Women’s Ideal Body Types Throughout History

FOUND A BETTER LINK WITH MORE DESCRIPTION: LINK
I've always wondered about what different people of different times considered beauty. I've always heard that in ancient times fat (or very plump) pale women were more desirable because it showed they were never in the sun and had plenty of food, as compared to average women of the day. But the Egyptian look sort of throws that stereotype out.
I was also surprised at how fat women were preferred during the Italian Renaissance and English Victorian age. I would also consider women of the Golden Age of Hollywood fat too.
I personally prefer the Supermodel age look and the modern age. (note, thigh gap makes an appearance)

I didn't notice the hips. The layers of fat got in my way.

I appreciate the heads up, I was about to leave a message telling you where you could stick your head, but I'll refrain.

The Victorian era was a sexually repressive period.

Because it's not true. This is a piece of fat propaganda. Preferences for the female form have remained remarkably similar throughout ages.
It is a myth that Marilyn Monroe, for example, was a BBW. She would put the land whales that roam our day and age to shame. And
to some of the guys in here falling for the propaganda by thinking it's attractive. Posted on 1/28/15 at 2:51 pm to The Third Leg
