Those curves are making cardiologists smile.
A new study out of Oxford University in England found women with "pear-shaped" figures -- ample extra padding around the hips, buttocks and thighs -- are actually at a lower risk for heart and metabolic diseases.
"It is shape that matters and where the fat gathers," said Oxford's Dr. Konstantinos Manolopoulos, explaining that fat stored on the hips and in the rear absorb harmful fatty acids and further prevent arteries from clogging.
"Fat around the hips and thighs is good for you, but around the tummy is bad," he told BBC News, noting that the proverbial "spare tire" around the belly leads to higher incidences of heart disease.

New meaning to the old...
Wife tells husband she wishes she had bigger breasts...
Husband says “Rub them with toilet paper couple of times a day.”
Wife: “How will that help?”
Husband “Don’t really know, but you been rubbing your a$$ with toilet paper for years, and look at the size of it”
He SHOULD be up and around in a couple of days....

The buttocks, being muscle, can stay firm with proper exercise throughout life.
Most people quit exercising and allow senescence and gravity to take over.
Others pull a Raquel Welch.

Some women think their ass is too small.
Some women think their ass is too big.
Some women love him just the way he is.

Hear, hear!
The Rubenesque type happens to be my personal favorite and, I’m sure, the favorite of a lot of other men if they would be honest about it.
To me, there is nothing sexier than a voluptuous woman who enjoys good food and some adult beverages.
Put me with a lady like that and I will be one happy s.o.b.!

I’ve never found anything quite as enjoyable as “rockin’” with a “hippy” woman!
But that’s just me - one of those “demented right-wingers” whose taste is WAY out of step with the human clothes hangers that the homo clothing designers of Europe and America try to convince us represent feminine beauty.
