STEATOPYGIA



DEFINITION: An unusual  accumulation of fat 
in and around the buttocks. 


This deposit of fat is not confined to the gluteal regions, but extends to the outside and front of the thighs, forming a thick layer reaching sometimes to the knee. 

In certain circles the phenomenon
is considered "a beauty" among women

This curious development constitutes a racial characteristic of the Bushmen It is specially a feature of the women, but it occurs in a less degree in the males. It is also common among the Hottentots, and has been noted among the pygmies of Central Africa. In women it is regarded among them as a beauty: it begins in infancy and is fully developed on the first pregnancy. It is often accompanied by the peculiar formation known as "the Hottentot-apron" hypertrophy*  of the nymphae –– i.e. the labia minora or lesser lips of the vulva; a pair of folds of mucous membrane on the inner side of the labia majora, united over the clitoris. 

No satisfactory explanation of these malformations has been offered. Steatopygia would seem to have been a characteristic of a race which once extended from the Gulf of Aden  to the Cape of Good Hope, of which stock Bushmen and pygmies are remnants. The discovery in the caves of the south of France of figures in ivory presenting a remarkable development of the thighs, and even the peculiar prolongation of the nymphae, has been used to support the theory that a steatopygous race once existed in Europe. 

Our first family enjoying the beauties of nature

What seems certain is that steatopygia in both sexes was fairly widespread among the early races of man. While the Bushmen and Hottentots afford the most noticeable examples of its development, it is by no means rare in other parts of Africa, and occurs even more frequently among Bastaards of the male sex than among Hottentot women.

Guess who was caught biking on the Beltway?

  2. One of my black clients says flat out, "We [meaning black women] have a different viewpoint on body image."

    Yeah, she's got a fairly big butt.

    This black client doesn't fit many stereotypes. She refers to her two sons as "My boys," and has no problem with the term "boys" used to refer to young black males.

    Now, about that video linked in a comment above....Hilarious! And true for a certain group of the population.

  3. Lest we forget:

    Standards of Beauty in the West have changed dramatically over time

    Take a gander at the nudes of Peter Paul Rubens

    Or the Porn of Pompeii for that matter.

    Zaftig Chicks and Buffalo Butts were once very much the rage.

  4. I'm going to be with 800 mostly GORGEOUS Black women today in Beverly Hills at a BLACK PASTOR'S WIVES "TEA"...had a wonderful time last year and am looking forward to do today.
    I have to admit, the caboose can be a big bigger on Black gals!
    I'm wearing a tight skirt :-)

  5. Hi, Z.

    Hope you have a lovely time. Sounds interesting.

    Please tell us if you hear anything unexpected that pertains to the election. I know not ALL black people are enamored of Obama, but too many are for decidedly racist reasons.

    Why the post?

    Oh, because I try to put up a wide variety of stuff not necessarily related to politics. I find words fascinating, as you know, and this one is a doozy. And -- I enjoy being provocative and am fighting a serious one man battle against taboos aka Political-Correctness.

    The article comes straight from The Encyclopaedia Britannica by the way in case you didn't notice.

    I never realize Victorian bustles were intended to IMITATE black women's big behinds.

    Michelle Os is getting bigger by the minute. She'll look just like Mammy, if O get's another term.

    I wish she were as LOVABLE as Mammy,don't you?

  6. So they actually came up with a medical excuse for having a FAT ASS? I'll bet that was a liberal find.

  7. Apparently, it's a GENETIC thing peculiar to certain sub-Saharan AFRICAN tribes.

    I'm frankly amazed no one has called a racist pig -- or worse -- for daring to share this -- absolutely true, scientifically accurate -- information.

    It would amuse the heck out if me if they did, because I am effing SICK and TIRED of the atmosphere of constraint PC subjects us to with its petulant, tyrannical insistence that red is not red, blue is not blue, up is not up, left is really right, truth is really a lie, and vice versa, etc.

  8. Human beings really do belong to basic somatic types that no amount of diet and exercise could ever completely overcome.

    If you're genetically predisposed to have big fat buttocks, you're going to HAVE big fat buttocks.

    So what?

    No point in moaning about things you cannot do a anything about.

    If you're short, you're NOT going to be able to get tall, etc.

  9. FT,
    Human beings really do belong to basic somatic types that no amount of diet and exercise could ever completely overcome.

    Absolutely true!

    I'm short and have the narrowest heels on the planet. So what? Well, I have trouble getting shoes to fit -- no way for me to wear most "closed" shoes. I settle for shoes that fit and are comfortable.

    That's the way life is. We do have to settle regarding certain matters that we simply can never change.

    Body types are what they are, and, yes, some characteristics are racial. After all, can't anthropologists usually identify race from skeletons?

    PS: Good point about Rubens, BTW.

  10. Hi, AOW, thanks for your comments, as always.

    I think this topic is interesting, and i might even help politically, if anyone can see that using certain words and TALKING about certain things doesn't REALLY have the power to do any harm.

    Harm comes the deliberate, planned, determination to "take OFFENSE," in order to gain control and bend others to your will.

    Suppose someone took it into his head to declare "ice cream" to be a 'racist" or a "sexist" term, and SUED all the way up to the SUPREME COURT to have it BANNED -- all public reference to the product eliminated, the product, itself, taken off the shelves, and a whole MYTHOLOGY about the hideous INSULT it has always been to have had "ice cream" in our "sick" society.

    The things we HAVE let the TROUBLEMAKERS ban have probably been less harmful than ice cream, and yet we've allowed ourselves to be buffaloed into feeling FEAR -- and expressing stern DISAPPROVAL against each other -- to use legitimate terms such as "Negro," "Colored People," and "niggardly" which means STINGY and has nothing whatsoever to do with black people, UNLESS they're penurious and uncharitable.

    With all the REAL problems -- economic, financial, logistical, maintaining productivity at affordable rates, and the ever-present threat of disease and death, we've been just NUTS to let all this BALONEY have such bearing on our lives.

    I miss calling a Miss a Miss and a Mrs. a Mrs. and I miss having the freedom to stage Opening Exercises in school each morning that involve reading from the Bible and saying the Pledge of Allegiance.

    I miss having schools exclusively for boys or exclusively for girls.

    Etc. etc. etc., and I am NOT a racist, a bigot, a mysogynist or a fool for thinking so.

    As a society we need to get a grip on REALITY and stop tying ourselves in knots over NOTHING.

  11. Well, Ducky, that IS really the ULTIMATE RACIST COMMENT from THAT side of the fence, I have to admit.

  12. your a racist piece of shit

  13. Oh come now, Anonymous! Surely you could think of something a little more original to say than that.

    If certain tribes of Negro women really do happen to have big fat asses, why is it "racist" to inform others of the fact.

    if it were a LIE, then it might possibly be "racist," since it's the simple TRUTH, you really have no legitimate right to say that.

    Besides some guys really LIKE fat asses. So what?
