Q&A

Would wide hips be a wiser evolutionary trait for digitigrade, biped humanoids?

I was asking a deviantART.com artist why they often draw their anthros and furries with wide hips regardless of gender, and they told me this (copypasting):

"I'll see if I can't whip something up for you soon, usually i do the wider hips when it comes to ocs with anthro feet, since the leg structure is slightly different and the majority of the muscle is in the thigh rather than somewhat evenly spread between thigh and calf so I tend to draw the hips look out more so they're not so disjointed to the legs."

I really like this idea, but is it plausible? I'll probably end up using it in my fiction and stuff anyway even if every single last one of you tells me it's not, but lol, I wanna know regardless.
