    I have dated really thin guys, average guys, super muscular broad guys, and guys that were on the chubby side and honestly every time their personality won me over so their physique became a non-issue.

    I recently told the guy I am dating that I should look better naked than he does and it isn't fair that he is so hot! He laughed at me like I was crazy. :tongue:

    I should add to my post - this skinny guy is diabetic. So he's not even a healthy thin. He looks like he's sick to me. Sunken in.

    The problem is that no two people see or define skinny or fat the same way.
    Hell I bet 90% of all ladies see themselves as "fat" in some way,so no wonder many think guys like rail thin...they view so many others as such in comparison to themselves.

    To me Twiggy,the Olson twins,Victoria Beckham etc are what I call rail thin and thus undesireable.
    You're right Carl - I used to think I was fat when I was young, fit and quite thin compared to now. I'd love to have that body again!. Women are conditioned from young to think they always need improvement in things like their weight. The idea of dating a skinny guy makes me feel like I will appear much fatter standing next to him. :tongue:

    Your examples are also what I think of - women who are so underweight, their rib and collar bones jut out of them, and their arms are so thin, it looks like skin over bone with no underlying muscle tone. It looks unhealthy - like they've just starved themselves to a such a skinny state, they've lost so much muscle mass. That is unattractive to me in both men and women. There are thin models, actresses, etc. I also see that don't have that starved look about them, so I'm not against thin women generally - I just oppose when it's taken to an extreme that looks (and most likely is) unhealthy and that is being held up as the ideal for women to attain.

    Rule of thumb...if a ladys butt is flatter or skinnier then mine,I am not interested.
