According to fat feminist's standards, a "curvy" 1950s pin-up model would have been skinny.

These fat degenerate fucks were never considered to be attractive.

What is the point of this thread? reddit-tier "fat hate?" Why would you post this on the history board?

>being skinny start being seen as attractive?

Being 'skinny' has never been considered mainstream attractive - a slender figure with decent curves ass, hips, waist etc yes but not 'skinny'.

Skinny is gross and has the name implies the person looks just skin and bones.

Reddit would defend fat pe- I mean "body positive" people.

It has to do with human nature and thought. Stuff about self-worth and improving oneself.

What a coincidence.

This reminds me of a thread from few months ago where the debate was centered about body weight of women and how they were perceived through history.

Thread eventually evolved into delusional fatty spouting the usual fat acceptance bs

Where does this meme that reddit is a super left SJW site come from?

There was some retarded site-wide drama a while back because the subreddit for hating fat people was banned.

The children on /b/ need something to hate so they invented the reddit SJW bogeyman.

Yeah, wonder where exactly the idea reddit is leftie comes from

The purge. When Reddit deleted a bunch of subreddits deemed too "offensive". A lot of subreddits such as fat people hate which had a substantial number of users got deleted.

Reddit is literally nothing but people spouting the word cunt and fatty 24/7. Just look at the sub number of the SJW subs and compare them to everything else.

>When did being skinny start being seen as attractive

Never. Skinny became a standard for the model (etc) industry at some point. Probably because the main consumer of those things are straight women. What straight women see as a beautiful woman is quite different than what straight men see as beautiful.

Holy shit there are women on /his/

While we're shitposting, I'm pretty sure the "hyper skinny" thread started after Audley Hepburn. Manufacturers started realizing they could get away with using less cloth (ie spend less money) once the public had been trained to accept 2pooky skellingtons as attractive (Marilyn Monroe was actually pretty chunky) and this became the norm because it protects manufacturing costs for the fashion industry to cater only to skinny people

Not even trolling, if the fashion industry adjusted to the size of modern women it would tank the industry overnight. Not saying fatter or thinner is better, but they definitely painted themselves into a corner by seeking out that hyper skinny market, historically.
