"  Maybe, years ago, you caught those 7th grade boys passing a Hustler back and forth in the back of the middle school bus. You may even have the lingering emotional scars from when their ringleader Spencer Lightman told you that you might be hot if you &amp;quot;grew funbags and waxed your eyebrows.&amp;quot; (Not that this happened to me in these exact words or anything.) The good news is, if you&amp;#039;re a member of the Itty-Bitty Titty Committee, you&amp;#039;ve probably dodged a romantic bullet. A rather unsurprising new study printed in the Archive of Sexual Behavior proves that Spencer Lightman and his ilk are to the douchebag manner born: Men&amp;#039;s preferences for larger breasts were significantly associated with a greater tendency to be &amp;quot;benevolently sexist,&amp;quot; to objectify women, and to be hostile towards ladies. While the phrase &amp;quot;benevolent sexism&amp;quot; is slightly confusing (&amp;quot;Get in the kitchen, please? Thank you?&amp;quot;) as is researchers&amp;#039; method for determining this aspect of the study without some kind of personality questionnaire, the facts are as follows: A selection of London men were subjected to the viewing of five different female forms at 360 degree angles and rated those they found most physically attractive. Incidentally, while medium breasts won out at 32.7 percent overall, they are surpassed if you combine the rankings of &amp;quot;large&amp;quot; (24.4 percent) and &amp;quot;very large&amp;quot; (19.1 percent).  The same large funbag-preferring men also revealed themselves to be generally sexist, based on discussions &amp;quot;in relation to feminist theories.&amp;quot; What can we learn from this? If he&amp;#039;s a boob man (yes, you, Spencer Lightman), just double check he doesn&amp;#039;t expect you to spend  25 hours per week vacuuming.  For more musings from Anna, follow her on Twitter.
