I remember growing up seeing commercials or TV shows with women avoiding certain clothing because it made thier butts looks big (apparently a bad thing). Women would also ask "does this make my butt look big" and the "correct" answer would be no.
Baby Got Back came out in 1992, but the big butt hate (as far as I remember) went throughout the 90s.
So what made big butts attractive to [most] everyone and when did it happen?
OK
For those saying "forever", if you're over 40 did the women in your life always want a big butt?
I can live with this answer.
To all you "forever" people: you must be young.
Well Im a Black African so a big ass has always and I mean always been seen as attractive......I spent quite a bit of my youth in South Africa and Botswana still some of the most aesthetically pleasing woman to look at even after living all over the world
Back home there was even a stupid joke about ATMs (African Trade Marks)......with the internet this saying transformed into something else entirely but still related to Ass......you know what it is.
Without coming off as racist, but when I was younger we even used to make fun of white girls who had flat asses, my less cultured friends still get a good chuckle from looking at white girls without ass.
When white people discovered twerking, and we had the flattest asses giving it their all, my african circle of friends was in frikken comedy heaven.
For people of color, there hasnt been a change or sudden love of da booty, its white people who seemingly just discovered that booty is the business.
So this thread should probably be asking the none-poc when ass became all dad.
P.S I know this thread is about society as a whole, but if the community you live in or culture you are part of was already respecting the booty, its hard to tell when those outside the culture started to accept it.
Im still not sure if just us who enjoy the booty or if it is a general consensus, because for me ass has always been a thing, and I still see flat ass white girls all over the place being said to have "amazing bodies" so I assume that flatter figure is what those outside of our culture enjoy.
