I think statements like that are 1) cheap sadistic thrills 2) a quick & valuable clue as to someone's values & social skills 3) often a subconscious test to see if the woman's self esteem is low enough to permit further boundary-fuckery.
Have you watched Carnivale? Beautiful depression-era sets, cool costumes, great actors, nice creepy story. Cancelled after 2 seasons (the story moved a frustratingly slow for American audiences, apparently) but still utterly worth watching via Netflix. There is a dancer character on there, full-figured in her late 30's or early 40's, who is hot and an inarguable sex symbol and totally meant that way. She was awesome.
I know there isn't a slew of such characters, but every single one helps and I'm happy every time I see it.
