Big Boobed Shoppers!

Alibaba, everyone's favorite Chinese company, found some odd correlations in their shopper data: women who buy big bras spend more money in general. However, have you seen what it costs to buy a bra that fits properly when you've got an E cup? The data is probably skewed entirely by the price of the bras they're buying. From a scientific standpoint, however, large breasts are a sign of available resources, so if you're too poor for food, you're probably not growing as large a breasts as someone with a dedicated Crunch-N-Munch budget. So, marketers: if you've got information on a customer's breast size, steer her towards the more expensive stuff, the data shows she can afford it -- and if you don't already have that data, stop asking for it, that's really creepy.
