Now ... I have a question for you: what do you think about the common belief that different groups of humans have particular attractions to different shapes of rear-ends? For instance, those in Asia like smaller hiny's, while those of African descent like larger ones. Am I incorrect with this assumption? I am of a divergent opinion than Leonidas, in that I feel it goes beyond just attraction to different shapes of rear-ends, and into total body type. For instance, here in the USA, the current 'correct' version of sexy is for women to look like a 14 year old boy with plums in his shirt pockets (to follow the 'supermodel' theory), since here in the USA, it is relatively easy to find and get enough to eat, therefore by being thin you are showing self restraint in not overindulging and becoming fat. However, I have read of certain tribes in Africa, where it is harder to find and get a sufeit of food, who hold that the women who are what in the USA would be called 'fat' are considered the sexiest and most sought after for mates, since this implies a certain social status/wealth (I can get enough food to become this size). Or it may be I am just talking out of my ass, I dont know. In re asian preference for small hineys, maybe it grew out of a liking for someone who showed an awareness of the problem with the population density vs available resources (I am thinking mainly of Chine and Japan here) - where a potential mate was found attractive for having a small hiney which showed they were frugal with the limited food resources available to the mass number of people. And, again, in re the African descended preference for a larger bootys may go back to the 'I can afford to be large because my family/myself are such good hunters/providers' just my rambling/babbling tuppence
