[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 3999273, member: 18701"] Where did the stereotype of top-heavy women being barmaids come from? If there's a barmaid in a movie, she's top-heavy. If there's a picture or a figurine of a barmaid, she's top-heavy. Do flat chested women not carry mugs of ale as well as other women? I'm guessing it's a balance issue; so it sorta makes sense. I'm not a woman, so I don't personally know the effect a nice rack has on men buying refreshments. But do top heavy women really get more business than flat chested women? I've gone to Hooters a few times and I'm just happy when a pretty woman is serving me...flat chested or not. Why so much focus on their breasts anyway? Taverns in fantasy worlds are the strangest places. If we aren't focusing on the barmaids breasts, we're focusing on the gruff bartenders fat belly. Sometimes the bartender isn't even fully human...sometimes he has 1 or 2 large pointy teeth protruding from behind his bottom lip. So adventurers are ok with buying ale from this guy as long as he's behind a counter, but in open space, adventurers gotta be served by curvy women? Geez, at least put the flat chested women behind the bar and get rid of ol' fatty one-tooth :\ [/QUOTE]
