It actually varies quite a bit from culture to culture.
I'm not sure how much truth there is to this, but in poorer times people tend to favour thicker women because I guess our brains take that as a sign that they have better access to food or are "richer". I forget what was said about thinner women in wealthier times, sorry. 😅
And then there's the whole thing with the media and such pushing the "ideal" body as being someone that is thin. I'm not totally sure where that began.

@AmbivalentFriability Thicker, yes. Obese, no.
I think most of us live in America, where "fat" isn't just a thicker body build, and morbid obesity is common.
