Why do people try to 'push' men to date fat women?

I don't know how to post gifs, so I am just re-posting this one.

Seriously I don't care who you date.

My take on this is that beauty comes in many forms.

Besides, not everyone who is fit is necessarily stick thin!!!!

...and then get very offended when these men say they don't date fat women?

I was recently called shallow online when I mentioned that I would not date a woman who is overweight. I wasn't rude or insulting about it, I merley said "sorry, i prefer my women thin or average". I was then shot down and told to "get used to my right hand" for the rest of my life and other insults, such as "your hardly Brad Pitt yourself". I mean what the hell?

Personally I do not think I was wrong for my standards against fat women and I don't think that that makes me shallow, nor is being attracted to thin/healthy weight women High Standards. I think its wrong to accept someone who is Overweight because you only support their unhealthy eating habits. I think that being overweight and not taking care of your body when in a relationship (or single) is selfish and shows that you have little care about attracting your mate. I can't get sexually turned on by big women. What do you think?

So what about this hypothetical?

You meet the girl of your dreams. She has, in your opinion, the perfect body. You fall in love. You get married. You have a kid or two. She gains 50 pounds and those curves that you once loved are no longer in the same places. For whatever reason, the love of your life decides that she prefers her new, more voluptuous body. Do you leave her because her body no longer fits your "type"?

I don't think less of you for having a base preference for thin/average women. Everyone has a certain look or body type they are more readily attracted to. I understand this as it isn't fair to date someone you could never be attracted to and would secretly mock. (My first boyfriend did this to me when he wasn't verbal)
On the other side of the coin you sound very judgmental of "fat" people, immature and most likely think you are a wonderful prize every woman would be lucky to have claimed was once theirs or is theirs currently.
I haven't had a twinkie in over nine years. I eat 1500 calories or less and have most days for the last yr and a half and have a nice strong body under my fat. I eat mostly vegan and don't dabble in much sugars, carbs or fried foods. I have a thyroid problem however that makes my metabolism slower than the typical women my age which means I may often times be more plump than my friends who do eat cakes and giant subway sandwiches on their own like it's nothing.
But according to you I must eat unhealthy and not work out because I am still overweight as per that BMI you guys loveto consult.
If you don't like"fat" women, fine. No one should force you. But it's not cool you automatically assum all "fat" people eat unhealthy.

I may or may not have snorted while laughing at Oprah and that damn book! :laugh:

Exactly.

Also, I wouldn't date you because you're a raging narcissist.

Interestingly, OP has posted in other string that he has an issue with women looking for men who are well-employed.
