Hip Size vs. Intelligence

According to a latest medical research study, there is significant correlation between hip size and human intelligence. The findings of this study reveal that if one has a bigger hip size, his/her IQ is almost 30% higher than their counterparts with relatively smaller hip size. Having read the research report, I felt a bit excited and hilarious for those who are always worried about their big body shapes because this group of people tends to have lower self-esteem. Sure, we should be health conscious and shouldn't be too fat; otherwise, we may have a lot of health hazards. However, in Hong Kong, people are 'figure conscious' rather than 'health conscious' since they try to make themselves underweight by using tons of methods like self-induced vomiting, laxatives and plastics surgery... The list is endless. Though I am not very convinced with the statistical figures presented in the medical research I mentioned earlier on, I am very happy with the implications drawn from the study, that is, those being supersize still have their own worth, at least intelligence wise. What do you think?

Wow! What a pleasing message!

I wonder if Icy will deny the findings. Hehe!
