wrong, we have more blacks, it's evolution.

And that trait makes black women more attractive to black men. It's evolution but you can't handle the truth. The PC gods are in your way

more than just bushman and pygmies have that trait. your quick research failed you

Obesity , total breakdowns shoud be looked into , there is significant higher rates with hispanic male youths & non hispanic black girls in the US which leads the world with tripled rates in the last 2 decades and Mexico at #2 spot . Canada looking respectable enough with 50% less statistically of the US , not surprising we find Japan the lowest in the developed world along with Switzerland & Korea but surprising to me is Italy which comes in 5th lowest out of 28 countries .

Good quick site for general global stats here
nationmaster.com

One could wonder at the fat distribution between the buttocks & the head , would prolly find an equal distribution leaning more to the head region for 2 or 3 of the lame posters here .
