YOUR BUTT SERVES A LOT LARGER PURPOSE THAN JUST LOOKING GOOD IN A PAIR OF JEANS, BECAUSE WITHOUT THE GLUTEAL MUSCLES (MAXIMUS, MEDIUS, MINIMUS) YOU WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO WALK OR EVEN STAND. THE REAR END OF HUMANS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF EVOLUTIONARY PERFECTION. BUT YOU PROBABLY DIDN’T KNOW THAT YOUR BUTT SHAPE CAN REVEAL A LOT ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.
They come in all sizes and different shapes. And some people have decided to get a little philosophical about them.
However, there's a general consensus among medical and fitness experts that your butt shape is related to your overall health. If you are not sure about what your butt shape is, simply step in front of a mirror and have a good look.
A person’s overall distribution of body fat is often a good indicator of health, but fat is not distributed equally. If you have some extra fat in your butt it can be a sign of good health.That’s because it keeps the fatty acids away from vital organs such as the heart and liver and also the arteries.
But this isn’t the same for both sexes. For men having a bigger butt doesn’t necessarily mean they are healthier. It’s just that women are genetically predisposed to have bigger butts.

Just a few more notes:
If you have a perky butt, then there are a few benefits that you may enjoy. Among these are increased calorie burn and some protection from osteoporosis. It is also linked with pelvic cavity and easier childbirth.
A dropping backside is usually a sign of weak core muscles which affect the arch your back. If your hips seem heavier, it could be a sign that you have some foot problems.
People who have a flat booty tend to store the fat around their midsection rather than the lower body. This fat is more active than the fat that is associated with heart disease and diabetes.
