    Nope :)

    I can honestly say that I've gotten to the point that I want to be healthy and I expect the person I am with to want to be healthy as well!

    It's really weird, I'm a big girl, but i've dated very fit men. I think maybe im a secret fetish to them? Who knows, but I persoanlly am not really attracted to "plus sized" men, just because sex between two fatties would be really hard. Plus i want someone who would help support me in my journey to a healthy life, not hinder my progression by bringing home mcdonalds everyday or wahtever. I do like thick men though, like 6'4 260 type men, but not where they breath hard just from goimg from one part of the house to another.

    To quote Lamar from Revenge of the Nerds:

    "Don't judge by looks, like a book by its cover. You may miss a friend. You may miss a lover."

    LOL! Team BIGBOYS

    My husband is a big man :) I like him bigger than sticky any day!!! He's 5'11/6'0 and at 210 lbs.

    Mmm, no.. I have been out on dates with bigger men, but it wasn't my thing. I like skinny guys.. It gives me a sense of control I guess?

    Also, I'm only attracted to thin, toned androgynous women. I do however think women on the normal to larger sprectrum are the most beautiful.

    No. I made an exception once and the guy simultaneously undermined my attempts to maintain my weight, while "joking" he'd dump me if I gained weight. When I pointed out that I'd never made an issue of his weight (he was very obese), but it wasn't something I found appealing, he said, Too bad, I'd made my decision when I started going out with him. As if that was the end of it.

    After that, I decided I would never feel bad about rejecting someone on the basis of his being overweight, having bad skin, or any other thing I can't stand.

    It doesn't pay to be nice. :smile:

    I like boyishly slim men. Preferably with hair.

    No, it's just not me. Sorry. I don't mean to sound rude, but I wouldn't. I wouldn't even consider it or think about it.

    No.

    I used to be there, and I work(ed) hard not to be anymore.

    For that reason, I expect them to do the same.

    And, we'd have a few more things in common if that were the case.

    fatty sex isn't anything more difficult than normal sized sex, promise. Now pregnant fatty sex was a challenge...
    I started dating my plus sized man when I was very fit and thin. I gained a lot of weight with him, but that was ME not his fault. I also had 2 pregnancies with him in a short time frame and I overindulge while pregnant in a major way. That was 6 years ago and now that I'm plus size he still adores me. I'm trying to get back to where I was when we fell in love the first time because he deserves a hot trophy wife :) not because he prefers me thin, he prefers some meat honestly.
    But hell yeah, I'll date plus size men, same criteria as smaller men - I want a great personality and someone who I can laugh with.

    Totally would. Just depends on what I find attractive about them (if anything). I have seen some plus size women who put waif thin women to shame in the attraction department. For instance... Mia Tyler... oh hell yes!

    And for those who say no, hopefully people don't get all bent out of shape over it. We all have our own tastes. And that's ok. To each their own, and all that jazz.

    My boyfriend is 6 foot, and he said he weighs almost 300 pounds. And I know i'm bad at looking at people and guessing weight but he doesn't look like it to me. He's a totally sweetheart, I don't really care what he weighs! He's the best!

    If the guy is kind, loving, and courteous to other people I'll give him a go. I also generally prefer guys that are over 6' with a thicker build and nice broad shoulders with big strong hands. In fact my husband is 6'4" and is really strong!

    I don't know if I would or not but right now my boyfriend who isn't overweight might as well be he does nothing but go to work and sits around we do nothing. He is to bed by 730/800 pm so it doesn't always matter if they are overweight or not. Heck I would just like a guy who wants to something together.

    I always find chubby, unshaved, long haired, geeky looking guys so much more attractive than a skinny or muscular guy, so you're not alone. Your BF is cute, he looks like Jon's brother a bit in the pics i've seen.

    Some fat men are appealing and others are not. Some men look weak and feminine when fat and others seem strong and manly even tho fat. If they are really funny and smart and makes me laugh, well, that would be great.

    yeah, he's the sexiest thing i've ever laid eyes on. He's also over a foot taller than i am: makes me look like a midget

    you know what i hate?

    when people see someone my size-- average
    with someone his size-- Plus size

    they almost always assume I have low self esteem, or that i'm "settling"

    psh. my man may be brilliant, handsome, witty, educated, and a creative genious

    but he's also joyfully plush.

    and though i'd love him if he suddenly lost 250lb

    i find him incredibly sexy just how he is

    I have before...dont see why I would not if one ever came into the picture. If I am physically attracted to them then why not....as long as they have a personality to go with.
