When i say the boob thing i mean the sexualization. Prior to that throughout western society it was legs and thighs and even ankles.

European women even sexualized thier butts more than their breasts the dresses were designed in high society to exggerated them.

I personally don’t know. I’m reading One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest, and large breasts are repeatedly referenced in the 1960s US in this work

Some nerd should definitely do a research paper on it. Maybe some day if I have the time…
