   • 12th century CE, ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn al-Jawzī, أَخْبَار النِسَاء [ʔaḵbār an-nisāʔ, Stories of Women]:

     وكتب الحجّاج بن يوسف إلى الحكم بن أيّوب قال: اخطب على عبد الملك امرأةً جميلةً من بعيدٍ، مليحةً من قريبٍ، شريفةً في قومها، ذليلةً في نفسها، أمةً لبعلها. . فكتب إليه: أصبتها، وهي خولة بنت مسمع، لولا عظم ثديها! فكتب إليه الحجّاج: لا يحسن بدن المرأة حتّى يعظم ثدياها فتدفي الضّجيع، وتروي الرّضيع.

     Al-Ḥajjāj once wrote to al-Ḥakam ibn ʾAyyūb, "Pledge to ʿAbd al-Malik a woman who looks pretty from afar and sweet up close, who is of noble birth and humble soul, a slave to her husband." The man wrote back, "I have hit upon one: that would be Ḵawlah bint Mismaʿ, aside from the size of her bosom." Thus, al-Ḥajjāj wrote to him, "A woman's form is not good unless her breasts are full enough to warm up a bedmate and satiate a suckling."
