Curves
Allegedly, many guys prefer a body type that includes a low waist to hip measurement. Nothing new in that: a slim-waisted girl with hips and boobs will always catch your eye.
But there's more subtlety to attraction than just curves, and women without that specific fat/bone/muscle configuration seem to understand that their attraction might lie elsewhere too. Sure, the hour-glass might catch my eye initially, but it's so fleeting as to be almost irrelevant.
Yes, we are superficial animals...superficially. The layers of attraction are deep enough - and sufficiently abstract - that Jessica Rabbit is only a minor distraction, deemed valuable only by perceived cultural norms. Gosh, I'm sounding like some awful psych professor.
Pfft. Cultural norms indeed.
My point is that attraction is SO individual as to be beyond easy characterization, an excellent state of affairs. Curves are TOTALLY in the eye of the beholder.
Bottoms Up, Attractors.

As someone with small hips (but, as I've been told, a very nice booty), I'm very glad to hear that!
It's true those of us without a low waist-to-hip ratio generally understand that our attraction lies elsewhere (boobs, in my case), but I think that if we care about attracting men, we generally still dress in such a way as to approach that ideal as much as possible (not meaning skimpily, necessarily, but to create the illusion of a smaller waist, etc.).
You know Wombie, this is funny. I was thinking about this very same conversation we had one night , just yesterday:)
Oops , published under the wrong account, that's enigma , NOT tad. LOL
Your comment spawned a post, Miss Licious. Thanks!
Enigma/Tad you interesting person you. I guess you can see things from both the make AND the female side, right?
Wow, very cool--thank YOU, Wombat!
