Has attraction always stemmed from wealth, money, or status?

In early ages, women who were "plump", "thick", "heavy", "overweight", "obese", or "chubby" - were comsidered attractive.

I'm not sure if this goes for ALL the men who were living back then, but I'm sure it were the majority.

Now-a-day's everyone is so focused on being skin and bones. Why?

Which is more attractive to you?

Answer:
Being chubby back then ment in the face of starvation they had enough to eat and therefore could easily support children, as furthering your family line was of great importance. A thin fragile woman could fall ill, or be unable to concieve in the eyes of that time period where diseases were unexplained and they only had visual cues to go by.

Being thin is seen as having will power in the face of excess. There is so much food now that those who are different from the overweight majority stand out. Youth and childlessness are the new status of the moment, so a young undeveloped looking body is desired by those not looking for commitment or family, which follows the values of popular culture at the moment.
Money isn't attractive per se; it's the security that money affords that is attractive to the survival instinct in your brain. Other attractiveness features include body symmetry (shape, size, both sides being even), smell, voice and movement. All these things hit a spot in your brain and while your frontal lobe is rationalizing why you like someone, the back of your brain is assessing the biological and practical value of the person and their possible contribution to your safety, security and gene pool.
Well yes, I don't want to be overweight and i don't wan to be skin and bones

A woman that is healthy ,looks more attractive
No,do you know we are most attracted to people whose body odour is most different from ours,that is there immune system is most different from ours.so when you are attracted to someone,it does not mean that you are attracted because of that person's physical appearance and those people who think that boys or girls are attracted to physically slim and trim and are wealthy and have a certain status are only attracted temporarily,they are not attracted to that person but instead to what he has.gradually that attraction or infatuation wears away because either they are fed up or have acquired what there partner had themselves.
i'm not one for huge boobs. i also love women who show intelegence regardless of where they grow up so for me i think its more of a show of what would be geneticaly beneficial for our offspring. my fiance and i make up for everything each other lack. she's "s" i'm "m" i'm streetsmart, she's booksmart, i would fight through a crowd to keep her safe, and she'd raise our kids to never fall into the wrong crowd. you get the picture. its genetic and physiological things i like.
