It is possible that there is a biological reason for a preference for large breasts (evidence of greater milk production and thus greater chance of healthy children, perhaps), and perhaps that is one of the reasons why the Japanese were so swift to take in American desires and aesthetics in a post-WWII environment.

As for France, the saying is by no means null, for there is a long history of its being representative of the standard of beauty in that country. For example, if one examins the Rehabilitation Trial of St. Joan of Arc, it is made quite clear that small, firm breasts are considered especially beautiful. Lady Liberty is fairly well-endowed in that picture you sent me, but I notice that the firearms are more advanced than the one used by Gaston. Perhaps his town simply maintained more traditional aesthetic values.

"Why Gaston, you are positively Mediaeval!" ;)
