Saw this in my newsfeed a few times. First thought was what would happen if we switched the genders? I doubt this would as popular in that case.

There is that one going around with Marilyn Monroe and some really skinny woman.

If you switched the genders, it wouldn't be much different.

It's kinda bullshit though. Most women aren't into the skinnyboys, nor guys that look like they have butterball turkeys on their chest.

I'd actually be interested in seeing a [fixed] version of this where it went

80's: Skinny + big boobs

90's: skinny + big boobs

Now: Dove campaign

edit: with the title "ladies, what happened?"

It's more likely than not that a guy made that, seeing Robert Pattinson (Edward Cullen from Twilight) in that third picture. Most girls love that guy, no? Not the most glorifying picture of him either.

I am pretty sure I seen the opposite actually. Its just making fun of changes in culture. Its not such a big deal.

The original version of this was about women.

It was like:

50's- Curvy

60's- Natural

80's- Rail thin

Today- Scary looking models

And there was a running joke for a short while where it went further and further back in time through Egypt and primitive fertility idols.

Rule 63 is an internet adage which states that for every fictional character, there exists a counterpart of opposite gender. It is often considered part of the Anonymous list known as Rules of the Internet, and among that list it is the most popular after Rules 1 & 2 and Rule 34.

A: For every given male character, there is a female version of that character. B: For every given female character, there is a male version of that character.

There exists a version of this for women, in fact I think I saw it, it had Marilyn Monroe on it.

Also, both versions are stupid things to get worked up over.

I never understood these posts.

"Men, what happened?"

Women, women started going after the skinny vampire types and so more men started looking like that. Women have always decided what men look like because what the ladies want gets the men what they want. Thats part of the reason why men are naturally taller and stronger than women, they always like that and so short guys had a harder time passing their genes on when we were arm wrestling t-rexes.
