Why do men like big butts and curvier women?

Opinions from Answers. Com contributors about curvy women: I'm 22 and most guys around my age could care less about a Woman with wider hips being more capable of child bearing! The idea is foolish and sounds like someone took that from a high school psych textbook.

I like big butts because their very attractive, arousing, and sexy. Keep in mind that by no means does curvy mean obese, there's a BIG difference. Honestly I will take a curvy woman over a stick figure any day.It's sad Woman feel like they need to lose their hips or their butt.

What for? Thick hips and a big butt even on a slim girl is hot.It's 50/50 with boobs and butts to Men. There are the shallow Men that are grossed out by big butts and they are seriously misguided and just owned by the mainstream media's love for twig models.

There are plenty of butt Men out there and it has NOTHING to do with kids.It's just a preference, just like wanting a blonde or brunette Generally speaking, curves to a male subconscious, coincide with a woman's ability to conceive children. A woman with wider hips and bigger breasts (to a male subconscious), would be more capable in ways of child bearing and breast feeding than say, a super slim streamlined woman with a smaller chest. This is not so for every man, though it is an accepted thesis.

Everyone has a different vision of beauty, which may only be skin deep. The subconscious is a wild abyss we are just barely beginning to pioneer My boyfriend says he likes grabbing me, especially my huge butt which runs in the family as well as big breasts. Men just like the pleasure of grabbing on to something!

The majority of men like smaller women with smaller waists and hips, curves are sexy but you can't disguise an overweight woman I think girls look better when they are of a smaller size but tall with small curves not too curvy I'm not walking down the street holding hands with anyone that can pass as a teenage boy! I'm attracted to curvy women because well... they look like women! Size 8 and 10 girls are the sexiest they work out you don't want to be with someone who doesn't take care of their bodies.

Curvy is fat which means they don't work out. Fat is not attractive it is unsightly Because that's how our instincts have programmed us! All those fashions magazines and clothes horses (girls) thinking men find them attractive and the 'average' woman thinking they have to compete is simply not true for most of us guys.It's all about proportion!

You can be petite but curvy and voluptuous, or big and tall but curvy and voluptuous. BIG doesn't necessarily mean the girl is obese I'm a small girl(5'0") but am blessed with my body being proportioned perfectly in the breast and butt area. I have a 34" bust, 24" waist, and 36" around the hips.

I am small but guys are attracted to the hourglass figure. Not all men are this way. But its how a woman carries herself that a major factor.

Men are just not that stereotypically shallow From an "hourglass woman". I am 5'5", or 1.67m tall, I basically have what my friends' tease me as the "Ghetto/J-Lo butt". I'm considerably endowed, have a flat stomach, but quite a curvaceous butt.

Basically I'll fill out jeans really good. Besides the point, I really think that besides the instinctual, subconscious *want to procreate with a woman with wide 'child-bearing' hips.' Men simply like women with curves because that's what makes them women! Only young girls should be flat and thin straight up and down, because they haven't yet developed breasts and begun puberty.

Curves are what make a woman, but you can go too far in either direction, obese is out and so is the twiggy look Not all men do. I am a man, and I definitely do not like large butts. As for the curvy part, I like curvy.

But I probably like thin better. I really don't care for large butts! Men have a natural instinct to reproduce.

Curvy women, in a sense, are made to 'bear more children.'. So, I guess they are naturally drawn to heavier women. Also, some may say they like thin girls, but not the anorexic look They are more confident in themselves the better lovers they make no matter what shape they are Not all men do.

Some like slim, sexy girls Some men like curvy women because it is comfortable for them, soft and cushioned. It feels better to them when they have sex because they have more to push up against, but some men also like thin women too. It all depends on what the man likes Preferences in the female form change throughout time and per social influences.

What may be desirable today may not be desirable 20 years from now Men are generally more attracted to a woman that can fill out a dress and make it look good. If you are too thin then it isn't going to fit right, but that doesn't mean you can't be sexy and curves are in Self confident men love to look at all women and enjoyed some beauty in each. I don't think it has anything to do with child bearing at all.

Men simply have to be attracted to a woman and they can be thin, medium or large women. I also think it's a combination of first physical attractiveness (beauty is in the eye of the beholder) and then personality. If one or the other is lacking (the woman doesn't have to be a raving beauty, but is beautiful in the eyes of her mate) then it all comes together.In the 17 - 18th century women use to bind their breasts because men found this attractive, but a very small waist was a real turn-on for men and women would corset themselves often causing "the vapors" (basically breathing problems from the tight corset and thus fainting.

) They would even have a bottom rib removed in some cases! Then in the 20's the flapper era where things really got randy and the dresses got shorter, more leg was showing, but not much cleavage. The dresses were looser and not showing any curves and it was meant to be this way.

It wasn't until Jean Harlow came on the scene things started to change. In the 40's came the stream-lined ladies with sleek and classic styles and finally in the 50s came the buxom beauties such as Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield to name a few.In the 1960s "Twiggy" (almost anorexic) hit the scene and girls were trying to imitate her. The mid to late 60s basically let it all hang out (can you dig it) and things were just a flappin' and I don't mean clothes!

Things settled down and back to the thinner girls (brought on by anorexic looking models) and I'm sorry to say gals, but right now and on the news just yesterday it stated that thin is going out and buxom is back once more! It just keeps going around and around in a circle and it's all about fashion and nothing else! It is ridiculous to think that us men like curvy woman with big butts because they can bear children easier.

We don't want to hear about woman giving birth. The question is why men like curvy woman with big butts. I've had curves since I was 13 years old, and I think most men like curvier women is because they are the complete opposite of masculine I believe this is because men enjoy their little "fantasies at night" about very beautiful women.

That would be a definition for beautiful women: the hourglass body, but not all men like that body. Some may enjoy a thin and a bit flat woman. Or maybe a thin and busty woman.

It all depends on what type of person that man is From one males point of view I love a thick woman with a large butt. Not all men find it attractive, but I sure do. The first person to answer made a great point by saying: "....Besides the point, I really think that besides the instinctual, subconscious *want to procreate with a woman with wide 'child-bearing' hips*, men simply like women with curves because that's what makes them women!

" Definitely, 'child-bearing' hips are tantalizing and so womanly! Aside from that, here's one more slightly naughty detail to consider: One of the best sexual positions there is is 'Doggy-style,' and and it a well rounded butt feels good. I can't say enough good things about ladies and their big butts I am 18 year old male and I too love a big butt, but its not all about sex.

I like to hold a girl and I do so around the waist. I don't want to have to hold my arms in place to hold a girl. My girlfriend is well endowed with a nice butt and I love it.

It's something to hold onto and something to admire, not to mention the metaphorical kissing From a black males point of view ... 'Give the bones to the dogs, give the meat to the men! I, as a 6'1, 225 muscular male, do not like to have sex with a woman. A big man like me has to have a curvier woman.

It's encoded into our genes. I'm sure you'll find a boy that likes no matter what your figure looks like I'm a male, 5'10'' and 140 or so and I must admit I need to have a girl that's around my size so I don't feel like I'm hurting her. My girlfriend's about 5'8'' and 110-120 or so and she's perfect.

She can keep up and I have something to hold onto and she can move me around as much as I can her. I love her curves . I think guys like perfect and in between most of the time.

It has to be the Tinkerbell syndrome. A girls chest, waist, hips and thighs are probably the sexiest parts below the neck. Very thin girls I have found attractive, I think it was probably because they were so pretty.

I can't take my eyes off the curvier girls body though, no matter how pretty they are I'm a girl and pretty thin and 5' 4" and weigh 100 lbs. , but I'm not completely flat. My boyfriend is about two or three inches taller than I am and he weighs about 160 lbs.

, and what he likes in girls are hips and chest (naturally), but guys have always liked breasts simply to look at. I don't have a big butt, but it's not what you'd call nonexistent, but even skinny girls can have curves (small, but they're there) I prefer skinny girls with average small breasts I think it has to do with culture. If a person is of Northern European stock, that person will prefer a thin stick figure lady, or small boyish prepubescent look on a lady (why?

I do not know). If the person is of the Mediterranean (Italian, Spanish, Greek, middle eastern, also African, African American stock they tend to have a preference for women with an hour glass big butt look. Asian men tend to prefer the little girl look.

Just look at the art work and the artistic artifacts, particularly when the goddesses are depicted. I myself have a preference for a tall girl with an hour glass figure and a big butt. It is simply just a preference To claim that different races like different things in a woman is presumptuous.

Of course we've all hear of the stereotype that every black man likes the 'ghetto booty' but that probably isn't even the case. Same as 'Northern European stock' who prefer the 'lollypop' figure on girls, I don't think there is any cultural reason why men like certain girls, its stereotyping simple as. I'm English, 6ft 2", and well built my self and prefer the curvier woman for the reason as many people have pointed out; its the opposite of masculine.

Prity simple when you think about it, and I reckon if you asked all kinds of people they would give you all different answers. There is no one type of woman all men like, altough I will admit we are living in a body focused era so the female form has become increasingly more fundamental than in previous times. Sometimes it has something to do with culture cause thank god I'm African American and Haitian and not only Indian and Arab/native American.

I look more Indian and some people say you are the only Indian I know with the biggest hips and butt ever Clearly it depends on the person, but I would say that generally guys like curvy women, with good sized butts and breasts, and thin waists. Please not that curvy DOES NOT mean fat, and a fat person probably would not be considered curvy. For example, a woman with a 24" waist and considerably larger hips and breasts will be considered much sexier than a girl with a the same size waist and only slightly larger hips/breasts I think guys prefer curvier you don't have to be huge to be curvy like me.

I weight about 135 and my measurements are 36- 19-38. Its seems more attractive and all the guys are like magnets. Sometimes they worship my body and I am very exotic looking.

But its important it just mean that you care about your body. Everyone says how nobody has my body but I lost the weight keep it healthy and get all the guys to turn around and glance all the time. Even girls and girlfriends were jealous cause I got the looks and the body which I workout all the time so sometime hard work gets you the body of your dreams the more I work out and eat the bigger my breast and hips/butt gets.

And you do not need surgery to fix your body is better to be natural. Just appreciate the way you're created because not everyone have the chance to even live They just like to keep an eye to a very nice and in born art of nature I am really curvy as well, but my waist is definitely not as small as yours is. I am 41-29-40 and I have the worst time getting clothes that fit my hourglass shape.

I can't imagine what shopping for you is like. I basically have switched to entirely empire-cut stuff because otherwise I look like an obese person...and with 21% body fat, that's not really probable I personally like quite thin women with smaller breasts...its really about personal preference I am a bigger, curvy girl (don't know the measurements off hand, but 38DD, size 18 jeans, and a small waist). I don't think men are so much into the "big butts & curvier women" just by themselves.

I think its confidence that attracts them. Any of the guys iv dated/been involved with have never said anything about me being a heavy girl, but all of them comment on jeans that hug my ass and a shirt showing off enough to ample amounts of cleavage. I think its more about how comfortable and confident a girl is about her body.

I know girls who are flatter then wooden planks, girls that are shaped like apples, pears and coke bottles. But none of the girls I know, no matter the shape, have good relationships or sex lives, if they are not at least semi-comfortable in their own skin I prefer very slim, non-curvy women, and I always have. Don't get caught up in the thinking that all men like one thing.

There's someone out there who finds you attractive just the way you are You can be both. I think men prefer curves because they are feminine, which is the opposite of masculine. Men like women that are shaped like women, as opposed to women who are shaped like men.

Women naturally have wider hips than men, thus giving us the ability to birth children, as well as giving us curves. Women also have mammary glands in their breasts, thus giving them the ability to feed the children they give birth to, as well as giving us curves. Being curvy doesn't mean you have to be overweight, not even slightly.

There is a difference between curves and rolls. Rolls can actually hide a woman's curves Someone said earlier that she has a body that makes guys turn their necks and stare. My looks do the same thing to women.

I call it Beautiful Person Syndrome.It's where a woman or a man looks so good that everyone in close view has some level of entrancement going on within him or her towards the beauty. I've noticed that many people have a tendency to show what they are thinking without care or a sense of embarrassment. If a man (a lot of women, too, I'm finding) does act, most of the time he (or she) is rude and appears unpleasant by not being considerate of a woman (or man's) right to just "be".

Yes, she looks great and you are attracted to her because she has so much, but that's a person with feelings, morals, and different respects than you at the end of the day. You don't know what kind of day this person.... this beauty had. Perhaps their mother just died, or their son is in hospital, or they lost a job and can't pay the rent next month.No, people don't care they just want to stare!

"She got such a nice big butt" some men say things like this so loud in the open that it's appalling to me. For women approaching a man you could say, " hello how do you like the weather today?" and continue the conversation from there. I know what you women are thinking...."If I approach him he's going to think I'm fast" etc. If you approach in a flaunting manner, bending over in front of him, and all that.... then you will be seen as fast or whatever.

If you greet a man like a polite person with genuinely modest dating interest and add some sexiness and flare of personality (not body parts), he has no choice but to take the lead from there. Some men need a woman to hop out of that box (omg I cant go and talk to him) and seize the things you want out of life on your own terms. Don't put on a front either!

It shows you are scared about something and that makes you look weak. Stop being scared of men. As Steve Harvey said ... a woman has a lot of power when she acts more like a man.

The key is not to act like a stupid man. Do it just the way you would like to be approached by a handsome man. It will work for you if you have confidence.

Oh and have fun. It's inconsiderate when done wrongly. I love women with a passion, a woman that is mature in dating.

I also like a woman with beautifully thick proportions who is confident and knows how to handle herself. Especially older women. I think women with great shapes kinda have fun with their sexuality more than the average slim woman does.

A curvy woman's butt can kinda take on a life of its own. Beauty in motion. Why do some men like big butts and curvier women?

Because some of us just do! Men have high testosterone while women usually have high estrogen. The hormones of the man are attracted to that of a woman with high estrogen.

Now, estrogen gives women curves, butt, thighs, breasts, hips. So the man will be more attracted to the women with the high estrogen opposed to the women with a high level of male hormone (testosterone).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
