Until now, that is. The crazy kids at College Humor have taken it upon themselves to unlock the "mystery of the female thigh gap," tasking "scientists" with tracing the origins of our strange obsession. Much as it might surprise you, there is apparently no scientific basis for our "mass cultural delusion." Even after "studying the gap in its natural habitat," the "experts" couldn't find a single logical explanation for our "idolatry of nothingness." Instead, they point out its origins as a misogynistic, "dat ass!"-adjacent way for men to consume women's bodies online and define what makes them sexy. Go figure!
Watch the clip below for a much-needed, on-point takedown of this truly ridiculous trend.
