That All-Important Question...

Big butts, or small ones?

Don't say it doesn't matter to you. I know damned well that everyone on this site has a strong opinion on the matter. Feel free to go into detail.

Personally, I think Sir Mix a Lot had the right idea.

i love butts generally, but you're right - I have a preference. My ideal would definitely be bigger most models or actresses ever dare display, though not huge. More important than size, however is shape - nice and round

Like njrick said, round is the most important. Size doesn't matter as much as long as it's round and toned. I love workout clothes because they show off lovely bottoms like that so well.

Round and pert, preferably with what Mr Robert Crumb calls the kidney bean shape where the back is arched and bottom sticks out. When I was young and at University there was a girl, a year older than I, who was always complaining about the size of her bum. I don't know if she was serious because she wore the tightest trousers it is humanly possible for a nineteen year old girl to wear, which is very tight indeed. I was wild about her and that beautiful bottom of hers but she always liked the macho rugger playing types but anyway I often used to take her to parties when she hadn't got a rugby playing hunk in tow. She was wearing these dark green loon pants that particular evening when she bent over for some reason. They split right down the middle right in front of my eyes. You could see pale pink flesh and pink nylon panties. Perhaps one of the greatest moments ever in the life of a dedicated bumwatcher!

I think that bottoms should be the "right size" for the person they are attached to. Unfortunately, "right size" is a matter of opinion, so that really doesn't shed much light on the subject, does it?

Yep, shape can be very important, and tan lines to frame it nicely.

As a lifelong victim of this passion, I never did understand my fellow male's obsession with the female chest. I will happily take the southern view whenever it is offered.

I agree with round and toned. Not too big but not so small that your hand print covers the whole butt.

I like to refer tomy wife Thi´s beautiful round, fleshy bottom as "the crown of creation", in my thoughts. Nothing compares to a pair of well-formed female buttocks!

How about having an impromptu poll on this question - "Which female celebrity has the most attractive butt?" My vote would go to Eva Mendes. I got such a thrill when I saw the scene in the 2009 movie "The Spirit" where the character played by Mendes undresses, and we get a several-second long view of Eva´s gorgeous bare bottom!

I also admire Madonna´s bottom. That pop singer not only makes great music - she also exercises so much that she has developed a *very* spankable bottom. And Madonna *deserves* a spanking to, given her often scandalous behavior!

And I have a rather queer habit. Every now and then I Google on the search term "Madonna´s buttocks". The hits which I get include whole galleries of photos of Madonna taken by her fans at her concerts, in which her backside features prominently. I can gaze at those images and dream of spanking the diva for maybe 15 or 30 minutes at a time!

Though I despise her and everything she represents, Kim Kardashian has the most perfect bottom I've ever seen. If all women had butts that size and shape (or perhaps just a tiny bit bigger), I'd be in heaven.

I agree 100% with this entire statement.
