    I like a girl who's happy with herself, likes the way she looks, and as such is confident about herself.

    Sadly, society ****s with people's minds...

    Translated: Bones are for a dog; Meat is for a man.

    Love this.

    :sick:

    I HATE the above saying. It's just ugly.

    Then there's: The closer to the bone, the sweeter the meat. :-P

    *My dad actually told me to say this to anyone who said I was too skinny! I never actually have but sometimes you've gotta fight fire with fire.lol


    WHY SOOO SERIOUS?!!! lol I like it too but I can also see how it can be considered rude.
    Skinny Girls are worshipped in the entertainment world… it’s ok if girls with “meat” have a couple playful quotes right?!!
    You’re beautiful too! Hey you even got Brad Pitt on your team ; )

    I'm sure they didn't mean it with disrespect. We just live in a society where Skinny is Idolized. & there's tons of pressure on little girls, women. etc.
    I know ALL WOMEN OF ALL SHAPES are always a little insecure & so critical of their bodies. We are our own worst critics!

    Like I said in my post there's so many men out there with all different preferences. Some love skinny, some love bigger.
    Whatever!!!! It's just important to find someone who will LOVE YOU BEYOND YOUR PHYSICAL BEAUTY!!!!

    So, because "skinny girls are worshipped in the entertainment world", it's okay to make fun of them? What about Adele? She's pretty worshipped, so I can call her fat and all that and it's okay, because she's famous. That's bullsh*t.

    To say it wasn't meant with disrespect is a cop out. It was obviously an outright disrespectful quote. Just because skinny is idolized does not mean only the fat girls have the pressure on their shoulders. Get real.

    :noway: Oh man! that's what you got from all I wrote?!
    Skinny girls are worshiped for their bodies (in the entertainment industry) not their talent like Adele so that was a bad comparison.
    Like you wrote "Then there's: The closer to the bone, the sweeter the meat. :-P " .. i think that's cute, I'm not offended. but could take that to offense if I cared.

    Skinny people make fun of fat people... Fat people make fun of skinny people.. black vs white vs hispanic vs whatever.....
    A lot of people "make fun" of people... & mostly to "make themselves" feel better. It's all a bunch of stupid insecurities.

    & back to the Skinny Vs Fat topic. How many girls starve themselves to look like these skinny models? Throw up after every meal? like come on...
    I didn't write the comment, i did stated that I liked it & also stated how it can be offensive.

    If your happy the way you are you shouldn't care about what others say!!!
    It's really not that serious.
    This is MYFITNESSPAL site... obviously your here to either maintain your weight, Gain, or lose. Either people are happy with themselves or need a change. If people decide to make up a few playful (yes I said playful) quotes to feel better SO WHAT!!

    SKINNY- The closer to the bone, the sweeter the meat. :laugh:
    THICKER- Thicker the berry the sweeter the juice (however it goes) :laugh:

    Both quotes were made up so people can feel confident about the skin their in!

    Jokes sometimes are offensive, racial, or etc.... learn to laugh!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
    (or you can be>>:grumble: ) lol

    I know ALL WOMEN OF ALL SHAPES are always a little insecure & so critical of their bodies. We are our own worst critics!

    So why is it OK for people to say nasty things about skinny women, then? If they're already beating themselves up enough, why add your voice to it?

    I had a friend in high school who, at 5'7", weighed 99 pounds. And no matter what she did, she COULD NOT gain weight. She wanted at least to weigh 100 pounds and she ate and ate and lifted weights and did all the right things, but her metabolism just kept her at 99. And I know a lot of women like that. So just because the entertainment industry casts skinny women in movies, it's OK for the rest of us to say nasty, rude things?

    And what does that say about the men who love them? They aren't real men? They're somehow not good people because they fell in love with women who are "bones"?

    It's rude.

    Read my other post cause really I don't care about fat or skinny. Skinny girls have their quotes, meatyy girls have there's.
    It's really not that serious but hey if you all want to be uptight than you have that RIGHT!! lol :laugh:

    "Eye of the beholder." To each his own, and more importantly do YOU like what you see in the mirror. My personal preference is a "fit" woman, not skinny nor chunky. She's still an obvious woman, but has worked hard to become a fit woman at that. Don't worry about muscle, it will take care of itself when you lift and workout and eat clean. Get fit, and your body will fall in line. And after you put in the hard work, YOU will love what you've accomplished...and not really give a damn what the guys think!

    This.

    You are my hero.Your words were actually hotter than your profile picture! :smooched:

    I had a friend in college who spoke Spanish and used to say this in Spanish: Los huesos son para un perro, la carne es para un hombre

    Translated: Bones are for a dog; Meat is for a man.

    Disgusting phrase.
    Body shaming skinny women is not okay.

    This. That's such a stupid phrase.


    .....says the skinny woman. I think she meant it as a joke. I hope you did not lose your sense of humor as you were losing weight.

    Really?


    Really, is she skinny? Looks that way in her photo. Really, did I think she meant it as a joke? Yes. She just forgot her little smiley emoticon. Really, do I hope they did not lose their sense of humor? Absolutely. Not having a sense of humor would be so very sad. Very sad indeed. Really, it would.

    LOL People have no sense of humor anymore.

    Skinny jokes, Fat jokes .. whatever!!

    LET'S PUT A SMILE ON THAT FACE :laugh:

    and like I wrote on my other post:

    "Skinny people make fun of fat people... Fat people make fun of skinny people.. black vs white vs hispanic vs whatever.....

    So I can say that you being fat made you funnier?

    NO. Now you are making it personal to her when she was only trying to justify another person's comment.
    ... that comment whoever made it didn't make it specially to anyone. You writing "YOU being fat made YOU funnier" when you could have easily said "being fat makes fat people funnier" & she can have a comeback like.. "skinny makes you uptight" (bc they are always hungry.)

    Like come on people, why take things personal. We are all here for the same reason>>> TO CHANGE!!! (lose, gain, or maintain)

    This is the "chit-chat, fun, and games" section... stop getting so offended.

    In my opinion, if a guy is Insisting on a slim,or skinny woman, he may just be lacking in a certain department. Knowing that a woman with a little more meat will be much more to handle if you are "inadequate"

    Just my opinion dont shoot me!

    lol best quote of the thread.

    Body bashing (fat or skinny) isn't okay.

    Don't try to alter yourself for a man. Do what makes you happy. Doing any kind of major change for a man usually ends in disaster.

    Guys-I'm curious...I'm 5 foot 4 and trying to figure out a goal weight that will be healthy, and look good as well. lots of pics here show people that are total muscle, some are overweight, and some are 'average' for lack of better words. So my question is...would you rather have a super skinny girl or a girl with some meat on her bones? What's a good weight to be at and look healthy, yet on the skinny side?
    depends on her face....could be either way and if she's sweet. I do however go crazy with booty, if it's meaty or if she's thin she has to pack a round booty too :P

    I like both bones and meat...lol
    no seriously, if the girl feels comfortable under her skin, and just takes care of herself without being too obsessed about the weight, that's fine.
  • All I can say is any woman in a Steelers shirt is a good start.....because I have dated tiny to plus size. If you wear the Steelers shirt you might get my attention....whatever happens after that .....

    But a healthy weight for you is a healthy weight for you. You are going to be whatever you are going to be. Be happy with it and others will be too.

    Sorry guys but I have to do it....Yeah Steelers! The Nation has spoken!

    My dog loves fat more than bones actually. He got into some chicken skin in the trash that I threw out and almost bit my arm off when I tried to get it away from him.

    For me it all depends on the woman and body proportion/build. No woman looks good as a bag of bones, and most women look phenomenal with a little meat on their bones (whether they believe you when you tell them they look great is a different story). You don't need a perfect 6 pack, to look great, but a little definition/tone go along way.....
  • A little meat on the bones is always a good thing. I guess cause I definitely have some on mine.

    That must make naturally skinny women feel SO GOOD.

    Yeah, people have really got to stop with this quote (which we have all heard). Does this mean that a slender woman can only be in abusive relationships and should not leave because she won't ever do any better (as abusive men like to say). Like it or not, statements like this are unhealthy for young girls to hear while growing up and leads to no good. I'm not trying to be difficult, just that I had to grow up with this, with my slender mother in abusive relationships and low self-esteem (and they abused me too). I know people aren't going to stop with this statement, but maybe by saying this someone will think twice about it.

    it depends on the girl. some skinny girls are absolutely beautiful, some with curves are beautiful. i'm a fan of any number of them on an individual level.

    If the face is beautiful it really doesnt matter what body type you are as long as your body type is not an extreme of each side of the coin. ie, anorexic or obese.

    Does it really matter? Are you really going to model and shape your body based on what random internet guys say they prefer?

    I'm going for what looks good to myself in the mirror. Don't really give an eff what others think.

    Exactly. It is a personal journey. You are so in the wrong head space for success if you create your goals around what others like or prefer.

    Hey! I resemble that remark:)
  • I've been rail skinny. I've been athletic with muscle definition. I've been curvaceously fat (thank God I gain in my boobs & butt!). No matter my size, I've never had a man complain about my shape/size. Confidence is *THE* most attractive thing about a woman (or a man, for that matter). Even when I was 200lbs+, I strutted my stuff with my head held high. I have *SO* much more to offer than what I look like. So do you. Go by how you feel instead of aiming for a number on a scale. I know that's easy to say & hard to do, but numbers don't reflect muscle gained in a positive light. Feeling strong, physically & mentally, is more important than a number. Good luck on your journey!

    I hate that quote that quote, boys love meat! (A cows' meat yes, are you comparing yourself to a cow?) :sick:

    @sereneee - yes, respectfully to the beautiful women on MFP. It's a matter of preference, and lets not use those terms.

    @all For me, I love women with large, natural breasts. Too skinny is not attractive, and I am more attractive to women that are active with curves :love:

    I like sweet and spicy seasonings with a nice thick gravy

    lol!!! love this! :flowerforyou:


    I find it a bit alarming that the OP needs someone else to set a formula on how one should look, based on men's preferences! That attitude definitely doesn't fall within the criteria of "sexy" or "confident" :wink:
