to be honest, this is more of a cultural issue than one may realize. putting breasts before all else is largely a recent, white middle class american phenomenon. the hip area is far more important to a woman's sexual appearance in most of the world than it tends to be here. part of it is that women strive more for a thin, androgenous look in the US today, since a more natural, curvy body is perceived as too closely tied to motherhood and tends to be denied as antithetical to the idea of the independant, career woman. in fact, anything that indicates a woman's biology is frantically erased by a certain class of women; look at the massive hype around the new pill that eliminates menstruation. also note the imagery of the ads - trendily dressed, thin career women in an high-class urban setting (they even find time in the short ad to have one woman mention that she is a doctor). the breasts become the last refuge for sexual difference in the new, thin body type - in fact, there is a fairly demonstrable correlation between the desired body weight of women in a society and the amount of emphasis placed on the hip/thigh/ass area sexually. non-white groups in the US, black or hispanic for example, still hold a different ideal for the female form, and one that has a great deal to do with the diferent notions of what makes a woman powerful, which tends to be less tied to mere independence in the modern sense.
