This major trend that has emerged in the last few years is the idealization of two melons like humps that are near circular in nature. Now-a-days, you can even buy “butt pads”, which are designed to round out otherwise flat areas.
Curvy behinds have been a focus of beauty in rap culture for some time, perhaps first coming to surface in mainstream media with Sir-Mix-Alot’s 1992 hit “Baby Got Back”. Nicki Minaj, a popular contemporary female rapper, sampled this tune in her 2014 song “Anaconda”.
Lots of gay men have gone under the knife to achieve greater roundness with the hope of attracting male suitors. What are your thoughts on gay men and ass implants?
I blame that horrible Kardashian woman. There is actually a long, long history of people being fascinated by huge, shelf-like booties. When Kim posed with that champagne bottle, I happened on a historical piece about people through the ages who were famous/infamous for their booty. That said... I am rather opposed to altering whatever it is you're born with. It never looks right and ages terribly. I get that we want a certain look, but then earn it. Do those squats. I am at an age where my ass is deflating at a terrible speed and I do squats, but there is only so much I can do, given that being a gym bunny is of no interest to me. But I'd never inject something into my body or have implants. The idea just grosses me the hell out. To each their own, though. I get that people get to be who they want, as long as they are not hurting themselves or others.
