Hmmm...I'm noticing a pattern. While the image we see in rap and r&b videos have women with phat azzes, tig ol biddies, thick thighs and all that, in real life these are not the women the rappers and singers choose to be with. And by "be with", I mean, wife-up, not sleep with. Here are a couple of case studies...Diddy and Kim Porter/Cassie....Kanye and Alexis, Ryan Leslie and Chanel Iman, Nick Cannon and Selita Banks/Mariah (although Mariah's now putting on a little happy weight now). It seems as if these men prefer less curvier, modelesque women in their real lives but and leave the voluptuous women as eye candy for TV. Do the skinny and sexy women get the ring and the thick and delicious just get the D? (in celebrity world, that is)
So I asked my facebook women friends, which body type they'd prefer: video vixen or modelesque. Got no responses from women. Notta one. I once read that the most important thing in communication is to hear what isn't being said... I took the women's non-response as A) preferring neither body type but comfortable somewhere in between, or B) too proud to admit they'd prefer a body type other than what they have. I'm going with B...and I'll go ahead and weigh in on my preference. My current body type leans on the video vixen side minus, the huge azz... I think I'd prefer the model body though, that way I can eat what I want and gain a little if necessary. Being on the thicker side I find my life's too busy to put the dedication into losing weight. Gaining weight would be fun!!
Now, I did get one response on facebook... from a male...and I quote "models are too skinny vixens all the way...lol". Hmmmm...
I'm gonna go ahead and weigh in on this one. I'd rather be somewhere in between because said male facebook friend is right, models are often too skinny. But TOO voluptuous can be overwhelming and unnatural looking. Case in point: the chick in the top picture. The size of her butt looks ridiculously out of proportion compared to the rest of her frame and it's scaring me a little bit is all I'm saying.
ReplyDeletei thank God almost everyday that i am blessed with a voluptuous figure.
ReplyDeletebut i have a theory on this whole thing...
women who are curvy have a harder time getting through to men that they arent just sex-pots waiting to be f*cked. everywhere i go someone always comments on my breasts but if they werent there then wouldnt they have to find something else to comment on? my smile? my nice outfit? but no there thoughts go straight to sex and they loose out on great women this way. boney chicks have it easy, they look innocent "takemehometomama" persona and put on an innocent smile and men see them for their personalities instead of tits and ass. women's bodys are distractions, it has its pros and cons. attracting a man would be easy but finding someone who doesnt want to knock your boots first night, hard.
