This is turning out to be the week the Chateau carpet bombs the gangrenous ids of equalist freaks and fatties, with ordnance enriched by shibboleth-smashing ¡SCIENCE!. The latest evisceration: high waist-to-hip ratio fat chicks give birth to dumb kids.
Upper-body fat has negative effects and lower-body fat has positive effects on the supply of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential for neurodevelopment. Thus, waist-hip ratio (WHR), a useful proxy for the ratio of upper-body fat to lower-body fat, should predict cognitive ability in women and their offspring. Moreover, because teenage mothers and their children compete for these resources, their cognitive development should be compromised, but less so for mothers with lower WHRs. These predictions are supported by data from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Controlling for other correlates of cognitive ability, women with lower WHRs and their children have significantly higher cognitive test scores, and teenage mothers with lower WHRs and their children are protected from cognitive decrements associated with teen births. These findings support the idea that WHR reflects the availability of neurodevelopmental resources and thus offer a new explanation for men’s preference for low WHR.
The wages of fat moms are mangled kids and dumb kids. Note that this study controlled for cognitive ability, so it is the DISGUSTING MOMFAT ITSELF that’s dumbing down the newborns.
Way to go, fatties!
Like I’ve said, shaming fatties is more than sadistic fun and environmental activism. It’s a goddamned moral imperative.
SHAME A FATTY, SAVE A CHILD
