Does anyone else hate being called vuluptuous?

Ive never been called it but it would be awesome. Bettie Page and Maryln Monroe were both voluptuous
Bettie page was curvy, petite & curvy.
Marylin was a bit of a yoyo when it comes to weight, so you can't really categorize her body type.
So you cant call a petite person voluptuous?0 -
I always took it as a compliment. I know that I look so much better with a bit of meat on my bones! Happier too! Not to say that I could be a little less volumptuous in some areas; but just the same I like it much better than "oh you have such a pretty face"!0

Never known of any man who thinks Voluptuous means fat. It means curvy, busty, and HOT! to me and every man I have ever met. I like women to have curves, it is attractive to me. Just my opinion....0

Definately not Bettie Page.

voluptuous is a plus sized woman with good ratio.
Curvy is a petite woman with good ratio.0 -
That's funny! I can see it being a compliment, but when I'm feeling down and out and hear that, it doesn't make me feel better I know that much. LOL0

I call MYSELF a voluptuary - which is one of the forms of voluptuous...
which means someone who is into pleasure, the senses (like great smells, massages, etc) is sensual and maybe, perhaps, has a sexy body that is beautifully curvy.
The great writer Colette was a voluptuary who has a spectacular story.
The word I don't like being called is BUBBLY. Grrroooowwwwwllllll.0 -
OMG, I laughed when I saw this. I freaking love it!
I agree with most on here. I'd take voluptuous as a compliment. I'd rather be that vs. some skinny chick without curves.

I feel like it's just the nice way to say you're overweight.
Nope, I don;t. If it was good enough for Venus and Marilyn Monroe - it's good enough for me!! (I hope I don;t lose my big curves - my 13 month old likes my big mama boobies! and having a cuddly Mum!!!). 8D0 -
better than lumpy

Petite means small in frame & height actually. Also, anything below 5'6 is considered petite.
Eva Longoria & Nichole Richie are petite.0 -

It's also known that Kim K lies about her weight & claims to weight 100lbs.... she's plus size, she's voluptuous
Bettie was thin & curvy, big difference.
Also, before people think I mean curvy as in Kelly Clarkson or Christina Aguilera curvy, I don't, they're both just overweight now, not curvy.0 -
There's no denying that I'm overweight...so to be called vuluptous is awesome! I think it implies a sexiness with curves!0
