Why do so many latinas have wide hips and skinny, small waists with big butts? I know every ethnic group has women like that but those traits are most common in Latinas, by far. Many of them eat too much and very unhealthy foods but their waists remains slim while their thighs and butts get bigger. Is there a genetic explanation for this? Also, I’m aware many Latinas don’t have this body type but I’m referring to the many that do.

Some store fat more easily on one area than another. Years of selection will achieve all sorts of things.

Genes I'd guess. (Unless they're forcing their body shape with what they wear.)

africans tend to have the same body shape. It gives an advantage whe birthing children - wide pelvis and a tilt to the pelvis that makes the bum stick out and look bigger but also makes the passage of babies easier
I'm not Latina and I have that shape, but to answer your question I imagine it's purely genetic.
