    Okay? So what if they have? What's your point? And who cares? What does that have to do with you? If you feel you're curvy you are, just like if they feel they're curvy they are. Curviness comes in all weights and heights.

    No, but it makes no sense to sit and talk about how other people DEFINE their BODIES. Worry about your body and support others. Who cares if someone 200lbs calls themselves curvy. What does it have to do with you? Or anything else for that matter?

    Did you not read the OP? I can't call myself curvy because in today's world it means fat, because fat people have taken it and ran with it.

    I care... which is why I posted. Keep up sunshine!

    I prefer voluptuous...

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

    What about hot b*tch?

    Voluptuous, hot b, hourglass, MILF....I enjoy them all. I just wish they would cut clothes that fit us curvy girls. I get really annoyed when a shirt squeezes my 'assets' into one lump and then hangs like a sack around my waist.

    That's my favorite

    curve/kərv/
    Noun:
    A line or outline that gradually deviates from being straight for some or all of its length.
    Verb:
    Form or cause to form a curve.
    Synonyms:
    noun. bend - turn - twist - curvature - crook - turning
    verb. bend - crook - flex - bow - warp - twist

    Pretty sure a curve can go inwards, outwards, up...down...any which way. You don't have to curve inwards to be curvy, your curves can curve outwards as well. Curvy means anything that's not straight. An overweight person who is completely round can call themselves curvy; they curve outwards. To each their own.

    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! :)

    Got that except the big boobs :( (36B)

    very narrow waist and wider hips...though I'm not big either (size 6)...you can feel/see my hip bones...just got a big pelvis I guess.

    No boobs? That's ok, we can call you pooperific!

    You can use the following word list: (this is just my opinion on the words...#pleasedon'tflameme)

    sexy
    hot
    womanly figure (hips ftw!)
    voluptuous (boobs ftw!)

    you don't need to use the word curvy

    Oh BTW, you don't have to be an HOURGLASS to have curves, you can be pear shape, etc etc. Honestly this post was a little stupid and narcissistic.

    Isn't that the truth!! Fun and games people..........fun and games!!!

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

    Someone in the Kim Kardashian thread described her hourglass figure as "a weird shape."

    Women with wider hips and smaller waists? Absolutely bizarre!

    Quoting dictionary definitions is what you do to start an essay when you're 10. Also what is the dictionary definition of Duckface?

    Okay, cool. I'm glad you made this an issue to care about. I hope you make a difference in the world by taking this "issue" head on on MFP. Maybe one day all the "fat people" in the world will stop calling themselves curvy. :wink: :smile:

    I know! It's as though aliens invaded and bred with earthlings to produce such a strange and before unknown figure.

    Here’s a textbook example of how and why the meanings change. Criticize then manipulate it to what you like. I'm so offended... I’m not fat and lumpy, I’m voluptuous and curvy.

    curvy can be whatever you make of it, but lately it seems its only a bad thing. To ME, curvy is the same as what you said - hourglass. Fit girls can be curvy, too.
