    When I hear thick, I think linebacker. Same with built like a brickhouse. Heard it for a loooooong time before I gained weight. My husband prefers amazon. All of which I detest!!!!!

    It's supposed to be a compliment. Not agreeing here. lol I prefer voluptuous or curvy.

    Wow, language is a strange thing. I'd be completely insulted to be called thick - it means stupid in my part of the world.
    In the context of weight - I could only guess that it means the opposite of thin and it wouldn't sound like a compliment to me.

    I'd never heard this term until I found MFP, I guess it is one of those US words that we may as well get used to because it will end up here (Australia) sooner or later.

    What a weird word! My hubs uses a few words that drive me nuts, but when it comes to weight, he keeps it really simple. It's either sexy or it's not. Works for me. Even with all my extra weight he appreciates the sex appeal. I've still got it, the goal is to get more of it. The best thing I've noticed on this project is that not all appeal comes from physical attributes, sometimes it's just sexy to be happy and confident that you are doing the right things for your mind and body.
    As far as the word, I would call him on it and say "if by thick you mean hot, yup, I'd do her." That will get his attention. :)

    According to my man, who prefers "thick" girls, they are naturally curvy girls. The ones with a flat tummy but rounded hips, rounder bigger butt and thighs. Think salma hayek, kim k, beyonce, christina millian. They are thin in the tummy, arms, etc but the butt and thighs are kickin like bruce lee. Lol

    Edit to add my man says sometimes too big is too much and wouldnt be considered thick.


    ^^^ This...my husband likes "thick" women.

    Thick is good! That means you got a booty back there a nice set of thigh and wonderful breast.
    Your man got something to grab on to!
    A REAL man like meat! Leave the bones to the dogs

    Exactly! Men really do like women in all packages, and there are a lot more men out there that appreciate a woman with softness and a curve or two or three!

    Wow. Way to be insulting to thin people. Why is calling someone fat such a horrible thing, but calling someone bony is ok? Does putting others down really make you feel better about yourself?

    A REAL man likes a women who has all those special qualities that makes her a wonderful human being. REAL men love women of all shapes and sizes.

    I can't stand being called "thick." If so many women didn't misuse this word....I wouldn't hate being called that. I've seen women who are 250+ call themselves "thick," when in actuality....they don't have the flat stomach and the killer waist/hip ratio.

    :grumble: I have been called thick before, or worse I think is being told I have 'dsl' and having to have THAT explained to me, I dont even take either as a compliment, there are a million other words to use lol. I dont prefer being called thick, but overall I think if you have a *kitten* and curves, be prepared for someone to say it

    from urban dictionary...lol

    Thick

    A woman with a perfect body, filled-in in places that are, by nature, designed to attract the opposite sex, such as the thighs, the hips, the breasts, and the most lovely part of all, the booty.


    LOL...yep that's my understanding of what "thick" means.:laugh:

    Beyonce, J-Lo & Kim K. are examples of "thick" woman. Not fat,not skinny but curvy & solid in all the right places. It's a compliment.

    I take it to mean that even if you lost a lot of weight, and got as skinny as your body would allow, you'd still look a little heavier than someone with a smaller frame. In other words, no matter how skinny J Lo gets, her *kitten* ain't going no where. Lol.

    I am in California. If you say thick here it is a compliment. It doesn't mean overweight. Its more of a body like Serena Williams, Kim Kardashian. Having body in all the right places, solid. Big thighs small waist can mean thick too.

    I get called thick a lot. I'm 5'8", my weight is consistently around 155 pounds but only have about 18% body fat. I can't get below 150 without starving myself. More "normal" framed size 5'8" women could easily get to 135 pounds and still have more body fat on them than I do. My shoulders are broad and my thighs are bigger than many mens.

    That said, I hate hearing it. I'd love to be told I was "skinny".
