Yea, the unrealistic standards have been around a long time.

Even most art of Red Sonja (1973) is drawn far more "sexily" than realistic, and she's far older of a character than Lara (1996).

Of course both were created to leverage sex appeal, but my point is Lara Croft has still always been exaggeratedly skinny.

Not big tits. Triangle tits.

the polygon tits of history.
