Because DANG IT! I AM!!! I'm not 200 lbs overweight, I'm a textbook hourglass figure with a large chest, small waist, and wide hips... My "curvy" isn't my many many rolls down my body.

Let's change the meaning of this word back to what it is. Call a duck a duck....

Thanks! :)

    That's starting to mean fat too... anything having to do with a sexy figure, is meaning fat... it pisses me off

    Agreed. You can be skinny and have curves. I'm an hourglass, damn it!

    Preeeaaaaccchhhh!!!!

    I have worked hard on my body, and I am NOT fat (anymore) but I sure as hell am curvy, voluptuous, thick, whatever you wanna call it---the REAL meanings of the words! Let's take those words back!

    90% of the time when someone describes themselves as curvy I want to say:

    It seems we've gotten far away from what curvy actually is.

    I agree, curvy, voluptuous, should all be good terms. Why on earth did they become fat? Because most of society is fat. We are swimming against the stream! Keep up the good work. :smile:

    me too - british size 12 - american 8 I think...I weigh 150 pounds and my waist is 10 inches small than my hips and chest...curvy is not fat - never has been - fat is fat - not an insult just a fact. I have been 196 pounds - I was fat!! Good luck with your journey :-)

    curvy is exactly what you described and i'm happy to say i am also that shape. ;) i have a relatively small waist in comparison to my hips (14 inch difference last time i checked). i like my shape. someone plus sized or not can be considered curvy... it's a body shape. not a weight. ;)

    curvy is good....don't be too hard on yourself...its a bodytype that men do adore for sure as others suggested...however you have to be comfortable with what you are which goes to confidence really...I will say though...you have beautiful facial features

    In your specific case I think "smoking hot" is more accurate.

    I hear ya and totally agree! I'm like you hourglass, curves in the right places yet if I described myself as a curvy girl that would mostly like be taken to mean I was 'fat'. I know for the larger gals out there that they of course need a nice word to describe their 'curves' but what do we average build ladies describe ourselves? (and I don't like that word average either lol)

    voluptuous also makes me think LARGER lady

    any ideas?

    I would love to be described as 'svelte'...I'm getting there but not YET!
