Why do men like butt
The Science of Why You’re an Ass Man
It's a glorious time to be an ass man: Nicki Minaj exists, yoga pants are a thing, and women everywhere are squatting their way to more shapely backsides.
But of course, your obsession with the female butt is nothing new. In fact, it's primal, says David Buss, Ph.D., a psychology professor at the University of Texas at Austin.
You're drawn to a woman's heinie for the same reason you're attracted to her breasts, hips, and a little waist: because those traits would have been indicators of fertility to your ancient ancestors, Buss says.
Man evolved to search out women who could procreate, Buss says. If a woman has a full tush, that's a signal to your primitive brain that she's probably carrying enough fat to become pregnant, he says. And if her bum is perky and circular, that means she's probably young—which, in caveman days, would make her a good candidate to convey your cavechild.
"It's a taboo," says Eric M. Garrison, a sex expert and author of Mastering Multiple Position Sex. "We're not allowed to go there. And when it comes to sex, there's something animalistic and dirty about mounting from the rear."

Science Has Finally Figured Out Why Men Like Great Butts
Butts are definitely having a moment, and now science might actually hold an answer to why we're all about that bass.
Researchers at Bilkent University in Turkey showed men silhouettes of women's bodies and asked to rank them in order of preference. They found that the men were most attracted to women whose spines curved exactly 45 degrees above the foremost of their butts, but that the men were actually more attracted to the spinal curve — known as vertebral wedging — than the butts themselves. Why? The researchers say that having "extra mass around the buttocks" enhanced the appearance of the curvature.
Dr. David Lewis, one of the researchers on the study, told Daily Mail that vertebral wedging developed out of necessity. "[It] would contain enabled ancestral women to shift their center of mass back over their hips during pregnancy, a time during which there is a dramatic forward shift of their center of mass," he said. "This benefit is critical: Without being able to do this, women would experience a dramatic raise in hip torque, subjecting them to risk of muscular fatigue and injury."

And then there's the dirty factor.

When Playboy magazine was in its heyday, women’s breasts reigned supreme. But over the past several decades it appears that the media generally has been paying increasingly greater attention to the lower region of women’s two dominant anatomical protrusions. So might it be possible that more men actually prefer to ogle a woman’s buns than her bust?
The limited quantitative research undertaken on the subject hardly permits a definitive answer. But without question, the female derriere has captured men’s lascivious attention since the time of the Greeks and ancient Chinese dynasties. And if female buttocks rank behind men’s similarly erotic interest in breasts, they’re certainly not a distant second either.
InA Billion Wicked Thoughts: What the World’s Largest Experiment Reveals About Human Desire, neuroscientists Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam—systematically examining what people do on the Internet, particularly on porn sites—conclude that “breasts, no matter what size, are the most popular body part in sexual searches in every country we looked at, including the U.S., Russia, India, Germany, Japan, and Saudi Arabia”. Still, these autho

Is This Always the Case?
The findings were found as part of an online study entitled ・・Evolution and Human Behavior・・ carried out by the University of Texas, so there is scientific evidence behind the claims. Of course, there will be men who just fond of the look of a girl・・s behind. However, for the most part, many do prefer women with the degr
