Ok, so we all know that big booties drive men crazy. I mean, look at the effects of celebrities like Kim Kardashian, J. Lo, and Beyonce have on any warm-blooded male. But as it turns out, having an apple bottom can also help prevent certain diseases.Studies at Harvard Medical School showed that having a bottom-heavy body shape can help prevent Type 2 Diabetes. (Editor’s Note: Looks like I’m safe from that… forever.) Fats stored in or around your fine a$$ help make better use of insulin, the hormone that regulates blood sugar.
Researchers say it’s not so much where the fat is stored, however, but the kind of fat stored in the booty, which proves that not all fat is bad for your health.
Well amen for that! My brother’s been teasing me about my rather large badonkadonk for as long as I can remember. I used to hate it since he insisted it needed its own area code, but I like to consider it one of my better assets these days. And the one thing keeping me healthy.
Looks like having a fat ass isn’t all that bad. I think Sir Mix-a-Lot said it best when he said “Shake it, shake it, shake that healthy butt.”

I think the real message behind the study done was that a pear shape, with a big booty, is much healthier than an apple shape. So while the fat stored in your ass is healthier for you than fat stored in your abdomen, it doesn’t mean having a fat ass is healthy lol… sawwy.

yea…jen…maybe the point is that having some curves is a good thing…esp since having no ass doesn’t automatically mean you’re healthy.
……sawwy.

I think Jen was saying that if you are fat all over, and just happen to have more fat in your ass, then you can’t really use this article to justify your issue.
