It's kind of scary to think back on old porn from the 60's and 70's were the people were just like average then you get to the 80's, the time of hypercapitalism, and suddenly everyone's all plastic. (hexbear.net)

The porn fairy of the woods used to leave out magazines for boob men and the implants some of those women had were ludicrous. Not to mention every guy was roided out.

Glad there's been a push in society to be accepting again of people and their body types. Even if porn today still falls into the same tropes of the 80's and 90's.

That’s been the beauty standard in Latin America for a very long time. We’ve managed to avoid the hyper-skinny look, at least Central America has.

It’s weird looking back at the early 2000s when Shakira in her “hips don’t lie” music video was one of the first examples of a curvy woman to really gain mainstream popularity.

Just a reminder that Sir Mix-a-Lot both preached body positivity and passed the Bechdel Test.

He did and I guess the shakira example is very recent because there were many others before her. She’s just one of the big examples from the 2000’s
