  • They would have to have the most amazing personality in this world. And still.. probably not.. I'm a horrible person.

    No you're not, I don't care how amazing they are, I still wouldn't.

    I have before, both on the female and the male side. Size is a non-issue to me. I would do so again if I wasn't married and the right person happened to be a heavier person.

    Unfortunately no, and i know i only got asked out once or twice when i was fat and i always made up a reason not to go.... Maybe partially because of how i felt about myself im not really sure.

    yes :3 but not because they are plus size.
    i would like a guy not because hes skinny, tall, short, fat, slim, plus size or muscular, but because he took the time of day to say hello : )

    I don't have any preconcieved ideas of what a man needs to look like for me to date. So I would if I was attracted to his personality.

    These pictures don't exude sex appeal, but it's not because they're skinny. Don't be a hater.

    But yeah, weight doesn't seem to have much bearing on attraction for me. I don't have a particular body type that I would go for. I have dated guys with different body types... And there's a lady at work that I have a big crush on, who is pretty heavy. It's really not about the weight.

    Absolutely. I have in the past and would again. I'm more concerned about their personality than their size.

    Depends on 'plus sized'

    Football player plus sized yes
    out of shape plus sized (as in 300+) probably no.

    I don't mind a little pudge...if they're geeky like me I instantly fall for them, regardless of any previous 'set' standards of mine...haha. Their awesomeness level has to be 9001 or more...if you know what I mean ;D

    ITS OVER 9000!!!

    Hell yeah!!!! XD

    Of course I would. I only date people I'm attracted to, but there's a hell of a lot more to attraction than body size.


    I agree!!

    I've dug overweight dudes before. They were really smart and hilarious though. For me, you gotta have the personality if ya have the chubs. My current boyfriend of 4 years is in shape and has a brilliant personality though. So win win, I suppose.

    Yes, and I have for the last 8 years. I actually prefer big, as long as they're also healthy. Unhealthy, with little care for their body...no thanks.

    Depends on what you mean by plus size. I tend to think that men can be plus size and still look good (usually don't think that about women though... which is unfair). There is a certain cut-off point though.

    I have dated plus size guys but I am a lot more attracted to thin guys. I like the scrawny type =] Like my boyfriend

    I always prefer guys chubby ... I hate to hug them and feel im hugging a broom stick, or that im embracing myself. And also like taller guys. So if they are tall and kinda chubby they gotta be XL or 2xL..
    My bf is 6`2¨, and is 2XL

    If they are confident about themselves and have a great personality, then yes. If they sit and mope and complain about how fat they are without trying to change it, then no.
