That look has always been mainstream, apart from the latter half of the 60s & throughout the 70s. (It used to depend on the woman whether she appealed to me, or not. I don't dislike large breasts, just stupidly exaggerated ones). I am thinking more of the many games which seem to require a mother figure with massive mammaries. It's as if they are an essential part of being a "Mom." It's just not the case but even Sophia fell victim to this stereotype when the Dev enlarged her, with no explanation. Later she slimmed down a little but not much.Bimbo style and bodypsitive its mainstreem now. Nikki Minaj - sex ideal.
Realism was the claim at the start of AWAM & was part of why I started playing. There is still a toehold on realism. At least Sophia doesn't resemble the mothers & others in Dreams of Desire, Milfy City, The Visit, Foot of the Mountain etc., etc. All, I assume, designed with their main target audience in mind.
As for the word "bimbo," it was never a compliment but amazingly it's actually been devalued as a term since the 80s, to become the insult it now is.
