The average hip circumference of Korean adult women was found to be 38 inches (96.52 cm).

Global market research company Gitnux has compiled and released the average butt size of women in 17 countries. According to this, the average hip circumference of Korean women was larger than that of Japan (37.8 inches) and China (37.4 inches).

South African women took first place with an average height of 41.73 inches.

Argentine women with an average height of 41 inches ranked second. Buttock enlargement surgery is popular in South America. Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, is known as the center of plastic surgery. This ranking does not seem to be unrelated to this. Sweden (40.9 inches) followed in third place.

Among the 32 developed countries announced by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in 2022, the United States ranked first in adult obesity rate (40.0%) at 40.2 inches.

Among the countries surveyed, the country with the smallest butt size was India, with an average of only 36.1 inches. India has one of the lowest obesity rates in the world.

The researchers did not reveal why each country was ranked the way it did.

According to experts in this field, the human buttocks developed into their current form out of necessity during the evolution of mankind.

Professor Darcy Shapiro, an evolutionary anthropologist at Ruckus University in the United States, wrote in an article in Massive Science, “Humans are the only mammals that walk on two legs, so they evolved to have larger buttocks compared to other mammals.”

Some studies have shown that it evolved into a desired trait because it was a sign of a woman’s youth and fertility.

A study published in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior found that spinal structure can affect waist size. In the study, men were most attracted to images of women with 45-degree curves from back to hips.

“This spinal structure may have allowed pregnant women to balance their weight on their hips,” the research team said. “These women may have been more effective at foraging during pregnancy and may have been less likely to sustain spinal injuries.” revealed.

Scholars note that a variety of factors can affect a woman’s butt size, including bone density, genetics, diet, overall weight, and activity level.
