Take a bow, ladies. Just don't hurt your back. After your American counterparts, Canadian women have the biggest boobs on the planet, according to a very in-depth (slightly creepy) study.
The research, published in the , analyzed the volume of breast tissue in 342,000 women ages 28-30 in 108 different countries.
The breasts studied had to be natural, and the women neither pregnant, breastfeeding or on hormonal treatments.
American women, far and away, had the biggest breasts. But Canadians weren't far behind.
"In terms of absolute figures the largest mean breast volumes have women born in the North American countries," the researchers reported. "The mean breast volume of Caucasian U.S. women was 1,668 ml and the mean breast volume of women born in Canada was 1,194 ml."
After that, volumes drop substantially -- Ireland (992 ml), Poland (968 ml), the United Kingdom (879 ml), the Netherlands (801 ml) and Iceland (757 ml).
"The mean breast volumes of women born in African and Asian countries were generally substantially below 200 ml," the scientists reported.
North American women are also more likely to have rounder breasts than anywhere else in the world.
