You'd be right. Most Cis men tend to call women with anything bigger than a C cup fat. I think on some fucked up level they're groomed by our culture to prefer bodies of a kind of child-like build. Before the 2010's white people barely ever wanted girls with ass either.

Not saying Harvey Weinstein caused this but it's crazy how one fucking dude can shape entire generation's hegemonic concept of beauty

You would have had to been there. America has kind of low-key always been on some pedo shit. Just pick a celebrity and search their name with the phrase "turns 18".

Then again, maybe don't go down that nightmare hole

I'm 38 and an American Cis-male. Nothing of what you said has ever been accurate for the groups of male friends or men I have spent time with.

That would be because I'm talking about our culture and you're talking about individuals that you personally know. Growing as a person can be learning how to handle critique of the world we live in without it seeming like a personal attack

One way I have grown as I've aged is that I realized it's rarely worth spending time on people who are casually condescending in their communication with strangers, so have a nice day.

You come off pretty fragile so I adjusted. Don't really know how you want people to engage with you other than just saying things you already agreed with since you were a teenager, but I'm pretty sure there's a space for that somewherew here

Kim Kardashian started the big ass preference, when women realized they didn't have to work so hard at the gym to have a perfectly fit muscular body, they could just be lazy & have a fat ass.

  1. Sir Mix-a-Lot and Rubens would also like a word.
  2. Attaining a big firm ass naturally(!!!) also requires needs plenty of work in the gym. You can be fat with a flat behind.
  3. the slim muscular physique is mostly diet, especially when it comes to visible abs.
  4. the 'perfectly fit muscular' physique you see in movies, is invariably unnatural, undernourished, under-hydrated, and unhealthy.

I saw nothing. LOL

Personally I've stayed fit by doing the exact same limited set of mind numbingly dull exercises for the past 15 years while ever so slowly increasing the weights involved. But that does not an interesting fitness youtube channel make.

Are you on the structure at the bottom or the gliders at the top.

She was probably a huge factor in it. But before her non-white Americans have always held a cultural point of being more accepting or preferring bodies that where anything less than thin. Don't really like equating not being thin to laziness though. That's some boomer shit and you really don't have to look far to see their work ethics don't scale to the amount of judgment they bestow on anyone in their immediate vicinity
