Actually….I read that a woman’s bum is what subconsciously attracts a man to mate. Whether a man wants to admit it or not. That and wide hips were always signs of the availability of a woman to bear children. When men force women to be stick-thin (and lots do) it’s almost a sort of misogynistic act, really as most women cannot be shaped that way.
What I like about this photo…is that there are a lot more women that have a bubble bum like that….than are flat as pancakes like Kate Moss. What I also like about this photo is that she does it with no apologies. We need to have a return to more interesting body shapes other than thin, thinner, thinnest. Maybe it was “photoshopped” and the contrast on the photo is not flattering, but whatever its intention….it’s a lot more realistic than a Size 2 woman. If Jennifer Lopez was to allow a shot like this….it would look similar, no doubt.
I just think we need to get off the skeletal image of beauty…it’s dangerous, it’s not realistic and it has harmed women on all levels for too long.
Healthy bodies come in all shapes and sizes. That’s what we need to bring back into social consciousness.
