People with thick legs have higher IQs

Many people may be trying to lose weight during the hot summer months, but experts at the University of Pittsburgh have found that thick legs may actually be a sign of higher intelligence. The related hashtag went viral online.

Researchers said fat cells provide sufficient fatty acids, which can get your mind going and improve work efficiency.

One Weibo user said, 'From small to large, I am so clever because I have two thick legs.'

Another said people with sedentary lifestyles increased the likelihood that they had thick legs, and therefore higher IQs.
