That would be what keeps them there...
Alas, the theory about what draws them there initially is an idea that, back when we were all wild and uncivilised*, and could afford to spend time hunter-gathering and then picking out the most suitable mate, obviously we'd want a healthy-looking one that would be sturdy enough to bear and then nourish our offspring. So males of the species would naturally be drawn to broad, womanly hips (i.e., strong, child-bearing pelvis) and great big pendular norks (adequate apparatus for feeding the sprog).

So yeah...not all that funny. But it gives us an excuse, I suppose...
