idun Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 From the Yahoo web site today 2 Sept 2011:Having a big bumIf you regularly spend hours in the gym trying to trim inches off your thighs or bum, it may be time you stopped and showed your curves a little appreciation instead. While you may despair of your curvy rear end, research shows that fat stored in this area mops up harmful fatty acids, contains an anti-inflammatory that prevents arteries from clogging, and cuts your risk of heart disease, diabetes and stroke. If this is true, then what good news for us ladies who are, shall we say, 'shapely'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5-element Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 While it's OK to be shapely (think Matisse, Rubens, etc.) one can still aim for muscular, rather than flabby and wobbly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAiffricaine Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Did you know that in parts of Africa, a woman with a large bottom and hip definition is considered by a man a very good asset to look out for whilst prospecting for a wife. My mother's wise words when I first left home : 'Look after yourself and don't get a fat bottom my girl, or a foreigner we'll take you away for marriage' [:D] [:$] Sorry Mum ...

KathyF Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Saw that on the BBC website a while ago and sent it to my sister. We both have ample derrieres and hips and it was very encouraging to know we were of a healthy build. [:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's happening to poor old OH as well.Every winter, when I give him his flu jab, it gets increasingly difficult to find a bit of substantial thigh to put the needle into and so I am having to resort to putting it in his derrière.

idun Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 Even when I was young and fit and slim, I still had a generous derriere and I reckon it still wobbled even then. Pear shaped I was and still am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5-element Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I was going to post a photo of the "Venus kallipygos" (beautiful buttocks) except that when I looked at her just now, she didn't seem all that ample anymore. How things change...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venus_Kallipygos which reminds me of the movie "Venus noire" http://www.allocine.fr/film/fichefilm_gen_cfilm=137366.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 I never thought that the Venus bum was big, but I suppose that it always depends on what one is comparing to to start with. [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Ice-ni Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 IIRC Kate Winslet referred to the size of her own sit-upon as "I have an arse the size of Kent". I thought at the time it could have been worse, Texas or Alaska sprang to mind.Johnp.s. cannot remember the circs, whilst in calf perhaps ?
