We guys prefer: full bosom, tiny waist, long legs on a woman. Who ordained, who prescribed that this should be so?

There is a certain waist-to-hip ratio which is a universal baseline for attractiveness, across all cultures. It appears to be wired in, presumably for reasons related to reproduction and survival. Breast size and other attributes seem to vary much more with cultures and fashions.

I like a land/woman who is (over)flowing with milk and honey. The milk comes from the breasts and shows that gives greatly that sustains the next generation. And she has words that flow like the honey of kindness and respect.

Her wide hips tells me she can bear children more easily than women without them.

You may be talking about the research done by Dr Devendra Singh. He says there's a positive correlation between optimum female reproductive health, and a low waist-to-hip ratio, with optimum being around 0.70
