Big is Not Always Better: A study done in Kenya by PLOS One discovered that men with substantial penises were more likely to have a cheating wife. For every inch over the norm, the wife was one and a half times more likely to cheat. They attributed this to the fact that women associate large penis girth with pain during love-making, leading them to find a more comfortable love- partner.

Enjoy the View– A more controversial study conducted by Katren Weatherby, a German physician, discovered that men who admire a woman’s upper torso for at least 10 minutes a day will live a longer life. Viewing breasts helped males lower their blood pressure and pulse rate leading to healthier hearts. Life spans were increased by 5 years. So, women, the next time your significant other suggests lunch at Hooter’s, remember it’s just his daily workout.
