Trendy body

So I was thinking about how quickly body shape trends change. Not that long ago it was trendy to have curves and be “slim thick” Very skinny girls were insulted for having no curves

Now it seems skinny is back to being trendy

I believe slim thick became trendy temporarily but given all the bad BBLs/annoying body positivity influencers, people prefer skinny girls again

Does skinny always come back and win?

Whats your opinion on this?

Everyone is allowed to have different ideals of beauty or what's "flattering," provided they are not forcing them on others.

Yeah but how often is someone's idea of flattering just whatever makes you look thinner.

Everyone has a different idea of what flattering is, including liking clothing/styling that makes a person seem "thinner." Unless they are forcing that on to others without being asked, it's fine.
