When Did Butts Get So Big?
2014 is the year of the ass, but why? And how did bootys get so damn popular?
It’s official; 2014 is the year of the ass. There are asses everywhere. In our music, in our TV shows, our films, the ass has become part and parcel of pop culture in the world today, with Nicki Minaj’s smash hit Anaconda leading the rear guard.
But when did this happen? A big badonkadonk used to be something to hide away and minimise in any way possible, but now a portly posterior seems to be something that women flaunt. You can track this newly found pride in a big backoff all the way back to 2001 with Destiny’s Child’s Bootylicious
And for once, having a deluxe derriere isn’t exclusively for those of a black or Hispanic persuasion. White girls are getting in on it too, with Miley Cyrus throwing her own behind into the arena...

Singers like Meghan Trainor also attempt to tell girls with proverbial junk in the proverbial trunk that they’re beautiful, with lines like “Boys like a little more booty to hold at night.”

And it’s not just music that seems to have an obsession with the junk in that trunk. Even Marvel superheroine Spider-Woman is getting in on the action, shown here on the alternate front cover of Spider-Woman #1 as drawn by artist Milo Manara.
