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.

(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.

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.”
