America's ideal female body is a silhouette that has morphed from curvaceous to cigar-shaped in the past half-century

Shame. I (far) prefer hourglasses to sticks.

Thin is in.

Not in my neighborhood. Curves still rule. Big time.

What I think I'm reading:

Someone got a grant, and used the money to discover that standards of beauty are trending in the direction of "thin is good". AMAZING!!!

Also, this new research is finding that the Flapper image of the 1920's Jazz Age included women who were very thin, lacked curves, and were somewhat boyish. COULD IT BE TRUE???

I would like a grant, because I have a theory that professional football players are trending in the direction of "bigger is better".

This is something that will require some in depth study.

Almost every guy I know, including myself, far far far prefer a curvy woman to a stick woman. For example - Catherine Zeta Jones is far more sexy than Gweneth Paltrow. Just look at the Spanish channels. Those women are insane - curvy, sexy, smiles, laughs. You will not see some grungy, no butt, butch, liberal wafe of a girl over there!

No kidding. I"m 26 and almost 100% alone in feeling that way, among friends at least.

Thin has always been in, but now hips and butts are out too. I'd say that in 10 years people won't even want boobs on chicks because they make them look "fat". I don't think girls realize how gross it is when they're in hip huggers but are so skinny without a butt, hips or thighs. They really do like like underdeveloped children.

Oh well, more curves for me!

No Fat Chicks.

No skinny chicks who look like they were on a crack binge. What do you people see in bony girls?

There's a difference between out-and-out fat chicks and curvaceous, sexy women with some prime meat on her.

You and me both. If I want a boy I'll go down to the bathhouse.

This subject does indeed cry out for visual aids.
