What I'm saying is that you just don't see too many pear shaped women in the public eye.
Yes, because it's not a very attractive body. Those girls are fat.

Generally speaking, Hollywood goes more for the hourglass figure (and not Marilyn anymore either) or the banana shape (favoring the thinner figure).
Its not Hollywood which prefers them, female attractiveness is linked to the way body looks. there where countless studies which show that the hourglass shape is the most attractive one to men, statistically.
and Marilyn Monroe body was in X, meaning hourglass :P yes, yes hourglass her body was but not as skinny as today's "standard"

And beside that, more often than not, you'll hear some rude comment between older women in television and movies, complaining about their backsides and hips being too big.
Sure. Because women store fat first in those areas, it's their way to tell on TV "You are getting fat, *****" to other women.

Don't they know I like that? (Not like anyone cares).
Statistically, not too many man like it. Big *** and no upper body, no X shape, looks pretty bad IMO. A big *** looks good only on certain bodies, with a good development of shoulders
and when you still sport a good WHR and shoulder to waist ratio. But then again, this gets you back to an X shaped body .
In a way, physical attractiveness is inextricably linked to the X shape. For both man and women. And it was from long ago. For example, look at godess Venus art representation from antiquity. While she has a big booty in some of those representations, don't let it fool you. Check her ratios. She is not a "pear"
