I think men actually have ZERO idea of womans weight.
This is a totally weird statement. 120lbs at 5'4 on me would mean I would have NO muscle. I suppose if I didn't work out and sat home not eating this would be possible. I would prefer not to develop osteoporosis.Tbh most fat girls look half decent once they get to around 120lbs or something srs
That said, on someone 5'8 it would be even more extreme. I think you may be just guessing here. And based on the responses not doing such a great job of it.
I think you are attacking this guy for giving his POV. Leave the guy alone and give him a break.
120lb for an average woman in the UK, which is 5' 3-4", is totally healthy. You seem out to attack the thinner woman. Leave them alone. He's not attacking you, he's experessing a preference. Nothing wrong with that.0 -

^^ correct.
It's always amusing at how delusional Man friend is. He's learned recently of my jean size... "Girls sizes are weird."
It's cute how clueless he is

These are throwing lanky girls at me, and come at me with the God aka BMI which is never right tbh
Reminds me of when fat girls saying skinny girls are unattractive, No its just you'll never be like that0 -

HIS opinion would be something to the effect of, "I am personally not attracted to heavier women."
What he SAID (and then added on to make it worse) was, "Why would a guy want an overweight girlfriend?"
And I was 110 pounds when I was younger and happy about it. I don't have a problem with the weight he stated on a woman for whom it is healthy and attractive and makes her happy. My goal weight is 115 or less. But there is no reason to be nasty when stating one's opinion, which this guy was.0 -

For 5'3 or 5'4 yes 120 is fine. For 5'8 not as much.
What I was saying regarding men having no idea, is just a man will look at a woman and always get it wrong. I still get told I look 120 and hover from 10-15 lbs heavier than that right now.0 -
Interesting...Bumping to read later.0

When I have a date over I have my floor mat out. In reality its one of these cleverly disguised. Guys if you need some good SCIENTIFIC filtering methods to weed out your ladies, please let me know. I don't subscribe to this magic flutter ferry in your heart and what feelings are. Next you will think that dwarves are going to fix all your shoes.
130+ is an early night and a boot out the door. Its just my personal preference in women.0 -

IRONY OF PEACE BAHAHAHAHA Goal weight 115, says 120lb is underweight
WOMEN LOGIC, it blows my mind0 -

Really?
And yes, I have every idea. I coach women and men for comps as well as myself. I know exactly what I'm talking about.
Yes, his comment about overweight women was a tad harsh, but you'll find a vast majority of people will hold that preference even if they don't vocalise. The silent majority.0 -
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.0 -

Except perhaps some young fool who did the same for every woman in the world over 120lbs. It was just harsh considering that ISN'T a healthy weight at a lot of heights... Myself I'm not demeaning women who do weight that, because I have. But I also wasn't healthy at that point.0 -

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.0 -

I'm a woman and straight, but they are beautiful!

Every time I get weighed at the doctor's office by nurses who weigh people every day, the assume I'm 20 pounds lighter than I am. Not that I'm complaining. It just proves that you cannot tell by looking.0 -
These questions always cause controversy . . . men, remember to be gentlemen. No reason to use this as a forum for insults.
As for my wife and I, we both prefer fit people. She's now 40, 5'7", 120 pounds most days, works out 5 days a week, is toned and fit, and eats a healthy diet that includes the occasional beer and a little chocolate every day. And h*ll yea she's hot and she's mine!0 -

For the record, bondbomb is one of the hottest girls on mfp. She should be something to set as a baseline or at least a reference of what is pertty much awesomeness.0 -
ive always found that people become more attractive once you get to know them and know their personality
Yes! A great philosophy for life and happiness, but not one you'll see put into practice at a hook-up bar.
So, you've got to be honest with yourself about what you are looking for. A superficial affair or a soul mate for life?
If the former then looks, money, power and skill in the carnal arts are probably all you should consider.
If the latter, then you need to dig deeper.0 -

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.0 -

I'm sure this opinion has been expressed.
Overweight girls are just fine and plenty cute.
Obese anything is unattractive...Aside from plain ole sexual disinterest, it shows that our lifestyles are on two entirely different plains. It's not pretension..just not for me.
Footnote: No matter how great a person's looks/features are..they will only captivate you for so long. There needs something significant anchoring that attraction.
ooh baby you're so smart!
