My late father used to use this term to denote women he found very attractive (which would have been from a size 12 to a size 16.)
I always wondered what exactly the term meant and where it came from, and I found this interesting article online:

Has anyone else ever heard older men use this term in a GOOD way, as my father used to?
(To this day when I see a low end plus size woman who is very attractive, I can hear my dad saying, "Man, that broad is built like a brick sh*thouse"! lol)
An aside: The funny thing about my father was, he would have been regarded as an FA in today's society, because he did not like very skinny women. But he did not like very obese either.
