SEXUAL PREFERENCES SINCE LOSING WEIGHT?

This could be more interesting than sexual preference after stopping birth control. But not by much. Because that ****...that ****'s real.

But anyway--I don't think it changed at all from weight loss. I still like who I like.

You know, this brings up a good point. Wasn't there a recent study saying birth control messes up natual attraction somehow? I forget, but the point is, there is a lot of subconscious stuff we're attracted to without ever realizing it.

Yes. I am living proof that it is real. Ask my husband...haha. Sigh.

Oh no! I'm so sorry and I hope you find a solution that works for you! I know how frustrating it is to have hormonal changes that just kill all attraction. Poor guy...excuse me while I go feel guilty now.

Haha, it's not that bad. But yes, your hormones do incredible things to you. So, hormone changes from weight loss could certainly change attraction. I'm still attracted to my husband, but stopping birth control did change me (mostly because I haven't known myself off of it since I was 16). So, it's not exactly on topic, but: if you're a female on hormonal birth control and you're about to get married, stop taking it for a few months before you actually do. Haha. That's my non-medical anthropology-trained advice.

Don't forget to not get pregnant while you're stopping that BC though, just in case he isn't the one for you!

I don't know, as I get older, more experienced, having had a wider range of partners and having been, in some ways, a wider range of person, I'm a lot mellower about things like pnysique, but one thing hasn't changed. I don't like timorous men of any weight. Don't lack self confidence, or you'll increase my lack of self confidence!

Edit- oh, and I had my tubes tied. One of the best decisions I ever made, but obviously not an option for those who might want (more) kids someday!

No I am still attracted to the same types of people just thinking they may actually be attracted to me now lol...

I've now ventured to utilizing the remainder of my orifices.

No I am still attracted to the same types of people just thinking they may actually be attracted to me now lol...

Hahaha! This is what I'm waiting for:laugh:

I'm down almost 40lbs now and I don't think my preferences have changed any. I am a bit hornier these days with all this extra energy and greater flexibility so I gotta keep that in check

When I was overweight I only found fit guys attractive now that I am @ a healthy weight... Still not @ my goal fit I find a lil chubby guys attractive. Not obese but a lil overweight... I use my fiance's stomach to lay my head on like a pillow

Nope,i haven't really noticed a change...my BF is tall 6'2.5" and 190lbs and he has a lil belly, like he doesnt have abs,but i LOVE his lil gut,hehe..recently hes lost 10lbs and has been running & swimming (i like to think i encouraged him,hehe) and im kinda sad to see that his "lil gut" is slowly disappearing ( i want it to stay,lol }

But i guess,i like all kinds of guys,just not overweight men...:)

I haven't lost much yet, having just started trying, but I doubt my type is going to change. I definitely go for the gawky/gangly, tall and dark type. Glasses and a brain are a plus. Luckily, my husband fits all of those categories.

I think my first ever celebrity crush was Jeff Goldblum. These days, Zach Braff. I also have a weird thing for Alton Brown. Before he got all skinny though. It's all about the brains there!

I have never been the type to swoon over the Fabio type - big muscles and shiny hairless chests do nothing for me. Except if they're on Chris Hemsworth. He's the only exception to my geek-boy rule.

It hasn't changed yet, I still prefer the mountain men type :bigsmile: Or if they look like Thor

This my type of man too! I have always like tall men because Im tall and it helped me feel smaller...

IT'S ALSO WEIRD TO BE SMALLER THAN A GUY BUT I REALLY LOVE IT NOW.

what? it's horrible being bigger than a guy
