you've picked two of the most gorgeous women in the world....heidi klum and laeticia casta (btw, laeticia gave birth a few months ago). heidi doesn't have feminine hips, take a good look at some of her photos, on the other hand casta is very womanly.

It's Emme. She does a fashion show (or used to) for E!

I've been lurking since before the 2000 election...this seems as good a place as any to begin to FReep...imo the key is to be accepting with yourself, have a clear conscience and a nice smile, and you will be attractive to others...god bless...

Her name is Emme.....beautifully full figured....:-)

I am not thin. I am 5' 6" and wear a size 12. I have been that size since my mid-twenties. I never had a problem attracting men. I married a wonderful guy who likes curves. After my son was born, I ballooned to a size 16. I lost that weight and have stayed at size 12 since then. A girlfriend (size 4!) tried to encourage me to go to a size 8. I told her that I didn't consider a 12 to be an extra large size. (I guess that everything is relative.) My doctor says that I am not obese, so why should I try in my mid-forties to be the size that I was at age 16? I exercise and feel OK about myself. I admire slender women, but have no desire to whittle myself down to their size. I like to cook and hate to diet. Thank goodness, my husband loves me just the way that I am.

My size 4 girlfriend is always on some new diet because her husband makes snide comments about the size of her behind!!! Frankly, I think that she is perfect in that department and can not fathom why he thinks otherwise. He insults her in front of people at parties by complaining about the amount of food that she is eating! It is embarrassing--especially since most people view his wife as having a very slender figure! My husband and I think that he is a jerk...

ROFL!!!!!!!!

Hmmmmm, where have i heard this before?? LOL

[MadRobotArtist]

Yes, I too like boobs. Which is why skinny women will never be that appealing. Fake boobs are like a card trick, sure they look good, but would you really want to nibble on them?

Now I realize that it probably puts me in the perv category, but if you see my wife, you know why she has my undivided attention when she talks to me. I think her eyes are blue?

I always had a thing for a built woman. I call it "duck butter". Now my ideal, is Jennifer Tilly. When you see one wearing a size 12 and in their 20's, keep an eye them. I have known some to hit the size 20's after they got into their late 40's. That's the problem. Plus, I don't want a woman weighing more than me.

That's a little too much for me. How about this babe,

Here's something amusing that I think we'll all appreciate, a spoof on the Backstreet Boys' "I Want It That Way":

Another curvaceous woman, SALMA HAYEK.

On that note (cough), I dunno about the rest of you guys, but I also like curvy women's (cough) posterior.
