Do All Asians Have Flat Butts?

Asian butt Do All Asians Have Flat Butts?

I like big butts and I can not lie

You other brothers can’t deny

- SIR MIX-A-LOT, “Baby Got Back”

Every time I hear those lyrics, I cringe. Why? Because I admit that I have a flat butt. Please, no jokes. I’m a little sensitive about it. Once I asked an ex-girlfriend if she thought I had a nice ass and she said I had a wonderful personality. I should have known then that the relationship was doomed.

You’re probably saying, “Women don’t care if men have big butts.” But according to Yahoo! Answer!, which knows everything, women do.

Do women Like men with Big Butts?? Do women like tighter pants on men? Do women find men with big butts attractive ??

Im 19 a male I have a big butt and big thighs and pants don’t fit me right so sometimes I buy them a little baggy. I play sports and workout alot I think i got it doing squats all the time in highschool trying to increase my vertical leap. Yesterday at work I wore some tighter pants then usual because the rest were dirty and my female co workers said I had a nice butt.

Also should I start wearing fitted jeans or maybe skinny jeans to show it more or wear looser not to show as much??

The best answer, chosen by the readers was:

hey! girls like guys with big butts but big thighs are a turn-off……so to hide them i think baggy and loose-fitted pants are suitable….never wear skinny ones(they’ll look horrible!)

go on…….. impress girls….lol!!!!

And I’d like to note that the following answer had 0 votes:

women do not look at the butt size its all about the overall personality , its the way you dress the way you talk. and when its about the pants , loose pants go better , please avoid tight pants. they will just make u look bigger.

And here’s a choice quote I found on a forum that encapsulates everything I’m saying:

… guys with a butt look better than guys with no butt at all.. LOL I mean there are some asian guys who have no butt and i’m like damn wheres the cushion to grab when your pissed off.. LOLxD hahahahhaa yeah so i would prefer a guy with butt.

To be fair, according to this very “scientific” poll I found on the Internet butt size doesn’t matter but how trust worthy could a survey with less than 200 votes be?

guys butt survey Do All Asians Have Flat Butts?

Since I’ve already written about Asian vaginas, breasts, and penises , I figured it was time to explore the world of Asian butts. (~_^) The question I’m dying to know is: Do all Asians have flat butts like me?

First, there is a (racist) term for the stereotype: Asian Booty Disease (ABD). According to Urban Dictionary, ABD is “a complication that effects 99.7% of the Asian population. It is usually noted at the age of 15 by young Asian girls who try to shake their ass like black girls in music videos seen on BET and MTV.”

But is there really a correlation between butt size and race? The first place I searched was Wikipedia to see what they had to say:

Certain physical dispositions of the buttocks—particularly size—are sometimes identified, controversially, as a racial characteristic. The most famous intersection of racism and buttocks may be the case of Saartjie Baartman, the so-called Hottentot Venus.

There wasn’t a lot of information out there. Truth be told, there was NO reputable source that I could find. But there were tons of unreputable sources. The most “scientific” of those was the following quote I found:

The ethnographic record {e.g., A French Army Surgeon (1898/1972), a 30-year specialist in genitourinary diseases} makes reference to numerous anatomical distinctions which show a similar pattern of whites being between blacks and Orientals. These include the placement of female genitals (Orientals front and high; blacks back and low); angle and texture of erection (Orientals parallel to body and stiff, blacks at right angles to body and flexible); salient buttocks, breasts, and muscularity (Orientals least, blacks most); and size of genitalia (Orientals smallest, blacks largest).

There were some “theories” as to why Asians have small/flatt butts. My favorite is one that “sounds” scientific but is just a wild guess by an anonymous Internet user:

asian men may have preferred to reproduce with asian women who were more petite (e.g. smaller butts).

african men may have preferred to reproduce with african women who were bigger, more muscle (e.g. bigger buts)

therefore, over generations, those with bigger (asians)/ smaller (africans) died out and the ones with preferred phenotypes (i.e. smaller/bigger buts and bone structures) evolved.

Are these people right? Is the stereotype correct? Of course not. These people are ignorant and have no idea what they are talking about. This is just another stupid stereotype that is perpetuated by (both Asians and non-Asians alike). And that similar to breasts, vaginas, and penises there is NO correlation between race and size. Like those body parts, there is a wide variation of butt sizes in all races. So no one race has a monopoly on any particular butt size.

And ultimately, who cares? Butts are biologically there for us to defecate. Size doesn’t help either way in defecating. (And I should also note that penises are meant for urinating and for inseminating, vaginas are meant to give birth, and breasts are meant to provide food for off-spring).

There are people out there who are trying to fight the stereotype. For example, Jeffery Mingo of Homewood, IL created a list on Amazon of examples of “nice” Asian butts in movies. According to Jeffery, “Asian male butts don’t get a fair shake. They can be hot, just like men’s butts of any other races. So notice their butts and enjoy!” Here is his list. (Author’s note: I’ve only seen a few of the movies on the list so I can’t vouch that there are nice Asian butts in the movies but why would anyone make up a fake list?)

Finally, I want to end this “article” on an upbeat note. For those buttless people like me, all is not lost. According to this study, butt size isn’t all that significant in mate selection. (Wait could Yahoo Answers! be wrong?)

“Buttocks size, however, does not seem to play a significant role in determining female physical attractiveness.” (Furnham, et al. 2007)

And if you’re still feeling a little insecure, there are butt jeans.Which according to this reviewer her “butt finally doesn’t look concave anymore lol.”

And if you’re really really really desperate, then you can always get butt implants. But it’d be much easier to accept your butt as it is and find someone who will like you for your wonderful personality.

    Mine is not big as I wanted it, but I have some confidence about gluteal muscles. Years of riding bicycle, judo and a little of gymnastics can help a lot.

  • IsaacKojima

    And I recomend Brazillian jeans. http://www.bestbrazilianjeans.com/

    Myth: untrue.

    Proof: my ass.

    It’s sad though cuz I can’t find any jeans that fit right…I have a huge ass and smaller thighs so the jeans I find end up being super tight around my butt and baggy around my legs -_-

    I’ve seen Asian guys with nice asses ;) I’m particular to the Chris Pontius type of gluteal goodness. A wonderful hybrid of fat and muscle:http://youtu.be/vVypUBJ8AVo(I do love him because he also has a cute face and a wicked sexy sense of humor)

    Granted, I do have a semi-flat booty, but no man ever pays attention to my butt because all they see are my ginormous DD lady lumps :P

    Disclaimer:

    I did no research, I just wrote my personal experience with most other nationalities I’ve encountered while visiting other countries on either vacations or business-trips, or scenes from the Pop.

  • VănMinhNguyễn

    What I’ve seen most Han-Chinese (excl. HongKong, TaiWan adn MaCao) and North-Koreans, Yes!

    but Japan, South-Korea and South-East-Asia don’t follow the stereotype that often along with han sub-types Yuè (Cantonese), Hakka, Hoklo and Teochew. At-least from what I’ve observed, by wife also has a pretty big one, but than again she is Asian American (born Chinese from Taiwan province). A notable exception seem to me, the Thai, Tai and H’mong (who honour the words Hong and Mong in the viet-namese language if you know what I mean) these seem to have butts that will make white men drool.

    Not everyone is into big butts and I can’t imagine why anyone would be. Tiny heinies are appealing to some people.

    Thin people usually don’t have a large derriere because it is a storage of fat. Some people store fat in different places on the body and some just store it in their backside.

    Personally, I prefer men with a small rear end.

    I can’t say what I think about women because I’m straight but I can tell you that many men also prefer a woman with a small butt.

  • Tofurky

    People from the North in China tend to have wide hips so yes, it’s complete BS.

  • victoriachau389

    No.

  • Reina

    I found this article pretty funny because it made me think back to a k-drama I watched. I thought the main male character was gorgeous until he turned around and I saw how he lacked in the ass area. Really, I’m not sure if it has to much to do with ethnicity because I’ve know plenty of asians with some sort of shape to their behinds.

  • mwei

    @Reina or are Asians too cheap to want to inject cement and rubber glue in their butts for surgery?

    http://gawker.com/5861135/cement+and+glue-butt-injection-doctor-has-unbelievable-curves

  • Reina

    @mwei Wow, that looks awful! Well, from what I searched actual butt implants are around $5000 to $6000. I don’t think asians are cheap enough the would go for the hatchet job first(though $700 for some glue and cement is a bit pricey more me). Think most asians just would never admit to getting a surgery done in the first place.

  • http://hubpages.com/profile/Pamela+N+Red PamelaNRed

    @Reina@mwei

    Nothing wrong with having a small derriere and in another decade or so large backsides will be out of fashion and those people paying ridiculous prices for implants will wish they’d left their perfect rears a lone.

  • NotlawItnahsaLeahcim

    Hips doesn’t=buns not by a long shot @Tofurky

  • Guest

    I don’t think the Chilean one was a best booty contest just bikini surf models. I would think that each country has many definitions of which body types are sexy.
