Hic est questionem profundam, qua biologi, psychologiam, sociologiam et historiam tangit. Res non reducitur ad simplicem "modam", sed complexum factorum representat.

Basium biologicum: instinctus et evolutione

In fundamentis, praferentia graviorum (ut indicium sanitatis et fertilitatis) in profundam evolutionem logicam radices iterat.

• Indicium sanitatis et fertilitatis.Per maior partem historiae humanae, superfluitas ponderis erat rara, obesitas vero signum morbi. Graviora figura subconscienti signum boni metabolismi, absentia morborum chronicarum (ut diabetes aut problemata cordis) et, quod principalis, altae potentiae reproductivae. Pro virili vetere electio sicae particeps incrementum chanceum pro generatione sanitata.

• Simulacrum Juventutis.Graviora figura saepe cum Juventute associatur, Juventute vero cum pice fertilitatis. Caractera characteristica Juventutis corporis — tenuis venter, definitum proportio coxae et venteris (ut "proportio VS") — sunt signa universalia, attractiva viris in variis culturebus.

• Instinctus "qualitatis resourcerum".Antiquitate, mulier graviora et mobilis corpus percipiebatur ut plus efficax venatrix (collectrix) et custodis focis, apta ad laborum physicalis. Hic fuit indicium indirectum, ut illa in survivalentiam familiae contribuere potuisset.

Influence sociali-culturali: ideales et statvs

Biologia explicat basicae praferentias, sed expressio specifica formatur a societate.

• Media et industriia modae.Per decennia, glanci periodici, pelliculae et televisione promovunt imaginem graviorum, saepe tenuiorum, mulieris ut exemplum successus, pulchritudinis et sexualitatis. Hic exemplum sic in conscientiam populari intravit, ut ab multis "naturalis" norma receptum est.

• Statvs socialis.In societate occidentali hodierna, graviora cum qualitatibus socialibus desideratis, sicut disciplina sibi, successus et accessus ad salubrem cibi, correlatur. Inversvs, superfluitas ponderis potest (saepe iniquvs) cum laetitia, parvo venali et deficiente educatione associari. Ita, electio graviorum mulieris pro aliquibus viris potest esse subconscientivum studium statvs sui proprii eminere.

• Canon aestheticus.Omnes aetates suum exemplum pulchritudinis creant. Si in aetate Rubensii formae plenae valuerunt, symbolizantes opulentiam, hodie exemplum corporis athletic et firmi dominatur, symbolizans vitam activam et successum.

Causes individuali-psychologici

besides common trends, there are also personal motives.

• gustus formatus experientia. Prima amoris, influentia amicorum, popularis in Juventute imaginis pellicularum — all this forms personal aesthetic preferences of man.

• subjective perception of health. Many men directly associate graviora with physical activity and health, wishing to see next partner who can share their lifestyle — walks, sports, travels.

• aesthetic pleasure. Cannot ignore and simple visual perception. Specific proportions and lines of graviora figure can cause in specific person feeling of harmony and aesthetic pleasure, which is difficult to describe logically.

It is important to emphasize: in modern world, these conceptions are reinterpreted. Increasingly widespread is the movement bodipositiva, which propagates acceptance of diversity of body types and beauty in any forms and sizes. More and more men begin to value in woman not only appearance, but also confidence in oneself, intelligence, sense of humor and personal qualities, understanding that true attractiveness is much wider and more complex than just graviora.
