“Curves in All the Right Places? Living with Small Boobs and a Big Butt”

Breaking Down Attraction, Body Image, and What Really Matters to Men

The Body Type Struggle: Am I Considered Sexy or Not?

Growing up, I was never the girl with the “perfect hourglass figure.” I was the girl with a small chest, a defined waist, and thick thighs that made jeans a daily struggle. I had hips that didn’t lie, but boobs that barely spoke.

At times, I wondered — do guys actually find this body type attractive?

For the longest time, it seemed like the world had two major beauty standards:

1. The Classic Bombshell — Big boobs, tiny waist, wide hips. Think Marilyn Monroe, Pamela Anderson, or any Victoria’s Secret model.
2. The Modern “Thick” Ideal — Slim waist, thick thighs, full hips, round booty. The rise of influencers, Instagram baddies, and celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé made this look the new dream.

But where did that leave me? Was I some awkward in-between? Did men actually like small boobs and a big butt, or was it just “acceptable” but not ideal?

It took me years to figure out that attraction is way more complicated than we think. So let’s talk about it.
