I wish the attitude to voluptuosness was more readily accepted in Italy. I'm a size 12 but it seems that any clothes you find in the shops are made for those who have the figure of a pre-pubescent teen. I had a fairly confident body image before leaving Australia and I'm quite fit - in Italy I now feel like a overweight cow!!! Attitudes need to change here in Italy! Anyway I feel better now having said that :-) You have a great attitude Tina and I wish we as women would not put so much pressure on ourselves to be something that we are not!

Being confident, healthy, and content with what you've got is the most attractive thing anyway. And eating good real food (and drinking some delicious wine) doesn't hurt either. Such a good point!

I want to say as a side note that though I'm excited about my booty, it's REALLY important that we take care of ourselves. I got up to the United States to be reminded that there is an obesity epidemic in the U.S. AND an anorexia epidemic! What's up with all of that? Let's take good care of ourselves - enjoy our food, eat REAL food, drink water, sip red wine, go for walks every day, dance lots of tango, end embrace life. Culo or no culo, I feel very fortunate to have the health that I have. Wow, thanks for all the comments!

Any instructions available how to get one? Many os us flat-assed women would be happy to have something behind. If I put any weight on, it just accumulates on stomach and there goes the waistline too..sigh:) Congratulations for growing an ass! Any instructions available how to get one?

I also have been blessed with a bubble butt - it took me a while to embrace it, but now I wear pencil skirts and waist-cinching belts. And I also love to wear high heels that go clickety-clack when I walk - isn't the way that they announce your presence great? Fantastic!
