What do guys in togas, fighter jets, and a group of “Mad Men” all have in common? The answer is the same as what athletes Reggie Bush, Kris Humphries, and singer Ray J all swooned over once upon a time.
If you haven’t already guessed it, the answer is CURVES! Kim Kardashian’s suitors clearly had a thing for a woman with a lot of assets, but they weren’t the only ones. Curvaceous women are in style, but many might not know that they never left! Men have drooled over women with a little meat on their bones over many different eras.
There are various paintings of the naked woman’s fleshy body depicting Greek mythology. I’m talking about chicks with hips, thighs, and butts. In fact, ancient Greeks adored the curves on a woman. They believed that the perfect woman’s body resembled that of a jar. This idea was later adapted as the “hour-glass shape.”
Fast forward a few centuries and curvy women still embodied ideal sex appeal! During World War II, young men in the service would paint sultry pictures of pin-up bombshells alongside their aircrafts.
If you’re still not convinced, take for example the highly acclaimed show “Mad Men” that airs on AMC. According to Tatler magazine, Matthew Weiner, the “Mad Men” creator encourages the actresses of the show to actually avoid going to the gym in order to maintain their sexy curves! January Jones, who is one of the actresses of the “Mad Men” cast, obeys Weiner’s request happily.
“It’s OK to have curves and be a woman,” Jones states in Tatler. “I wish more women would realize that’s what men like!”
