    Urban Dictionary: curvy


    1. curvy. A woman with a shapely figure, generally well-defined waist, and fairly large butt and boobs compared to the rest of her body.

    Doesn't specify a weight range. I may not be a skinny minnie, but I definitely have large boobs and butt in comparison to my waist. :embarassed:

    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.

    ^^haha! but its so true

    So what I have gathered from this post is that there are 2 camps.

    1. 'Curvy' girls that don't want to be called fat.
    2. 'Fat' girls that dont want to be called fat.

    Am I close?

    To me curvy means hourglass shape,
    Big boobs, small waist, big hips.

    I was fat, now I'm curvy.

    Only you control how you feel about you.
    Fat is fat. I have fat. I have been fat. I eat fat.
    I AM smart, hot and beautiful.

    I am fat and I don't feel bad about myself... words only have about as much weight behind them as you allow them to have... fat is an adjective... a descriptive... just like curvy is... that doesn't mean they are synonymous with each other.... Just because you (in general) want to feel better about yourself by calling yourself something more desirable doesn't mean that is what you really are.

    I am fat and borderline obese (I have been hanging out on that cusp for way too long now)... It may describe how I look, but it's not who I am... I am short and I am fat.... I can't do anything about the former but I can the latter....

    People calling themselves more acceptible things to feel better about themselves are only lying to themselves.... Can I say 'themselves' one more time?

    Again, I am fat, I am obese and I am short... I own it... now I want to kick the fat and obese part to the curb with the trash where it belongs.

    I agree! Curvy should mean Marilyn Monroe-ish not Adele-ish. Not judging, I think Adele is stunning, but she's overweight not curvy.
