Ahhh... but that's my point.... who defined what is human beauty?..... who defined what is attractive?.....the male dominant voice of society did--(IMO) from hundreds of years ago... so men AND women follow that...
Who painted those pictures of women years ago? it wasn't other women.
What if from the beginning of time--- we were all told and shown how erotic a mans body is, how the very fine curves of their hips were more sensual than the larger curves of the womans-- thus being more attractive..... (after all women are better at noticing "fine" details than men.... so the very fact that women are found as the more attractive gender, proves to me how the male society has taught women to ignore their ability to focus on fine detail and accept that it's womens beauty that is to be noticed).... would we all then be in the mindset that men depict beauty not women?? it's out of the box thinking.....
I think a woman could be admiring another woman's body for several reasons..... competition-- including envy here, appreciating what the "male" society has deemed as "beauty", and it could be bi-feelings but not necessarily... all this-- IMO of course.
