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)

Throughout history men have seeked out fat women. We've been trying to breed fat people for ages

Egyptians aren't black.

ETA: The more I think about that, the more (unnecessarily) pissed I get. Like when Al Sharpton said this: "White folks was in the caves while we was building empires. … We built the pyramids before Donald Trump ever knew what architecture was."

Um, no.

And stop saying Jesus was black, too.
