hello all members,

Let me just share with you what I'v seen recently,

Yesterday, I came across a website that is diplaying a video about overweight women, as I'm one of them,

After watching the video, I become more confused and frustrated.

Here is the link to the video: ,

I just watched this video and almost can’t believe some of the stuff this guy says, and I am now left wondering whether or not this guy is right.

So, I am putting the question to everyone on this forum:
Do men find fat women attractive?
Do I have to become slim for guys to find me attractive?

Please take some time to view the video and then you can advice.


Yours,
Maggie
An overweight woman with a nice heart!
 
A lot of guys love women who are overweight. I have an uncle who has been with overweight women exclusively. If you love yourself - then someone will love you too. Be comfortable in your skin and accept yourself. It's for us that aren't happy with ourselves that seek a different body type - but it's all the same. Just like sometimes people like chocolate ide cream - and sometimes they like vanilla. It's all the same - just a little different.
 
There are some guys that prefer bigger women. However, I think the majority of guys prefer a woman that isn't overweight. And 'specially since we're on a fitness forum, you're going to find the overwhelming majority want a fit woman, not an overweight woman.

I wouldn't say a lot of guys love women who are overweight. I have a friend that only likes bigger women. He's a big guy himself-6'5" 300+ pounds. But he's about the only one that I know that would persue an overweight woman. Your uncle might like overweight women, but I think if you did an honesty poll with all the males you know, you'd find an overwhelming majority prefer not overweight women.

I watched the video. I agreed with some and not with some.

A lot of men love women for WHO they are not WHAT they look like.

I cannot vote on your poll because its only based on physical appearances, not 'whats inside'.

I've dated a few ultra skinny women, a few average women, and some overweight women (including my wife).

But we're not talking about love. We're talking about that initial attraction. Where you walk in a room and zero in on that hawttie.

For comparrison...
You go to a friends house and he has two friends over. The first looks like the girl in the middle

And another girl looks like the one to the right

Which one do you want to approach to talk to first? Not which one has the best personality. But which one are you more attracted to initially. And the question was not do guys find overweight women attractive. But do guys find fat women attractice.
 
ok ok ok...

slim women...hell i don't even mind a little muffin top.

but if she's got more chins than Chinatown...
 
If I had to say attractive, I'd say probably someplace between average to overweight is a person I can see myself with. Of course, that's what I'm saying now, but who knows what sort of woman awaits me in the future. I'd rather have a large, obese person who I love, rather than a beautiful, ultra slim super model who is dumber than a box of bricks. But on initial appearance, right off the bat, I'm attracted to average/overweight. Like I found myself not looking at slim people as much as someone with a little extra weight or a bit chubby.

For the TC, I wouldn't worry about being over or slim as far as finding a mate. You're going to find it really difficult and easy to give up. Just look at this, you looked at the website and now are confused and frustrated over it. So clearly, take that and you'll find yourself forever trying to "guess" what's wrong with your body shape to other men when in fact, none of that really matters. In my opinion, if you're going to get into shape, get in shape for yourself, not because you want to attract a mate which is always going to fail cause you're not doing it for yourself.

Think of this, and I've been reading a lot of articles on relationships, if you've been around the forum for a while, and one of the things I found out is that being "hard to get" is better than being "easy to get." What that means if that if you're easy to get into relationships, it's a might higher probability that you're going to end the relationship earlier. However if you make yourself have standards, and don't go out of the way to impress the opposite sex, then you're going to find relationships much more fulfilling and the two won't depend on whatever it is that brought you together. You can easily let things go such as issues with weight and personal hygiene.

So by you "getting slim" to impress the opposite sex, you're basically putting your body image into the relationship. That's like saying, "this is my body, this is our relationship, if my body isn't up to standards, this relationship isn't going to work." And that is a damn shame to go in like that. Instead you should go in as like, "these are my standards, this is my body, this is my life, this is our relationship, and if you don't like it, I'm not going to bother and you can leave whenever the heck you want to."

This guy makes me laugh, what an idiot.. But I wouldn't actively pursue an overweight woman, just a preference not a judgmental thing.
 
OMG. Reason number 3. That guy likes to hear himself talk. I am not offended and agree with what he says that it's likely true most guys think that way but on a side note... he is highly unattractive on many levels. He gave me a headache.
 
I don't mind a little padding round the waist so long as she has a great rack, but of course slim women are more attractive, just go to any bar and you'll be able to see that for yourself. And how often do you see a man leave his wife for his fat PA?
 
thnaks for your interest

I think this topic really matters & not just normal, I wish I had known that before...but it's never late for action
 
I love a woman who looks healthy. Even if that means she's got a little extra, just as long as it's distributed evenly. My gf of 4 and a half years and I split up after about 8 months and ended up losing a bit of weight, and her butt in the process. She since gained the weight back and about 5-8 extra pounds. I think she is beautiful and despite her complaining about how stockings bother her and her nice uncerware dig into her hips a little, I think she is perfect. Set aside the fact that she has a great personality, she has a great body. Now, if she gained 50 pounds, I would still love her, but I would be working a bit more with her to lose that weight. But being the fitness freak that she is I don't think we'll have to go down that road. Maybe when we have kids, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

In the end, I think men want a woman that feels nice when we hold, not a sack of bones, although the media is displaying these sickly looking women as being hot, which they aren't. I commend Gaultier for throwing in a size 20 model a while back to slap the media in the face (*in my opinion*).
 
only 20

I'm only 20 years old so i'd have to go wit the fit slim chick than overweight....but I'm sure as my years go by I will see the beauty on the inside, but right now its all about seeing how many knotches under the belt I can get...hate to say it lol
