> [@Nzinga\_Seated](#): > > Hold up, killa. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. She doesn’t just have a ‘wide butt’. She’s got a ‘big booty’. Or more crudely, a ‘fat ass’. The reason it looks like a ‘wide butt’ is because she has to downplay that for the world stage. America’s not ready for a fat ass in the white house. > > If she were in the hood, instead of paying designers thousands for a style that camouflages it, she would be buying stretch jeans that plays it up so she can walk around like BLAM!, bangin’ out of control! It would definitely propel her from a ‘handsome woman’ to a ‘Daaammmnnnnnn, Michelle!’ > > But this aint the hood. This is American Society. And Michelle is, indeed, a handsome woman. One of the great things about this board is the things I learn about the black experience in America that I’d never know about otherwise. Who knew TPTB were deliberately spending big dough to fool America about the size of the Ms. Obama’s tush? Not us white folk, I guess, unless we’re advisers to the President. On the one hand it’s a shame this is apparently considered a necessity for prominent black females in the political sphere, but on the other hand it’s pretty damn funny the way you describe it. Maybe this is why Michelle likes to take separate vacations from the Prez - she can put on her stretch jeans and sashay around like “BLAM!” to her heart’s content. 😃 --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/michelle-obama-and-oldest-daughter-look-like-sisters/640302)._
