Yep! I have no problem dating plus sized. My only condition is that they're not horribly obese.0

Of course I would. I only date people I'm attracted to, but there's a hell of a lot more to attraction than body size.

Yes but within reason, I think I would be more concerned about the state of his health. Not attracted to skinny guys either but hey it's just a preference. In my eyes everyone is beautiful and everyone will be attractive to someone out there. It's the inside that matters the most. What that person is like on the inside. If he's an Ahole I won't even give him the time of day but I'm engaged now anyway and this is how it was for me when I was single.0

Yes I would0

I've dated heavier guys and I've dated thinner guys (my current boyfriend and I weigh just about the same - but I was almost 40lbs heavier than him when we first met). There's more to it than physical appearance (I've met some pretty awesome looking guys were JERKS and I've met some average guys who were absolutely awesome) and while I don't see myself with someone severely overweight, being heavier doesn't mean I wouldn't give him a chance. 0

I have before... but his personality was amazing. We're still friends!
Now, I'm with someone who is fit and challenges me to be healthier and more active. I love it. 0 -
I've had one rule regarding size, they have to weigh less than me. Since I'm large in the first place, I don't see that as too harsh.0

Considering plus size is supposedly a 6 in womens YES I sure would! Hell even some of the Lane Bryant models are attractive.
Size 16 and I'll still throw her over my shoulder like she's a toy.0 -
I did date someone who was less than in shape, however my attraction wasn't as strong. I like my partner to be healthy and partake in a healthy lifestyle with me!0

As long as they don't make Harry Potter pun jokes.0

For an overweight person I think fat can be attractive, in the right places, all those curves and for men, nice big manly arms, good cuddling material 0

Yes she IS gorgeous and has a lovely figure, that is what I strive for, even if I am never skinny for the rest of my life, I wouldn't care, I would be totally happy just having a body like hers!0 -
I am and always have been more attracted to the content of a person rather than the shell they hide inside or behind...but I also know most people don't think that way and find it sad that others would just write someone off based on their looks or size...0
-
I don't overlook an overweight person right off the bat (I've always believed a good personality can make someone sexy), but they would definitely have to have the same fit and active lifestyle that I have chosen to adopt, which means more likely than not, any prospective partners would be of a normal or borderline normal weight.0

For girls, "plus size" can actually be pretty small. Sure, I'd date a plus-sized girl!
As for guys, though, it can vary. Is he plus-size because he's built large, tick, and tall? I'd date him. Is he plus-size because he's seriously obese? It depends on his personality.0 -
Honestly, it really depends on how "plus" size the guy is. At one point, I do think I developed a crush on an obese (about 5'6 and 280 pounds - 300 pounds) man... but it was purely due to his personality. I did not act out on my crush because a) I really want to lose weight and I do think that being with someone that heavy would've unmotivated me in the long rung and b)I wasn't physically attracted to him. IMO being obese due to laziness is not attractive in any way.
However, I have had crushes on short "husky" guys and would date any of them... though, they only appeared to be about 30 - 45 pounds overweight , were extremely cute + didn't look too "fat" (possibly 5'5 and 175 - 190 pounds). Basically, they were "big boned" and a bit "fat" but not obese. They were like football player big or "stocky".0 -
I like built or stocky guys. I'm not attracted to guys that are skinny or obese. It's nothing against their personality, in fact most overweight guys tend to be crazy sweet and chock full of nerdy ness that I love, but if we were going to date I would still need to be attracted to them physically. It's not everything but it is apart of it and to reach a certain level of intimacy I need that.
I like older men( and I dont mean just a year or two), Facial hair, stocky or built and at least taller than me which isn't hard to do. I guess I'm picky.0 -
I wouldn't decide who I date on looks alone. Attraction is made up or much more than that for me.
However, while dating someone, I would obviously worry about they're health, so if they're big enough for their health to be compromised it's something I'd want them to work on.0 -

Hell I think a lot of the Layne Bryant models are way more attractive than the Victoria's Secret models personally.
I'd certainly date someone plus size, I like women to be soft and curvy, really skinny women just don't do it for me at all. That being said, you still have to take care of yourself and stay in at least decent shape, I don't want someone that struggles to move or breathe as others have said.0 -
I see a lot of people saying that "looks aren't that important" and at the risk of sounding super shallow, yeah, they are, and if you say they're not, you're lying.
The first time you see somebody you're not thinking "damn I bet that guy has a GREAT personality!" No, the first thing you notice is what they look like. If you find what they look like to be attractive, then you're probably more likely to strike up a conversation. It's just human nature. Also, you want to be sexually attracted to the person you're in a relationship with. If you don't find thin men/women sexually attractive, you're probably not gonna be dating thin women. If you don't find larger or overweight men/women sexually attractive, you're probably not going to date them. It doesn't make a person shallow, just means they have a preference.
I prefer men who are more on the athletic side. It's just what I'm attracted to. I've dated guys that were super skinny, or a little on the heavy side, and I haven't been as attracted to them as I am to an athletic man, so no, I would not date an overweight man. Just my preference. Just like how there are probably plenty of men who wouldn't date me because they aren't sexually attracted to women with my physical attributes. No big deal! The good thing is, there are SO many different preferences people have, it kinda works out!0 -
yes why not? they're not different to anyone else except bigger... i find most bigger people are actually nicer than the thinner ones..0
-
no, i wouldn't. not because i'm against plus size dudes. i like my dudes cuddly and all... but let's be real here. i'm fat. if he's fat too... the logistics of sex just would not work well. been there, done that. it was not pretty.
OMG I just died lol0 -
yes why not? they're not different to anyone else except bigger... i find most bigger people are actually nicer than the thinner ones..
Really?0 -
Absolutely .. I usually like guys to be bigger than me! I don't think I could date someone who didn't work out/take care of themselves in at least some respect. A couple extra lbs doesn't disqualify anyone... I struggle with that too!0
