Likewise, before adequate nutrition was available, being thicker was considered attractive because it signified wealth/prosperity/being able to bear children (in cis womens' case), then after industrialized food production made it quite cheap, it suddenly became about having the type of perfectly sculpted body only a personal trainer and/or cosmetic surgery could get you.
As it turns out, there are no 'ugly' people, only poor people.
It's increasingly considered attractive as it is increasingly the norm, too. Attraction, especially at the mass scale as opposed to the individual, is interesting in how it comes in waves.
20 years ago, almost no one would try to rock a beard, for instance.
You saying being in good physical shape or at least not overweight is increasingly the norm?
Have you ever seen any statistics about anything? 🤨
No I'm saying the exact opposite of that. Not sure that came across clearly.
So you mean it became increasingly thought of as attractive as it became decreasingly the norm? Makes sense tbh
No I mean that in the past 20 years or so, a reframing around the "dad bod" and "thicc women" has occurred largely because larger bodies are increasingly the norm.
Also I should stop firing off one-line comments before bed, but that's neither here nor there
