It is said that in the Tang Dynasty, fat was considered beautiful

Do you really know Yang Guifei’s figure? The history encyclopedia editor provides detailed related content for everyone.
People have their own opinions on aesthetics, or if the standards are different, different opinions will arise. However, in general, people still do not like overweight people. Otherwise, why do there not be so many fitness rooms or weight loss pills in society? When it comes to this situation, many fat people aspire to an ancient dynasty, which is the Tang Dynasty. After all, in people’s impression, this Tang Dynasty is beautiful for being fat. Perhaps when fat people travel back to the ancient Tang Dynasty, they will become objects of competition. Is the real situation really like this?
We all know that Yang Guifei was a fat woman, and it was for this reason that she was loved by Li Longji. In some folk rumors, Yang Yuhuan is 165 centimeters tall and weighs 145 pounds, which is a typical fat woman. Seeing such a fat woman dancing in front of her, coupled with Li Longji’s proficiency in music, can such a big fat woman really be stunning? You should know that when Yang Yuhuan danced the Jinghong Dance, both Li Bai and Du Fu wrote many poems to praise Yang Yuhuan’s beauty! Is it hard to imagine that these literati all like fat people? Or are their poems all flattery to the emperor?
In fact, from the imperial harem of the Tang Dynasty, we can only see a record of Yang Guifei being a fat woman. However, we cannot assume that the aesthetic of the Tang Dynasty was like this just because someone was favored by people for being a fat woman. In fact, there were no more requirements for women’s physical fitness in the Tang Dynasty. The aesthetic view shifted from being thin to being fat, but this fat woman was only slightly overweight! According to current terminology, it’s just plump, but this can’t really be called fat, right? It turns out we’ve all been deceived!
