The funny thing is the Venus of Willendorf has one feature that men like in today's age and decade: her large breasts.
Me? I see beauty in all shapes!

I wonder if sometime history gets shut wrong like maybe people made those fat statues as jokes or something. Also women need to start understanding a man doesn't care what a girl looks like if he likes her. I am out peace

Watching that made my morning ;) And yeah I'm a guy! Always wondered why girls that to me are extreamly hot and sexy allways seem to think they are not good enough or fat, it's what's inside that counts. Great Video!'s ;)

What the hell, Marilyn Monroe is fucking hot and skinny.

I think most straight men prefer women with a BMI between 18 and 25 because that's healthy. The skeleton body type most of today's models have is good for selling useless beauty products to insecure customers, but it's not what men find attractive. I'm the one who decides what I think is attractive, not the gossipy magazines.

@AmelieMermaid Exactly right. I sure don't.

Don't be singing the praises of Dove. Unilever, Dove's company, also the same company for Axe men's line. And we've all seen the "Axe shower girl" ads. Even worse, they sell a skin lightening product to Indian women call "Fair and Lovely". But I'm sure you don't really care.
"Curvy" does not refer simply to full-figured women like Anna Nicole. Anyone can be curvy simply depending on the ratio of their measurements. Marilyn was small to average sized but she was definitely curvy, although not as much as many believe.

if you go THAT far back in time, being "heavy set" was a status symbol, since only the rich could afford to eat that well and not do work. so, it was pretty much glorified back then.
now, especially in the US, being "heavy set" is more of an indicator of lack of self conrtol, so it no longer has the same... effect.
that said, fun fact; what the "average" women thinks is the ideal weight guys like, tends to be about 10-20 lbs less than most guys think the ideal female weight(based on looks)
