I've noticed some of the manga artists draw big butts for their muscular and fit women. Why do they do that?

lol partial reason 1:

The same reason the Japanese draw big boobs, because there's not a lot of that in reality in Japan. Also, The Japanese have a thing for panties anyways.

partial reason 2:

Because big firm globes hints at big firm glutes, which hints to an even further powerful looking frame.

Well, since there's an entire rap song about big butts I think that answers your question.

Typical males tend to like large breasts, and a nice rotund shapely, firm, butt.  Though I'm more of a breast man myself, seeing a great butt is a good second place.

Thanks, I needed that. Nothing in the world more ridiculous than a 50 yr. old white guy trying to rap.

Strange, I would have never known that from your work.

Collector where's your proof that a rap song is behind the idea of big butts in manga?

I doubt that a japanse manga artist is listening Sir Mix Alot-I like Big Butts, when they create a female character for the manga. 
To me its probly a trend right now, taken from another idea or trend. 

Remember the artist not also trying to do the art for himself, but for the audience who will see his art and what the audience wants.

Collector plz tell me you were joking?  But i still want proof on your claim.

I think some of these artists you mentioned {and myself}
link big round butt with bodybuilding just because
a girl cannot make her boobs bigger by working out,
but her buttocks in other hand…  😉

Oh man, that's a tough question to decide.
I love boobs and butts just like any other chauvinistic pig.

Proof?

That's like asking "Why do men like women?"

And you weren't supposed to take my post so literally, and besides people can listen to that kind of music from all over the world so you can never know if that's where an artist might get his inspiration from.

Sheesh.

So you were joking I see.  I just thought you where serious about it.
