The Hottentot Venus. Ever heard of her? I thought not.
Yes, but in my letter on the first page of these letters I pointed out the the future First Lady is no Hottentot.
I am sure that if one were to meet her face to face, the feature one would immediately notice is that she is six feet tall, and that her butt, if one cared to examine it, is in proportion, especially considering that she has born children (presumably via the natural pelvis-stretching route).
I once had a girlfriend, a black woman who claimed she was 5ft. 11 1/2 inches tall (though she looked taller to me), and her butt, in terms of pure volume was larger than the average butt, but it wasn't out of proportion.
Much discussion here about black female butts versus their white counterparts. If anyone really wants to know the difference there is a TENDENCY for women of African descent to have butts that jut out aggressively on the top slope, whereas white women TEND to have butts that droop.
Wearing high heels tends to further exaggerate and promote the sexually aggressive butt.
That jutting African female butt was and is sexually alluring to men of all races,and this is presumably why the subject has been brought up here.
People of African descent also tend to have calves that are less developed than people of European descent, but that is much less interesting and prurient,and so less likely to be written about.
