I’m a female member in my 20s. While gathering information on Twitter, I often come across papa-katsu girls claiming that “short, busty women with bangs attract lower-quality men and receive lower allowances, while tall, flat-chested women without bangs are chosen by high-quality men and receive higher allowances. The source is a study announced by the University of Westminster.”

This content is machine-translated.
Is there actually any truth to this? I’d love to hear everyone’s opinions.

I’m Kazu, a male member. That’s a maliciously prejudiced claim—about as bad as saying, “Women with large breasts are stupid.” If the claim is that “people who make statements like that are low-level,” then I’d agree(笑) I looked it up: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10508-013-0081-5 Is this the paper they’re using as their source (or “evidence?”), *Men’s Oppressive Beliefs Predict Their Breast Size Preferences in Women*? From the abstract, it seems to discuss men’s beliefs, but not their income. To begin with, the wording “a study announced by the University of Westminster” makes it sound like they haven’t actually read the paper. It’s practically like writing “I’ve never seriously studied anything” on their forehead. Embarrassing. Isn’t this simply defamation against their fellow students? If they claim the paper is their evidence, tell them to read it first—and when making a claim, at least include the title and publication year, or preferably the DOI. > Mac > Kazu, you found it really quickly. How did you find it?? I Googled “westminster university breast size paper.” That said, Mac’s find, *Resource Security Impacts Men’s Female Breast Size Preferences*, is indeed closer to the tweet. > So that’s the kind of person they are… I somehow understand that reaction(笑)I was also curious about the game console and software visible behind the author(笑)
