually select women with larger breasts because it makes them look fertile and able to provide lots of nourishment to offspring. Obviously there is some genetic variance. Whether you call this selection artificial or natural is a bit iffy philosophically, but that distinction doesn't matter that much in this case.

tl;dr: yes

High levels of estrogen generate very attractive female forms flat stomach, big butt, huge breasts, wasp waist.

So the fact that I hate big breasts and ass just makes me an outlier?

It's probably a fairly recent thing. Features that have direct impact on the sexual standing are strongly selected for. Note that there's no strong correlation between big tits and fertility, that is just a myth. For actual survival big tits are extremely disadvantageous though.

No, it just makes you a faggot. Or a pedo. Or a combination

It's another episode of Evolutionary conjecture!

progesterone

there's a reason that teens like tits and grown men are more attracted to the backside.

progesterone makes big tits, estrogen makes big hips.

Growth hormone and modern diet. You don't see huge tatas anywhere past western civilization.

Sugar and chemicals probably. But look up any picture of tribal people or nomadic people anywhere. There are no huge titties like the ones pictured.

Much nicer smaller ones actually...
