Optimal Waist-to-Hip Ratios in Women Activate Neural Reward Centers in Men

PLoS ONE: Optimal Waist-to-Hip Ratios in Women Activate Neural Reward Centers in Men
"Secondary sexual characteristics convey information about reproductive potential.
In the same way that facial symmetry and masculinity, and shoulder-to-hip ratio convey information about reproductive/genetic quality in males, waist-to-hip-ratio (WHR) is a phenotypic cue to fertility, fecundity, neurodevelopmental resources in offspring, and overall health, and is indicative of “good genes” in women."

"Fecundity"?
I always thought it was tits and ass...... hooters and hips.

Am I still single cuz I never understood fecundity?
