Chinese Butts

doll said - "...Chinese women (who can feel a stigma about being slim butted)..."
Really? I never thought that would be the case.
I've heard of Chinese women complaining about having short legs but never about having a small butt.
The Chinese have a long recorded history of their culture and accomplishments.
Why would they feel any stigma over a phenotypical trait that doesn't seem to be inherent in their region?

Maybe it's because Pear Shaped Women seem to be better protected against Type 2 Diabetes.

And with the introduction of the American Diet into so many cultures, that protection seems to be more and more necessary.

Butt (sic) this trend doesn't seem to be endemic to the Chinese women.
Big butts are in (So long as it doesn't come with a matching gut.).
