Different cultural beliefs and values

I’d say less race and more culture lowkey. I’m no anthropologist but from what I’ve seen it can tie back to cultural values (ex. Being rich=having food = chubby beauty standard in the west, but once that figure was associated with slaves, it was also associated with sin and gluttony, and a thinner figure came into vogue). Trends play into it too, but I find those harder to quantify

think abt it. white and asian men like thin small girls, black men like thick/chubby girls, hispanic men like short curvy girls. and it kind of plays a role in the environment but it’s mostly race

It’s not tho that’s just blatant stereotyping I’ve met more white men who are interested in bigger gals than black men

a stereotype is an assumption, this isn’t an assumption bc it’s true. just because YOUVE seen it doesn’t mean its a fact.

Except it’s not a fucking fact preference comes down to the individual and culture has more to do with beauty standards than race it’s not that hard to understand

it’s not a bias if it’s proven to be true. here is an article i’m referencing. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2698977/
