#1 Big thighs = big butts, and everyone loves a big butt.

In 2014, we experienced the booty movement. Big butts were everywhere revered by Meghan Trainor in her catchy hit "All About That Bass," admired in J.Lo and Iggy Azalea in their steamy music video for "Booty" and considered something fun to eat.

The best part about all of this is if you have a big booty, you probably have thick thighs anyway, so there's no better time than right now to embrace them.

Nicki Minaj has been leading a big butt revolution, and now is the perfect time to flaunt the junk in your trunk. But all that junk wouldn't be possible if you didn't have something to support it on, and that's why thick-thighed women rule the world.

#2 Thick thighs do a body good when the wind is blowin'

...why would you want all that cold air down there?

Who needs a cold, uncomfortable breeze to blow through your thighs in the wintertime? With thick thighs, you have extra warmth in between your legs when you're walking outside.

After braving a winter as cold as this one, you're sure to be grateful for a little extra meat on your bones.

#3 Thigh gaps are just...so ridiculously hard to achieve if your body isn't built that way. Why stress?

If your thighs are thick, that means they're strong. And "thinspiration" social media accounts are out.

It's the female lift-positive fitness coaches and #GirlsWhoLift users you want to get onto your Instagram feed those who will encourage you to brave those weights at the gym, to not deprive yourself of your favorite foods and, most importantly, to value strong over skinny, especially when it comes to your thighs.

Fitness model and coach Paige Hathaway has 1.7 million followers on Instagram.

She regularly posts photos of herself proudly showing off her muscular arms, sculpted ass and you guessed it! thick thighs.

And dozens of other female fitness gurus on Instagram share her dedication to strength, including Ana Delia De Iturrondo, Rachel Brathen and Amanda Kuclo.

The #GirlsWhoLift hashtag account is equally as inspiring. Its over 3 million posts are filled with real women who inspire other real women to work toward strength.

Strong is not only the new skinny, but the new beautiful.

#5 Your sex game is ridiculous.

When it comes to sex, physical strength especially in your legs is key to a good, lasting session.

So, ladies, forget those passive positions like missionary and doggy style; your thick, strong thighs are perfect for all those crazy sex positions that utilize a hell of a lot of leg muscle, including cowgirl and doing it while standing.

Your muscular thighs give you the confidence to embrace these positions and more that require some strength and effort which means you're a really awesome person to have sex with.

The best sex is had when you're physically able to do whatever your heart desires. Some trickier positions just aren't going to be possible for women with tiny little tree trunk legs and no muscle there...and too bad for themthink about all the realms of sexual pleasure you're going to be able to unlock that they cannot!

#6 If you drop your phone while texting on the toilet, your thighs will catch it!

Could you imagine the horror of an expensive smartphone slipping through your thigh gap? Count me OUT, please!

Imagine you're just innocently browsing Facebook while going to the bathroom when suddenly, you accidentally drop your phone onto your lap.

If you had a thigh gap, your brand new iPhone 6 would plunge right between your thighs and into the toilet, forcing you to say goodbye to it forever.

Your thick thighs, on the other hand, would catch the phone before it reached its demise and cradle it like a fragile newborn child. Thanks to your thighs, your phone is saved.

If that isn't enough of a reason to love thick thighs, I don't know what is.

#7 This is your cartoon doppleganger.

And I'm sorry...but she is WAY hotter than any Q-tip skinny Disney princess.

While everyone else is obsessed with emulating the unrealistic daintiness of Disney princesses like Belle, Ariel and Cinderella, your wide hips and voluptuous thighs resemble those of everyone's favorite redhead, Jessica Rabbit.

And she's way sexier than any princess.

#7 You won't get tired from dancing at the club, or sore the morning after...your legs can last all night long!

Since your thighs are strong, they're better suited for dancing long hours at a party or the club.

At 2 am, your friends will complain about how their legs just can't even anymore. Your legs, however, always can.

And where others are falling at their heeled feet, you'll be pressing on into the night, ready to hit up your favorite after-hours pizza place. And isn't that all a girl really wants?

Thigh gaps are impossible to achieve if your body isn't predispositioned for one. And true body confidence comes from seeing the positive in what you have, not worrying about what you don't have.

#9 OWN your body and you'll feel way better than if you spend your whole life trying to get someone else's!

Yearning for a thigh gap when your bone structure won't allow you to have one is like yearning to grow wings from your spine.

Just a reminder that it literally, physically can't happen, so why stress about it?

#10 Studies suggest that thick thighs are good for the heart (scientifically, as well as emotionally)!

A 2009 Danish study suggests thicker thighs might decrease your risk of heart disease and increase your life expectancy.

Over the course of 10 years, researchers studied the health of 3,000 men and women and found that those whose thighs were over 23.6 inches in circumference experienced less risk of serious health problems than those with smaller thighs.

The researchers hypothesized that participants with narrow thighs didn't have enough muscle mass to handle insulin correctly, which led to an increased risk of diabetes and, subsequently, heart disease.
