Guys like heavier girls?

This is simply hilarious. Who cares what size a girl is. Everyone is beautiful in their own way. Some are big and beautiful and some are skinny and beautiful.

RIGHT ON!!!

First of all, BRAVO on this topic! I have had so many conversations with friends, family members, & complete strangers about this ... it never fails to drum up controversy/different ideas of beauty because everyone has their own opinion. Here's my two cents from experience: Being on the "bigger" side of the spectrum (size 14-16), I have many friends who are thinner than me...and I can definately attest to the fact that a man will check out a skinnier girl rather than someone bigger. Is it completely fair? No .. but heres the thing .. WOMEN DO IT TOO! Cmon ladies, lets not beat around the bush .... (I understand everyone has different taste on what they find attractive, and I think women tend to be more tolerable towards bigger guys, but nonetheless, hear me out =] ) ... if a well-toned, muscular guy was walking on the sidewalk next to a guy who was maybe 50 pounds overweight ... same height, same proportions etc, I can bet that the majority of women would look at the muscular guy rather than a bigger guy ... Again, this is on a first glance basis ... if you knew that the muscular guy was a ***hole or cheated on gfs etc, that MIGHT sway your preception of him, but going on just looks ... I can tell you right now I'd look at the muscular guy, any day of the week.

Thats the point I think that is being missed in this thread: Guys will check out women that they find physically attractive ( i.e: who do they wanto to sleep with -- as others already mentioned) ... It is a VERY different story of what type of girl a guy would want to get into a relationship with ... I know PLENTY of guys that will choose girls who aren't that thin, or aren't super pretty basically because they have a pre-concieved notion in their head that this "type" of girl will cheat (maybe its society telling them that, or maybe its just from past experience ... or maybe the guy is really insecure) or not be a good girlfriend or whatever their excuse is .... I'm sure ALOT of "thin/pretty" girls will tell you that they may get HIT on alot, but they may or maynot get treated with respect or that guys dont actually want to get to know them .

Again, going back to my own personal preference, I will check out a guy who is muscular, tall and "big" -- in the sense of muscles. not weight (another word to describe this type -- GUIDO ... blame "Jersey Shore" or the fact that I like italian guys, but this is what I like --- SO SUE MEE =p ) ... BUT !!!! The guys that I have actually had "crushes" on or been interested in ... (and who show interest in ME) .. have been just regular looking "joes" ... I dont mind a little bit of a belly, or if they dont have huge muscles ... it depends on how he is as a person ... I'd rather be with someone who can make me laugh and not make me feel like I should be on the treadmill all day and having a protein shake afterwards ... MORAL OF THE STORY: Its human nature to want one thing "in bed" rather than another thing in a relationship ... So I say, if your on this website to lose weight, keep at it! You're doing it for yourself anyways to make yourself more comfortable ... whether other motives include to get a bf/gf, thats fine .. but the main thing that your doing by losing weight is getting your confidence back , and no matter what weight you are .. THATS sexy

Marilyn Monroe was a sie 12 or 14 and was a sex icon.

Confidence is still the sexiest part of a woman.

:smokin:

It is funny because my husband loves tiny.....and skinny....which I am absolutely not! I put two pics on my fridge..One of what would probably be about 130 140 and one of a size 14 woman...He tore down the little one and told me the size 14 was hot.....I think it is the boobs myself.....Yep getting a boob job....lmao

Can't be true considering how "hot" the world thinks Pippa is. She is not even 100 lbs but yet "hot"? I’m all for the super-thin frame for myself personally but having the shape of a 12 year old boy being considered hot? Definitely news to me. Plus she’s a butter face so there isn’t anything else…

Not in my experience. I got far more male attention when I was thinner (and before I had children, and when I was in my 20s....in fact maybe the weight wasn't the issue!). My husband admits he finds me far more attractive now, than he did when I was a stone heavier. I think a size 6 (I assume you mean UK) is too thin, though. I don't know many men that find that attractive. Most men prefer their women in the healthy BMI range, I think they are programmed that way.

I am only 5'1 so at a size 10, I am definitely hovering between "curvy" and "fat". Since I have started working out, I haven't lost much weight but my waist has gotten smaller, my legs have definitely gotten toned, and I feel so much better! I put on my size 10s and feel great (I was an 18 at my heaviest). As a result, my husband, who has seen me through the weight changes (and 2 pregnancies) can't get enough of me. It's not my size, but my confidence and my happiness with my success that he finds the most attractive.

People like what they like. I personally like a man who is taller than I am (not hard to find obviously!), anywhere from skinny, to muscular to hefty (I kind of work on a sliding scale, I guess). I think Kevin James is just as adorable as Vin Diesel, who is just as hot as Ryan Stiles (yup, definitely a sliding scale!). For me, confidence and a fun personality is key to my finding a man attractive. If a man can make me laugh, no matter what body type he has, I will find him attractive.

haha. My mom had never heard this term before and we had to enlighten her! I think Pippa and her sister are both really pretty girls, though!

Who cares what guys like? Women: It's time to like yourself, be yourself and enjoy your body for yourself!

I prefer a curvy woman. My wife has a J Lo booty and I love it. She has what I like and that is confidence. A woman needs confidence. I dont like the looks skinny girls give woman with curves. I look at skinny woman and think " where is your booty? or eat a cheeseburger.

From a guys perspective;

1) It could be a security thing. If you are a bigger guy, it may be uncomfortable with a very small woman.

2) Every guy likes different things.

3) Maybe he would like to 'be with' the bigger girl, but I'm sure he would love to 'sleep with' the smaller girl. I mean we are guys after all right?

4) Guys lie. Just because a guy says he would prefer the bigger girl doesn't mean he actually does. If the question was coming from a girl who was a size 6 maybe the answers would be different?

Agreed. My boyfriend does like curvy girls - but curvy to him means nice T and A, but flat stomach and thin waist....curvy to other people may mean something else. I've seen very large women refer to themselve as curvy...so I dont know. He would not be attracted to someone that would be considered fat or overweight but says he likes curvy girls, by curvy he means nice breast/wasit/hip ratio....not fat.

Also the smaller I get, the more he wants me so I dont believe these men were telling the truth lol

I agree with your hubby but cofidence makes the woman sexy, hot whatever you want to call it. So maybe your confidence makes him want you

My understanding is that they guys like boobs and butt, but they also like a slim waist line, defined legs and arms. They want us to be smaller than them but not so frail we will break when in the bedroom.

Totally agree

My boyfriend and two of his best friends say the same thing...one of his friends always teases that now that I'm losing weight (I'm a size 14/16) am getting too skinny for them now. Haha...I always thought that guys preferred those thinner, leaner girls too...maybe not??

I haven't been able to get through this entire thread, so forgive me if this has been covered, but I have three words for your consideration:

Victoria's

Secret

Models

Yeah. Not size 16s, yet somehow I have NEVER heard ANY guy say "ewwww, look at all those ugly skinny chicks" when they've seen one. Just because you're a size 0/2/4 doesn't mean you're a stick, that you look sick, or that you can't have curves.

Not to be rude but those guys need to relize that Victorias Secret doesnt make a bra bigger than a c cup. LOL
