Teddy and Jane Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 IMO an example of curvy would be the woman George is married to on Grey's Anatomy, the hispanic-looking woman. I don't remember her name or her character's name. But she is curvy. I like her character a lot and think she's attractive (sorry but unfortunately Izzy's a lot more attrative, though), she is...overweight. I hate saying fat but....that's good there are places for her on TV, though.

I hate saying fat but....that's good there are places for her on TV, though. Izzy is still not stick thin though. Meredith is. I'm wondering if guys would prefer Izzy to Meredith? GA seems to potray Meredith as "ideal" she gets the most men etc..
Shizz Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 I can't really say what I prefer. Curvy women seem to be more my leniancy, but I've also known some very lovely slender women to. I think in my case it purely depends on the woman, If anything I need a beautiful face, bigger women are ok if they fit that body type. (Not morbidly overweight, but big boned.) I was seeing a slender blond girl once, and at the same time pursuing this delightfully curvy little brunette. It all depends. (I also don't mind height wise. I don't mind tall or short, unless their like a midget. Sorry, but thats just not me.) One of the things that really turn me on though is an athletic female. Not rippling muscles, but a toned, woman who is in shape is infinately more fun in my experience than a barbie doll. They also tend to be slightly randier in experience:p (I love female volleyball, for all the apparent reasons.)
DutchGuy Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 95% of the girls I know are white and slender. Not much black, latin, curvy girls around here. So our distinction between curvy and fat is a bit off.
cutegirl Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 I'm a size 0 and eating Coldstone ice cream right now I eat a lot, I am just blessed with good genes. In my opinion 150 lbs is pretty darn big... not attractive. I like curves but you gotta be toned and have flat abs with definition. Curvy women who I think are beautiful are Salma Hayek, Carmen Electra, Yasmine Bleeth (before she was a cokehead), Scarlett Johansen. Being a woman myself I don't think overweight women are very attractive. Full figured people are always trying to make themselves feel better by assuming that naturally thin people must be bulimic or anorexic. They can't accept the fact that some people are just BORN blessed and can eat A LOT and STILL not get fat. So they go on a mission saying models in the media are too skinny and an unrealistic ideal for women etc. It may be unrealistic for YOU, that doesn't mean it's unrealistic for ME. Ideally I think bodies who are healthy and toned/fit are the most attractive, like Jessica Alba, Carmen Electra.... I know some men like bigger women or whatever but I personally don't like it. I don't care what men like. Speaking for myself, I just find it unattractive.
cutegirl Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 ok is this curvy for the LS definition? http://www.alwaysforme.com/deltaburke.html lol, to me that's seriously overweight. If I were surfing for bikinis on-line and saw a model like that it would turn me off from buying. To me that's not curvy or full-figured but seriously overweight.
loveratud Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 I agree with cutegirl, fat people try to make out like society is against them, and making them look fat through distorted perceptions. They just can't seem to accept that some people have the genes that make them naturally thing. And those who don't work hard, every day to look good. My favorite is when big girls say, "Well I started working out all the time and eating right!" Well that's commendable, but they don't let half sane people out of the nuthouse, and people don't buy half built cars. Let me know when you get "there." Fat people people and their feelings of entitlement. Sheesh.

I totally agree, I think a lot of overweight women are bitter because they are generally not considered attractive in society and therefore are constantly blaming the media for placing unrealistic expectations on women or blaming the fashion industry or blaming the slender women themselves by accusing them of having eating disorders or not eating. Point is they always want to blame someone because it makes them feel better inside. They just cannot accept the fact that everyone is created differently. If most people ate the way I do they would probably blow up like a house. I know people who eat very little but gain extremely fast, while some people eat a lot and just don't gain. I noticed quite a bit of overweight people are very bitter and always like to make sarcastic snotty remarks about slender people, when the problem is something that actually lies within THEM. They don't want to accept that they are the way the are and always have to blame it on someone else. Women are usually quite catty and competitive with each other but overweight women are even worse, but I guess if I was 160 lbs and all I saw was slender women being idolized everywhere I might be bitter and start pointing fingers too instead of doing something about my own body.

Plenty of compassion coming from someone who's a size 0 and doesn't have to work at it... I'm a size 0 - 2 Canadian size which is smaller than you. Shall I make fun of how fat you are and how you don't do anything about the extra weight you're carrying since you're eating ice cream and not out exercising off the pounds?

People who are bitter and constantly blaming something or someone for their weight don't deserve my compassion. These overweight women don't have any compassion themselves, they actually make fun of naturally slender women to make themselves better. They reap what they sow. Also, why should I be compassionate? These women actually think they are beautiful. "BBW - Big Beautiful Women" they all are... Why would I feel compassion for someone who already thinks they are hot stuff? If they are so "beautiful" (as they claim), what is there to feel sorry for?

Some people have a much more difficult time with getting rid of those few pounds and might never do it because their bodies aren't naturally built that way. If you are naturally metabolically thin, it has nothing to do with willpower. I'm metabolically thin and I don't make fun of people who aren't. I also exercise and have always been athletic so maybe part of it isn't my metabolism, except that all my family are also thin. I prefer to see myself as lucky, rather than better. I won't mock larger people but if someone abuses their body by intaking copious amounts of fattening foods and doing nothing about it except to whine, then they don't have my sympathy or compassion.
cutegirl Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 Also, I don't think you have to be thing or slender to be hot. Examples of CURVY women who I think have bangin' bodies are Kim Kardashian and J-Lo. Actually I really like Kim Kardashian's (she's the girl who made a sex tape with Ray J) body a lot, I think she has amazing curves, yet she's still firm and toned. There's a difference between being curvy and fat. Curvy is like Kim K or J-Lo. Fat to me are those girls in the DeltaBurke swimsuits or Rosie O'Donell. If there's too much stuff jiggling that's not good.

Sorry, I think 150 lbs is pretty big unless the person is over 6 ft tall. Not obese, but it's pretty darn big. My boyfriend weights around 145 lbs... lol 150lbs for a female is kind of big...
Trialbyfire Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 Sorry, I think 150 lbs is pretty big unless the person is over 6 ft tall. Not obese, but it's pretty darn big. My boyfriend weights around 145 lbs... lol 150lbs for a female is kind of big... How tall and old are you and your b/f?
cutegirl Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 How tall and old are you and your b/f? I'm 5 ft tall and 29 years old and last time I weighed myself I was approx 88 lbs. I am small-framed and small boned, that's also part of why I don't weigh a lot. My bf is 5ft8 and a half and 27 yrs old. He used to weigh more when he was really into working out because he had more muscle mass but he completely stopped around two years ago so that's why he went down in weight... Sorry but I still think 150lbs for a female is just not very attractive. It's big. Do a google image search for "150 lbs". I just did one and the first result is for some diet co. There is a before and after pic. In the supposed before pic she claims to be 150 lbs. I don't know how tall she is, but from looking at that pic it looks pretty big to me.

You are underweight with a BMI of 17.2. Your b/f is in the midrange of Normal with a BMI of 22. I have a higher BMI than you do at 5'3" 105 lbs as at this morning with a BMI of 18.6, just barely in the normal range. I'm also 32, which is older than you. Why do I wear a smaller size than you? Is it because I carry less weight on my torso, carrying it in better areas? Does this make me better than you because of an "Act of God"?

Is it because I carry less weight on my torso, carrying it in better areas? Does this make me better than you because of an "Act of God"? I eat a LOT and I mean A LOT as in In N Out Burgers, steak, lamb, all kinds of stuff... I am just naturally small FRAMED and SMALL BONED, I mean my wrists and bones are naturally small. If I eat a lot my pants WILL fit more snug but for some reason it doesn't show in the scale in terms of pounds/weight. If I ate anymore I would probably literally explode. It's genetics. As for an "Act of God", I'm not religious and don't believe in God. I didn't say I was "better", I am merely stating an observation that overweight women tend to be extremely BITTER, and ANGRY and BLAME others due to THEIR own jealousies and insecurities. And all I said was that I find being overweight unattractive. I don't care if it is not politically correct to say so. It is merely my opinion and nothing more. 150 lbs for any woman is just not attractive looking, sorry. It's not attractive to ME. If someone was overweight and content to b so then I could care less, it doesn't affect me either way. I am referring specifically to overweight people who are BITTER and take it out on others and blame the media for their own misfortune.

If you prefer, we'll use "a chance happening". Here is your generalized statement. It was not directed to solely bitter people. It was generalized so that it targets "a lot" of people who you feel are overweight, thus bitter and blaming others. A completely different statement. I also eat a lot and still remain slim. So...what? It's an accident that both you and I can be this way and some others can't. Have some compassion for others who aren't as "lucky" as you are. Overall, you appear to lack compassion...period. Karma isn't very nice and can come back at you. Right now you're riding a wave of good fortune. Remember, your wave won't always ride high. Who knows. When you're 40, your metabolism could easily change and then you might be one of the "bitter" overweight people who are unable to lose a few pounds.

I know people who eat very little but gain extremely fast, while some people eat a lot and just don't gain. Yes, everyone IS created differently, which is why you should have a little less disdain for people bigger than you. As Groove Armadas track says "if everybody looked the same, we'd get tired of looking at eachother" I eat a LOT and I mean A LOT as in In N Out Burgers, steak, lamb, all kinds of stuff... I am just naturally small FRAMED and SMALL BONED, I mean my wrists and bones are naturally small. If I eat a lot my pants WILL fit more snug but for some reason it doesn't show in the scale in terms of pounds/weight. If I ate anymore I would probably literally explode. It's genetics. Good for you being able to eat so much junk and not gain weight. Unfortunately, its usually thin people who "eat loads and can't gaing weight" who end up having much higher levels of cholesterol, which is a risk factor for heart disease later in life. So I would watch the diet if I were you CG. How ironic that you, the Queen of the Bitter Women is criticising "bitter" fat people. I am tall, and about 130 lbs. I am hot.

Here is a direct quote from what my statement in an earlier post : "I think a lot of overweight women are bitter because they are generally not considered attractive in society...." Here is the crucial part : "A LOT OF OVERWEIGHT WOMEN"... Where did I say ALL? I never stated "ALL", just "a lot". I don't feel the necessity to feel compassion to anyone if they are bitter or hateful to me first regardless of their condition. I don't feel sorry for people who are hateful or bitter to me first due to their own physical condition. If someone wants to play and make the first move and I can play back. If someone was overweight but not hateful or resentful of me then I would be more likely to have a bit of compassion. I noticed a lot of overweight people are just bitter and hateful off the bat though.
Trialbyfire Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 I am tall, and about 130 lbs. I am hot. I've never seen you sb129, but I've always had the impression that you were hot.

Maybe they don't WANT to look like you? Jeez Cutegirl here you go again, making friends.
Trialbyfire Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 I noticed a lot of overweight people are just bitter and hateful off the bat though. I haven't so that's weird. I haven't noticed any difference in overweight people because they've always treated me the same way as the underweight or average person but maybe it's because I treat them the same because they are the same. We are not talking about obese people. 150 lbs is no big deal.
sb129 Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 I've never seen you sb129, but I've always had the impression that you were hot. Why thank you! How on earth you could think that merely from an internet forum is beyond me, but I am... Took me 28 years to be comfortable in this body of mine, and I am happy! Wonderboy loves me just the way I am. No bitterness here!!!
