burning 4 revenge Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Im built like Andy Dick and yet I still think Im masculine
gopher Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 i'd say 20-30 lbs depending on height I agree with this, but she has to be healthy, active, and have energy....
e.clipse Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 5'5 1/2" and 115-117 lbs. I just barely miss. oh WTF, i weigh more than shadow, and i'm only 5'2". i really, really need to lose weight. oh and to answer the OP: i don't much like skinny guys. they will always make me feel fat, given that i will never be "skinny"--even at my thinnest, i was somewhere between 110-115lbs, and while my stomach was flat/waist was small, i didn't look "skinny." but, even regardless of that, i tend to gravitate towards guys who are not too tall, 5'10" at most (and even that is a lot, but, again, i'm short) and with "average" bodies, meaning that they can be chubby and i won't mind. skinny guys and muscular guys don't attract me at all. i like 'em with some meat.

Stockalone Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I won't date a guy who is fat. I draw the line at 20-30 lbs overweight. But even then, the extra weight will bother me. My ideal is a man who is tall (6+) and very, very lean (155-180, reliant on his height) but with some muscle tone. 155? I probably weighed that much as a toddler. No offense meant Shadow, there is nothing wrong with wanting a tall and very lean guy. I just hope this isn't a very widespread preference among the female population.
Lizzie60 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I don't have a standard for weight... I sure prefer fit and healthy weight... but if the guy is a little overweight .. it doesn't bother me... the height is more important..
burning 4 revenge Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 (edited) Does this look fit? http://gamesnet.vo.llnwd.net/o1/gamestar/objects/114015_main.jpg this looks good to me but def not skinny http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Bkwz7cXzKJc/SShRmrmYLGI/AAAAAAAAAIE/khVtcYQfqyQ/s400/unknown.jpg Edited January 4, 2010 by burning 4 revenge

It doesn't look right to me.
Linainverse Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Just went to a silly converter cause I'm aussie lol. I weigh 140, it fluctuates from 134 to about 142 though so I can never quite tell. And I'm 5,7''... I know as americans you guys would consider that overweight, but it puts my bmi at 22 (most of the time) - and I'm actually a size 4-6 by US standards so I can't see what the big deal is. And I work out all the time.. so I don't really worry about my weight.. more about how my clothes fit. Having said this - I would not date someone unless they looked healthy - if someone had a six pack but didn't actually work out or exercise I consider that undereating, and I couldn't date someone who ate less than me - even though I am a runner who could eat the world...

TheLoneSock Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 This is a continuation of Green's thread on dating overweight women. Guys and gals, what is the overweight limit that you are willing to consider when chosing a partner? Personally, I am ok if she is say 50 lbs over her ideal weight. Why? I think the big picture is important. If she takes good care of herself otherwise - say she has a beautiful face, dresses well, has a great attitude, is loving and makes for a great, loyal partner - I think she's definitely worth it! Guys, lets here it for great women! It depends on their height and how proportionate they are over all. But to guesstimate I'd say maybe 10-15 lbs. is the limit of what I'd be able to accept at first glance. I could sit here and say if they had an awesome personality and other things going for them I may be able to accept more, but really how would I ever know? I write them off before I get to know them, why? Because I'm not ATTRACTED to them. I'm fit, so are the girls I date. Fair trade, no need to compromise or 'settle'.
kiss_andmakeup Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I can't tell on the first pic, but on the second, her top is too small for her bottem. It doesn't look right to me. Seriously...reminds me of one of those botched butt-implant pics that was circulating a couple of years back (http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/archives/bad_butt_implants.jpg) Personally I like to date stocky but not obese men. I am 5'8 and usually between 112-117 lbs so somebody who is too big just doesn't feel right. Current bf is 5'10 and 190 which he will admit is a little heavy...but he's got that very compact build that makes a weight number deceiving. Plus we've been together for a while and I find I pretty much have a built-in attraction to him that will withstand anything so long as he's not obese. For the people freaking out about guys liking "underweight" women, I think pizzaman quoted 5'7 and 125 lbs...it is possible to be that size and not look anorexic. Some people just have small frames. Even at 5'8 and 115 no one would call me anorexic-looking, just petite (in size not height).

Some people just have small frames. Even at 5'8 and 115 no one would call me anorexic-looking, just petite (in size not height). You'll find most of those people on this forum raging about men liking skinny or fit women are just overweight. It's typical, the same kind of thing you'd see in person - overweight women hating on the pretty skinny girl. Even worse are the guys on here that think they have to put skinny women down in front of bigger women in order to make the bigger women feel good about themselves. It's pathetic. But hey, we all know the reasons behind it. The women want to be skinny, but can't; and the men want to be with skinny women, but can't attract them.
burning 4 revenge Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I dont think men are as hung up on particular body types as women are generally speaking I find skinny women sexy and curvy women sexy and so do most guys Sloppy fat isnt sexy on either sex though and thats just the way it is and theres no reason to apologize for that because its nature
