Pirate's dream girl!, do you know what she looked like?

[Scythe]

A pirate's dream girl:

No, not blond, skinny with long legs and a large...erm...treasure chest :)

Look at this excerpt from a book of pirates facts:

"..The pirate dream girl of the 1690's looks so diffrent from today's model (nowadays) that it bears pointing out. While individual preferances, of course, varied from dreamer to dreamer, the desired type as featured in novels such as Molly Flanders and erotic engravings of the time-period, were not skinny girls, but women full in hips, thighs and buttocks, with firm abundant flesh and medium to smallish, half-cantaloupe breasts. (Large breasts - highly impractical before the invention of the brassiere around 1915 - only suited peasant wet nurses).."

I knew that very well ;)

It's funny how society nowadays has completely changed the look of an ideal 'woman'!

Patty,
same book? I see, so which book was that, that is the same as the one I read (I read many on the subject of Pirates - and none of them novels :))

Dee,
yeah, it is amazing isn't it? Nowadays you need to be as skinny as a stick, in those days, it was sexy to be full, haha, very full. fascinating how fashions and favorite body-shapes change like that :)
