I like boobs...they're curvy!2

If I like a girl, I like the body she is in, whatever it might look like.
Then again, I like bodies in general...all kinds of shapes and sizes.0 -

When women whip out that phrase, they are virtually always very obese. I guess round like a beach ball is technically "curvy'! It annoys the shizznit outta me though. As a fat person, I'm not okay with FA either. You can tell me you're "healthy" all day long, but it just isn't true. For gawdsakes, just own it and say you're fat! And if you don't want to change that, own that too, don't use wordplay and doublespeak to try to ease your guilt if you're NOT really ok with your fat. And don't ask anyone else to either. I'm fat, it's my own fault I got that way, I'm not okay with it because it is bad for my health, and I am working on it. It's slow, but I won't give up. End of story.3

First, what does FA mean? Fat *kitten*? Food Allergy?
Second, I consider myself curvy. I am height/weight proportionate, healthy BMI, not skin & bones, but certainly not obese. I have a bigger butt and while not huge, a curvy chest. I like the way I look and wouldn't trade it for anything. I personally don't care what anyone thinks about me because I am happy in my open skin nor do I really care about what other women look like.
fat acceptance
the controversy is that by allowing someone to say I feel good despite my size (aka obese) it encourages poor habits and encourages behaviors that are not conducive to health
My problem is with people who say they feel good and beautiful are very healthy BECAUSE of their morbidly obese size. They say they couldn't be happy at a lower weight. They also are encouraging others to give up the pursuit of a normal weight. They're trying to introduce a new normal in which extremely obesity doesn't matter.0 -
I was on an elevator by myself yesterday when this very HOT Female with huge boobs got on. I couldn't help myself, as I was staring at her Huge Boobs when she said "would you please press one"..........I finally came around about 4 floors later, and I should be able to open that eye in a few days!3

This is a really old thread, but as someone who has lived life as a normal weight person, a very obese person, and a normal weight person again, I just wanted to throw some thoughts in the mix.
1. I do feel as though those who are somewhat overweight can still be very active and fit and perfectly healthy. It is when you start getting into the 40+ BMI category that I feel like your healthy really is effected by your weight. It really is unlikely that someone with a BMI of 40+ is in good health, could run without getting out of breath, or walks up the stairs with ease. Someone who weighs 150lbs at 5'4 or 200lbs at 6'0 is probably healthy as long as they are active and workout/eat well even though they are technically still overweight.
2. Thin people can be unhealthy. Just because someone has a naturally thin frame and fast metabolism, does not mean someone works out or is healthy whatsoever. I know thin people who eat burger king daily and never get off of their couches. I know overweight people who try their best to eat clean and workout often.
3. Women who say they are happy being morbidly obese and wouldn't want to be a lower weight are full of garbage and those women are lying to themselves and others because they have accepted they will never lose weight, and are lazy and have given up. Yes, some women prefer to be curvier, and I can see women saying they would want to stay in an "overweight BMI range" because they like that look. But to claim you want to look like Tess Holiday and be 350lbs forever is a total lie. No one wants that. They are saying it because claiming they want to be overweight is much easier than dieting.
4. Regardless of how much you weigh, you should love yourself. You should love yourself enough to know that being THAT BIG is preventing you from living your life to the fullest.
5. Being "curvy" means having big boobs and a big butt and a small waist. It was never meant to describe a morbidly obese woman. In my opinion, men find this type of women the most attractive - someone curvy - thin everywhere except the good parts.
The point is, you should love yourself regardless of your body. No one should shame another person or themselves for being rail thin or for being huge. But you should always work to be healthy. Those are the type of people I like.

Is the OP asking other girls this question or guys? Most guys I know like some curves. Like Fergie said, " My humps, my lovely lady lumps." So classy.0

Do you see guys constantly hating on each other for their appearance? Or is this just a catty woman thing?2

Any woman is a real woman
My body, is my responsibility, I love it, take care of it and workout to keep it in the best shape I can, but that does not give me the pass to call out anyone who looks different than I do, be it thinner, bigger, curvier, more muscular, you get the point. do you, leave others alone!

How about.... Real women come in all shapes and sizes. If THEY are happy and comfortable with THEIR body, that's THEIR business and no one else's. I for one am not happy or comfortable in my own skin. I am not naturally overweight. My mindset is not that of an overweight person. Therefore, I'm going to do something about it. I know plenty of women who are bigger and they're rocking it and look great and more power to them. I personally can't pull it off and with my family's medical history, prefer not to.3

here's the gorilla in the room... curves... desirable? absolutely... each and every person has an ideal... and I believe100% that "Morbidly" obese people are hiding behind the FA for what they feel are very valid reasons... Hell I thought I was comfortable doing to myself what it was I was doing... adding a few ounces a week... I earned it... I deserved it... thankfully I was handed a serious dose of reality and am now working.... WORKING... to return myself to a fitter healthier state... SO...curves are cool, whether you see them from the front, back or side... there are varying degrees of curvature... some are more exaggerated than others... but for a woman to distinguish herself as "Real" because of her current physique, is just as wrong as someone looking at her and telling her she isn't real because she IS just plain ol' fat. I have been a people watcher my entire life... and in my decades I know this about people... we all come in different sizes and shapes...some folks would look "odd" if they achieved "normal". fact is... evolution has produced a very wide assortment of physical traits because some people were born to dig ditches, some people were born to tell people where to dig ditches, some people were born to reach the top shelf and others were born to see what is a the back of the bottom shelf...
who cares about shape? small minded people who feel inadequate about their place in this world... and that small mind comes from a malaise borne from a lack of ability to understand that the only thing that matters is being able to do 100 push up, 200 sit ups, 200 jumping jacks, 100 burpees, and 50 squat jumps in under 15 minutes.
Just kidding... what matters is being healthy... however one chooses to define it...work it or live it...
Emu out.2 -
What's this FA movement? Please not Fat *kitten*..please don't tell me that's what it stands for. Dear gawd no.0

I prefer what this man looked like before the gym. Just a smooth, well nourished, unripply, male body not built for showing off is more appealing to me.
Mee too! I thought I was the only one. I always prefer the "before" body builder pictures. Or the one immediately before the super built "after" pic. Some slight definition with a bit of extra meat on him is sexy to me.1 -

It's a catty woman thing1 -
"real women" . . . anything is just dumb.
fat acceptance and health at any size as general statements are not problematic, i see very few people using this to justify a guilt free existence of chugging mountain dew and eating fast food on the couch 24/7. it happens sometimes of course, but not at the level that people who concern-troll overweight people seem to believe.
most overweight and obese people i know are not happy at their weights, but deserve to accept themselves anyway and to practice self love. it's really difficult to move through the world in a body you've been taught to be ashamed of, a lot of people on this site know this from experience and have tried with varying levels of success to overcome their weight and health issues.
when you look at someone overweight, or obese, or even morbidly obese, you don't know if they are lazy or not. you don't know anything about them except their physical appearance. maybe you see an obese person eating 3 slices of pizza, and maybe they saved their deficit calories for it, maybe they already lost 50 pounds, maybe they're having a *kitten* day and wanted a *kitten* pizza. if it grosses you out to see people existing on their own journey that's on you, not them. even if they don't make any effort at self improvement that would validate their existence to you.
this curves are reserved for tits and *kitten* and not 'rolls' is just as dumb as the "real women blah blah blah" if you have no rolls sitting or bending then i congratulate you on all of your hard work and your effort, but don't forget that a lot of the rest of us are just trying to get by, to be healthy and strong and imperfect still.
seriously, what the hell happened in this thread?!?3
