Can a Fit, Sexy Girl Like a Fat Guy?

Interesting thread. In my experience the answer is no but suppose a lot depends on the definition of 'fat'. I think a lot also depends on where people live. A sexy girl being with somebody bigger is probably a lot more acceptable in certain parts of the world, than others.
I know many overweight men....some are shy and some are ok with themselves...some working to lose weight and others not....
I don't think it is a certain country ....
I am from Germany orginally
and I find it is the man that is inside of that body that can or can't attract me.0 -
I don't personally like chubby guys, I like very thin, tall, dark haired ones. I have a very specific type, but I don't see any reason at all why a thin girl wouldn't fancy a podgy bloke. It's all about personality, really.0

yes, anything is possible ;D.0

Yes. My husband is built like a polar bear, always has been, and I think he's hot as hell. He's always had a belly and I can't imagine him any other way.0

From my experience I have seen some of the most not so good looking, heavier set guys get the most GORGEOUS girls.
For example, my best friends mom i a size 6, totally beautiful woman who's probably 5'5, and she's dating a guy who is 6'7 280+lbs, which looks GOOD on him because he is way taller, but he is a heavier set guy built like a Line Backer.0 -
LOL, rotf, lmao...............
I was a fit sexy woman when I fell in love with the fat guy.
We married, had 4 babies and now he is the fit sexy thin guy and I am fat. You just never know how things are going to work out!! We are married 23 years and together 30 years this next March.
So its time we match! And that is why
I am on Myfitnesspal and am going to lose the weight this year!
Why do you ask?

When I was 5'1" and about 117lbs I was going out with a man who was 6'3" and 260+lbs. We looked ridiculous together, but I loved him being twice my size! I prefer overweight to underweight though. The worst ex in my life was very underweight and he put me off skinny men!
It's interesting that a few women here have said that they wouldn't be attracted to a morbidly obese man whose relationship with food and lifestyle was posing a risk to his health. I wonder how many would feel the same way about an average sized man who smokes.0 -
True story! I know SEVERAL couples who have seemed to have rock solid marriages falter. Reason, they were both overweight, went through life and kids together, wife starts losing weight. Guys start paying attention to her, she likes the attention and doesn't wanna be around fat hubby anymore. Sounds very shallow, and I DON'T agree with their decision. But this has happened to at least 7 or 8 of our friends in the last couple of years!
That is sad.0 -
Yes I definitely think a woman can. This would be the deciding factor for me though. I really want someone to be active with, and live a long life with. So even though they may be overweight I want them to be active, healthy, and strive to be the best person they can be inside and out! I am also a huge believer in confidence is super sexy so that definitely is a bonus! All that being said I think that a man that doesn't have any meat on him isn't attractive and really not comfy to cuddle with! Also if they are too buff then I really don't find that attractive either!0

Deb, I was just looking to test my theory... and I have to say I was correct. You women are great.0

I am by no means fit or sexy but I do like my man to be on the "bigger" side! I have always liked chubby guys and now my husband is actually smaller then me and I absolutely hate it.
I am working on becoming smaller then him but it's a slow process as we all know
I miss his "chubbiness"

I'd say so. My husband is a bit chubby. I wouldn't want to date a "fat" guy, but someone who isn't super fit is fine.
Fat meaning like really really over weight and unhealthy.0 -
God I hope so!!!! lol. I think friendships that develop into something doesnt matter if either partner is overweight, skinny, muscular whatever there physique it shouldnt matter0
-
My husband and I are about the same in weight but my 16 year old daughter who is 120 lbs. is dating an 18 year old guy who is 240 lbs.! His mom is a petite woman (no idea on how much she weighs but I'd guess less than my daughter) and his dad is also a heavy guy like him. Weight isn't the number one factor in most relationships! My husband still loved me even when after 3 kids, I weighed more than him. A good personality and how you treat your partner and others goes a long way!0

HELLO!! Take a look at Meatloaf. (And I don't mean the food.) He was VERY heavy and still had sexy girls clamoring to be with him!
I'm pretty sure that they were after the fame and money. If not, they were paid. Sweaty just isn't attractive on any level to me. And boy does he sweat.:indifferent:0 -

You sound pretty great yourself! Go get her!0 -
Its all about attitude.0

Yes! Even back when I was thin and athletic (high school/college), I always liked a guy to be a bit huskier. Personality, adorable smile, nice eyes and sense of humor always got my attention.0
-
i couldnt. Fitness and taking care of my body is such a vital part of my life, I would find it hard to be with someone who didnt care about it the way I did. And it would have a negative influence on me.0

Confidence is so sexy0
-
Yep. When I was at my ideal weight (late teens/early 20's), I found many heavier guys attractive...many of them had the same things in common....sweet, funny, good looking, gentleman, confidence, and common interests.0
-
Honestly, I have never been attracted to overweight men. Just a personal preference. I have always been fit and concerned about my health and I look for the same in my mate. Now they don't have to be skinny, but I don't care for chubby either.0

I wanted to add, even though I am overweight now, my husband still finds me attractive. He says that its all in the attitude. If you feel sexy and act sexy you are sexy no matter the size.0 -
Absolutely, as long as some sort of physical attraction is present. What truly matters, though, is the connection established by the two individuals. Beauty is fleeting -- it's best to pick a partner with substance and depth.0

bump....i like this question. i need to go back and read some of the comments. I found it interesting that women werent as attracted to me 70+ pounds ago :ohwell: . At least, that's the perception I have. Maybe there isnt any correlation. It's hard to tell.0
-
Oh I KNOW so. My whole life I have always been attractive to a bigger men. Only because I feel safer with a bigger man. Skinny is just not attractive to me. A big man is!0
-
I have been very fit at the same time that my husband has been overweight. Still
him.
That being said, I'm a little confused by the question. Is this someone who doesn't give a damn about their own appearance wanting arm candy? Seems a little shallow to me. The only reason I think is appropriate to want a fit "girl" (for the record, woman is more appropriate) is because fitness and lifestyle is important to you and you want someone to share that with. So I don't think "fat guy" would qualify. Just my two cents.0 -
Yes, definitely. Not everyone goes for looks, and confidence (not cockiness) and a great sense of humor can do wonders for physical attraction.0
-
Well I'm not exactly fit and sexy yet and my husband is about 100 lbs overweight. He's tall and broad so you might not guess he's that overweight by just looking at him. I love him and his huge biceps though. Not to mention he's a pretty awesome man in general. So, sure it's possible.0
