Men lusting for less curves

The Age ^ | 12/20/2002

Men's taste in women has changed dramatically over the past half-century, shifting away from girls with curves and big breasts towards the androgynous and the skinny.

The assertion comes from two psychoanalysts who pored over every Playboy from December 1953 and calculated the body mass index of every centrefold. Over 577 issues, the models became taller and their waist increased, while their hips became narrower and their bust became smaller. If Playboy is any guide, the needle on the male sexual compass has switched from Marilyn Monroe to Eva Herzigova, the scientists say.

I know where Hesse is, I think we ruled it when when the Limies adopted an alien king. The Red Hair comes comes from the Germans.

If the media offers 99.999% stick women and two or three token fat women like Rosie O'Donut and that Manheim skiff, what do you expect to happen?

There's always Kate Winslet. She's my favorite.

My idea of working out is raising my arm to get the barmaid to bring me another pint of Guinness.

Now there's an "exercise program" any man can endorse. Nothing like a good beer AND a good woman!

[Long Cut]

How about Raquel??

I find it difficult to believe that women with such a form as this will EVER go out of "style", so long as human males have the same instincts and hormonal makeup.

I have some really good friends from Cork - the only thing wrong with them was they liked to drink Murphy's instead of Guinness.
