Do Larger Breasts Equal Lower Grades? Online Voters Say 'Yes'
Do Larger Breasts Equal Lower Grades? Online Voters Say 'Yes'

POSTED: 12:49 pm EST February 21, 2006
UPDATED: 1:24 pm EST February 21, 2006

An unscientific survey on a popular Web site suggests that stereotypical beliefs about women hold true in 2006, at least among Internet surfers.

WhatsMyImage.com allows members to view photos of complete strangers and then make guesses about the details of their private lives.

The Web site analyzed hundreds of votes that had been cast since May and found that there was a very strong correlation between female bra size and perceived grade point average.

On average, voters guessed that "A-cup" students had GPAs that were 0.3 points higher than those of "D-cup" students.

"B-cup" and "C-cup" students were voted to have GPAs in the middle of that range, each averaging about 0.2 points higher than the "D-cup" group.

Damn shame such stereotypes still permeat our culture. I wonder what the dick size was of people voting in the poll?

18. That's a common misconception due to the fact that most
blondes really aren't blonde at all. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

24. would you please stop talking to my chest!
My face is up here. ;-)

The dipsticks that replied to the poll are probably the ones who drive jacked up pickups and think they are studs. I call them roosters, since they share a similar IQ and testosterone levels.

26. I work around a lot of professional folks
and, sad to say, I can see them voting the same way really. Only difference is they have to be careful what they say at work whereas the blue collar crowd seems to be more free to express themselves :)

27. It's an understandable result of stupid women and breast implants.
Sadly.. the bimbo mentality is in vogue, and girls are rushing to have breast implants in an effort to shore up their meaningless lives. It's sad that women who are born with larger breasts are suffering that stereotype, because some people are dumb enough to actually have major surgery to get giant breasts. look at the popular media? Does Pamela Anderson play a rocket scientist?

32. according to one controversial Canadian study, yes
It was based on race
Asians, small dicks big brains
Whites, medium dicks, medium brains
Blacks, big dicks, small brains.

The guy got reamed for the study, as you'd probably guess
