I like skinny/fit girls...

Skinny AND fit is a rarity in my opinion. I guess it depends on an individual's subjective definition of what fit means. I'll never be skinny unless I starve myself because I just have too much muscle mass. I'm lean (by most standards) and I'm fit but not skinny.

I think everyone has a different idea of skinny, 'cause if you're pick is you I totally think you're skinny (and looking kinda awesome!). It's a subjective word.

It is me and thank you

Isn't she amazing! I envy her

I have no idea why this would get locked.
How is it that you (and lots of other men) having a preference sooooo hurtful to those who aren't skinny or fit? It doesn't mean those women are ugly, it just means you aren't attracted to them. News flash: not everyone is going to be attracted to you at ANY size. You can't appeal to every one so get over it. Look the way you want to look for yourself, anyway.

Personally I am not at all offended or hurt by it. But seriously this topic on this fitness forum has been beat to death. Leave the freaking horse alone already lol. Sure everyone's "type" is different. We get it, and I don't really care. It's just getting annoying that the forums are just a bunch of stupid arguments and repeats of the same topic

perhaps the "i like big girls" thread is still up as reassurance? some girls don't have the frame to be skinny, and some might just need that little bit of faith put in them that they are beautiful to others regardless of their body shape/frame/size.

Never underestimate the power of reassurance when someone has hit a plateau.

And appreciate that sometimes, just sometimes, a comment like that could make a "fat" girl feel inadequate as a person and not as a sexual object. Your size does not determine how nice a person you are and bigger girls (or skinny girls on the other board) shouldn't be made to feel like outcasts.

I understand that no one should be made to feel left out. I don't feel left out, I'm not a skinny/fit girl, but I'm working to be a fit girl. The only reason I have a problem with people picking on him is because I don't hear everyone bashing when someone says I love the fat girls. Every person needs positive reassurance, it's something everyone wants.

^^!!!

Let's not practise reverse discrimination here.

Way would it get locked..I mean its your right right? lol

I prefer guys that aren't douche's and that appearance is only secondary to what really matters

Are you trying to imply he's a 'douche' because he has a preference? Where did he say appearance is primary?

Don't you have preferences?

there is no such thing as reverse discrimination; it's all discrimination.

and we all discriminate because discriminate simply means to separate one thing from another.

I prefer tall, lean men. but my lovenugget is average height & weight. I also prefer foreigners, but he's American. Does that mean I love him less? HELL NO! I love him for him and I think he's hot even though he wouldn't fit what I would describe as my "ideal."

There's way more to attraction than what we dictate to ourselves and others.

The problem is not with people having personal tastes, the problem is that you feel the need to announce it, unasked, on a forum full of people insecure about their weight.

Yes, I had the same problem with the skinny bashing on the I like big girls thread.

Basically, it's not to do with the fact you prefer certain types of girls, but rather that you objectify women by coming onto a thread unprovoked and announce "I like *insert body type* girls".

It suggests that you care more about women's looks than their personalities. (You could have said, "I like women that love to work out as much as me, I love women that take an interest in health and fitness, I love women that share my goals - but no, you just want one that looks the part)

It isolates and alienates girls that don't fit into your category - when no one asked you your opinion.

When threads like this are written it makes women feel inadequate, and makes many feel like they have to have the perfect body according to the OP.

Topics like this open up the floor for body shaming, pitting women against each other, general rudeness.

It's pretty misogynistic because it is A/ essentially judging a group of women on their bodies and B/encouraging others to do the same.

Yes, it does make women with a different body type feel bad. And you can't say the classic "if you don't like don't read" because it's right there in the title and pops up on the screen. It's not about being PC, stop to consider you might actually upset someone, especially on a website full of people sensitive about the subject.

So yeah, it's fine to have personal tastes and opinions, but women are so so so much more than sexual objects, we don't need people like you, or the "big girls" OP, telling us that our bodies are our main worth and stating your standards.

Guess what? None of us here want to date you, so why the hell do we care what gets you off?

Yeah, my pinky is skinny too, I try to ensure that my women are no bigger than my thigh at their biggest point. I think that's fair.

Even at my skinniest, I don't think I'll ever be smaller than my fiance's thigh, and he has really nice thick thighs..

Yes, we all like pats on the head but not everyone looks for or wants it from strangers on the internet. I do agree with what you're saying I just think members take things like this too seriously at times. I've done it myself, not proud of it but it happens. I try to learn from it.

"Other people's opinion of me are none of my business."

Samstudent88

That's ok.
I like SMART FUNNY and NON Judgemental GUYS .....Men that love you for who you are and not what type of Body God gave you...

Just my opinion.
Have a nice day!

shoegal517

I bet they find dudes in pink little girl's bike helmets who are trying to be controversial super attractive too... so you're in luck!

mommy2AR

everyone has their likes and dislikes...just part of life. Find the person that likes you for you

Skinny/fit and taking care of their bodies to maintain their fitness level


Mmmmm. Nothing better to me.

Dear haters: don't get my thread close bc you don't agree with my opinion and my preferences. Don't be a hater.

Rae said it the nice way. I'll say this: I doubt anyone here gives a f*** what you like. We all have opinions on what is best.

There's way more to attraction than what we dictate to ourselves and others.

I also believe it's all just simple discrimination, but I chose the term reverse discrimination to avoid a lengthy, drawn out explanation

I would love to be fit and thick, not skinny, I would like to have some body left, this means big boobies,*kitten* and thighs not saying there arent skinny girls like this I just prefer to keep some meat on my bones for the winter time lol and to feel proportioned to my standard. I like fit guys as well but what I like most is people who try to better themselves.....nothing better than a person who strives rather than settles

Preference is not discrimination.

I definitely agree with preferring a woman that values her body and health... Sometimes, women are worth the investment. I definitely wouldn't agree with someone refusing to date or even talk to a woman because she has some extra weight on her. You don't know if she works out, or if she's losing weight, or how much weight she's lost already. I think everyone should open their hearts to everyone else, and give them a chance.

Do you think that everyone is concerned with what type of women you find physically attractive? I mean really, what compels you to feel like you must announce this? Whatever. I just don't understand these threads sometime... oh well :ohwell:

Preference is not discrimination.

I know it's not.

I was talking about people bashing him for saying he likes skinny girls, but people not bashing people for saying they like fat girls.

Sorry, it's just a peeve of mine. I hate it when people say this because not only is it grammatically incorrect, it places a hierarchy on one particular group that reinforces existing bigotry.

edit: and I know what you mean, I'm not saying that you're doing this, just explaining why it bothers me so much.

I totally understand. I also hate the idea that there's such thing as 'reverse' discrimination, as I believe discrimination is equal whether it's applied to whites, or slim people, or rich people etc.

But, ya know, simple terms and all

You know sometimes you have to K.I.S.S. things for others to understand. (Keep it Simple Stupid, it was something I was taught when I was younger since I tend to get complicated when I explain things and no one but me understands what I'm trying to say)

fair play to you.. rather a guy who likes a girl who is healthy and fit than one of those chubby chasers who feed their girlfriends to a seriously unhealthy weight....

patranus

For me
Its more about the ability to set goals and keep them.
Its the ability to care about ones self enough to exercise.
Its knowing that one must put in hard work throughout life to get anything.
Its the mental state and the drive of the person.

The result might be skinny/fit girls but there is more to it than that.

foodfight247

Not read the whole thread but have to say I am really surprised this has got to 10 pages without being locked! lol. Especially after all the related threads about skinny girls then theres the skinny versus fat threads.....soooo sooo many..

OP - great topic! ;-)

From a skinny chick aiming for healthy living! lol

GiaFox

Wanna cookie?

lol. yea I'm sick of seeing posts of people's preferences. who cares if I prefer blue eyes or brown eyes or red eyes? no one.

Clearly you do as you come into the threads...


You've got a good point.
