    IRONY OF PEACE BAHAHAHAHA Goal weight 115, says 120lb is underweight

    WOMEN LOGIC, it blows my mind

    Please show me one place where I said 120 is underweight.

    I'll wait.

    You dont deserve my reply,

    Goal weight 115lb
    says 120 is underweight



    sorry but that made me laugh so hard
    I never said 120 was underweight. I'm still waiting for you to show me one place where I said that.

    You saying I said it doesn't make it so. Maybe when you grow up some day, you'll understand that.

    Really? It seems like more than 8%. Maybe I'm just phrasing it wrong then. I guess what I mean is when a woman loses her "shape" (and don't pretend not to know what I mean) and starts to become round (again don't pretend to not know what I mean). Thick good. Round bad.

    If you count pear-shapes, there are more than 8% with the small waist/larger hips. :-)

    I do know what you mean, but someone told me I'm spicy today, so that's probably it.
  • Overweight - Sure, I've encountered a number of them that I thought were attractive.

    Obese - Not so much

    well what do u consider obese?

    Losing the hour glass shape is where it starts to get tricky for me. As in being more round than just being curvy.

    8% of women are hourglass shaped, no matter their weight.

    So 92% of women in the world, by your defiition, are obese no matter their weight.

    *pet pet pet* In this thread, you're never going to say the right thing :wink: but some of us know what you mean.

    The topic did say be honest LOL. As a friend of mine says, don't ask questions you don't wants answers too.

    Aw. Someone has a crush.
  • Wow, this got all kinds of nasty. OP simply asked if men are attracted to bigger women. The answer, in general, is not especially. It should not come as a shock to anyone that men tend to prefer more svelt looking women, on the whole. Of course, as in anything, there are exceptions, and "outliers" that will skew things a bit, but if you were to ask 100 men to be totally honest, with the guarantee of anonymity, the majority would say, if given the exact same woman, but a thinner version and a bigger version, they'd choose the thinner.

    Why is this question asked a million times, and why do women get all upset by the answers (however douchey) men give?!

    You never look at an overweight or obese girl and say "damn she's hot. do you?? I've even caught my husband saying how thin women are hot, but never any that are overweight or obese.

    please, ask your husband what he considers attractive, not here. Most likely you, he married you. :)

    ^^this. Is seems as though this is something that should be talked about with your husband. You appear to have a large degree of insecurity, rightly or wrongly, and really, the only person who can help alleviate that is your husband.

    i agree with this ! maybe you should tell your husband how his comments of other women make you feel? in the 6 years ive been with my husband he has never mentioned another woman, i was wayyyyy bigger when i met him too so i think the comments about personality making people attractive is a point but not everyone fancies the same people if men only lusted after slim celebs there would be a whole heap more of us alone! xxx

    As if the same isn't true for women. I'm a big guy and women don't let me forget it when it comes to dating.

    I think it is a confidence thing more than a weight thing. I know I am more confident now than I was six months ago...and I ooze that, men respond. If I felt this good about myself when I weighed more I think they would respond then too. I respond the same way to men with confidence. I've dated overweight, unattractive men who I loved being with...they were confident and fun and exciting. People are so much more than their weight, but unfortunately we let that rule us too much. My solution was to make it not an issue..so now I am me...

    Aw. Someone has a crush.
    Sitting in a tree...K.I.S.S.I.N.G.
  • Weight has never been an issue with me. I fell in love with my wife when she was 300 lb., and love her for WHO she is. I am not a "chubby chaser" or a dog by any means.

    HONESTLY. Any other answer is just shallow.

    ive always found that people become more attractive once you get to know them and know their personality



    I agree with this 100% I know the question is for guys but I'm sure there are great guys out there that look for personality not just if you're skinny or need to lose extra weight. The bottom line is you have to be happy and comfortable with how you look on your own. It's hard for me to look at myself and see an attractive women but I know that feeling good about myself and being comfortable in my own skin is sexy. I think it's not just about losing weight you have to build confidence as well.

    My guy is not overweight at all. I only know some of the women he has been with and none of the are overweight. He likes his girls to have a butt and sort of thick, but he fell for me and I need to lose about 100 pounds. He is so supportive but never has pressured me to lose weight. He wants me to be more active. I want to lose this weight for many reasone, one being I want to look great for this man that I love who loves me regardless. That is priceless.

    Aw. Someone has a crush.

    I would have laughed if he had used your current profile picture.
  • First of all, it isn't very considerate or respectful of your husband telling you how he finds other women attractive-at all. I would absolutely never tolerate that-its hurtful. However, all relationships are different...

    Anyway, I would agree. In the USA thinner women are considered more attractive. A good friend (male) once told me he said men (he knows) think how a woman takes care of herself is how she will take care of her husband and her children. I think in many cases, your body reflects your mental state (naturally there are always exceptions).

    I think it's important to be the best version of yourself. I've been an athlete all of my life but am short at 5'1. Many things I've read suggest I should weigh around 105 lbs...I think I was born at least 110, and am a healthy size 6 at 123 lbs.

    Overweight people are definitely attractive-look at Adele. Bottom line, be the very first version of you-I'm sure you are a great person!

    I think that confidence and personality are important traits but they are not some kind of magic solution. You definitely put the odds in your favour the more in shape you are.

    Exceptions do not make the rule.

    Tbh I much prefer a girl who has curves than one who is stick thin. I want a woman who looks like a woman, not one who basically looks like a boy in a bra.

    If that means she has a few extra pounds thats fine with me :)

    Obese can mean quite a wide range. For example many girls with curves and a little bit of extra flesh and look great are technically classified as obese.

    For me, everyone is attractive in their own right. How they are, how they act and how they speak.

    For a physical sexual relationship I'd struggle to date a woman who doesn't train. Lifestyle and thus look wouldn't mix. Doesn't mix, have been there before.

    yum, how YOU doing?
