Thread where Al tells us we should like muscular booty

[Elok]

I don't think by muscular he actually means "ripped" in the bodybuilder sense, as that's just too masculine. It's more about size, and the only way to have a big ass other than being fat is to have relatively developed muscles down there.

Or you can just have a lot of fat around the booty, not so much around the waist. It's just a matter of where one's body likes to store fuel.

And whatever gifts that mohawk chick was born with are utterly neutralized by the abnormal getup. Show me a perfectly grilled porterhouse steak smothered in marmalade and pickles, I won't be interested. Also, yeah, that face is not attractive.

Abnormal getup? WTF?

Looks perfectly fine to me.

She adds that this might be a bonobo-chimp type deal where presenting booty is a signal for coitus.

that's how they do in philly.

[Thoth]

that's how they do in philly.

Shhhhh!

If you tell Alby that, he might get laid and possibly breed.

[Darius871]

Err....No. I'll leave that up to you and Alpert.

Yes, now I'm up one point in the "you're insecure," "no no, you're insecure" contest. Why do you hate gays?

[Elok]

From the BT:

"Still, there has to be other evidence of it beyond mere hypothesizing about natural selection. For example, modern black guys tend to dig bigger butts more, and black guys are genetically closer to our evolutionary forebears, so it stands to reason that the ape in all of us digs big butts. Prove me wrong."

Darius, can you cite something indicating black people are genetically closer to homo habilis et al than honkies like myself are? We're all the same number of generations away, and it's not like genetic change necessarily accelerated due to a change in location. Actually, even saying "black people do X" is a huge generalization, it's a whole continent.

I don't.

OTOH, laughing at closet cases like Alpert amuses my inner douchebag.

Whoosh. That was just some self-deprecating humor on my part, but Heraclitus may well be happy to take that up with you.

INNER douchebag?

Xpost. Okay, Darius, I pulled an Alby there.

[Thoth]

INNER douchebag?

[Al B. Sure!]

Al: after reviewing your last three pics in the babe thread, my wife speculates that your preferences may have less to do with body build than with posture; in all three pics, the women are sticking their back ends out like they're big rigs. She adds that this might be a bonobo-chimp type deal where presenting booty is a signal for coitus.

Actually, Elok, I googled imaged searched "video vixen" since I think that's the scientific term for these women and skipping all the facial pictures, I did notice a common theme in many of these pictures (if you do search it yourself, warning, there is a sexually explicit image there of a dude)

Here are just a FEW of my findings on the first page of image results:
















The preponderance of a squat or semi-squat position is interesting.

But this actually furthers my point. If your wife's hypothesis is true that means that these photographers and models are clearing keying in on it. Why are these women posing in this manner? If it were not intended to be arousing, they would not be doing it.


As an aside, all these video girls also have other commonalities besides body shape. They're all the same ethnically ambiguous tan complexion with equally ambiguous facial features that kind of look white, kind of Hispanic, kind of Black... White or dark Black video girls are kind of rare, I think. Just more reason I think these women are actually close to the universal female physical ideal.

[Al B. Sure!]

Same thing. Google image search for "_____ Magazine covers" inserting the names of some 'urban' versions of I guess something like Maxim magazine. Obviously not seeing all their covers; just ones that show up on google image search.

King Magazine doesn't appear to use this tactic very often:




Smooth seems to live by it:












Interesting. These are covers so they're the most important of all the photos shot.

[Al B. Sure!]

This just supports my case, though. These photos are shot in a specific manner. Why? Maybe because they're playing on your wife's hypothesis.

Now show some magazine covers from China. Obviously we should see those same universal characteristics.

[Al B. Sure!]

Now show some magazine covers from China. Obviously we should see those same universal characteristics.

I googled "Maxim China" because apparently Maxim magazine has a Chinese edition. There weren't many pictures and some of the given ones were in English. These were the Chinese language ones:







Same pose... same presenting style... but not as rear-oriented maybe as some (but not all) from the urban American magazines.

Maybe the photographers were going for it but there wasn't enough Asian booty there to really go all out



I note though that American Maxim covers do not usually use this tactic. Maxim covers here in the US, from what I saw, were almost all frontally-oriented. The Filipino version, however, seemed to have nothing but these presenting poses, but from a frontal perspective.
