miss_jaclynrae Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 You must not be living in US then. You look like a size 4-6 with US sizing or maybe even less! I most definitely DO live in the US. Thanks though, I honestly like to think that I just know what to wear that accentuates my strong points.
ThaWholigan Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 You must not be living in US then. You look like a size 4-6 with US sizing or maybe even less! It's her height that makes her look skinnier than she is. Size 6 would be rather skinny, especially for a tall girl. I don't think she looks that slim, but her size is very good for her height. 2
mesmerized Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 I most definitely DO live in the US. Thanks though, I honestly like to think that I just know what to wear that accentuates my strong points. lol, maybe it's cause of your height then. You look slender in your pictures. 1
Eternal Sunshine Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 It's her height that makes her look skinnier than she is. Size 6 would be rather skinny, especially for a tall girl. I don't think she looks that slim, but her size is very good for her height. Exactly. Most people don't realize what a difference height makes. 5'5" size 12 would look very different to 5'10" size 12. Women generally just say "I am a size x". Given that national height average is around 5"5', people automatically associate size 12 with heavy. My best friend is 6'2" and US size 12, and she looks pretty skinny. 3
three dog night Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Simple Universal Rule: Men are straightforward and predicable. Women are complex and unpredictable.
Leopard Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Because if she actually looked for a guy who was as hot as she was, she would die single. Hot girls always always have to lower their standards if they want to date. They don't have a choice.

What a bunch of nonsense Go to any gym and you can find guys who are nice, good looking, big muscles, usually very masculine, etc... Do you live on planet neptune?

My best friend is 6'2" and US size 12, and she looks pretty skinny. In the States, they make the sizes bigger just so women don't feel so fat. I'm a size 6 and when I went to the states there were dresses size 0 that were too big!! I couldn't believe it, i'm not THAT thin for crying out loud.
Leopard Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 What a bunch of nonsense Go to any gym and you can find guys who are nice, good looking, big muscles, usually very masculine, etc... Do you live on planet neptune? Why do all men think muscles=sexy? The guy himself has to be good looking. Adding muscle to an ugly dood won't make him hot. At least not to me.
brahmabull117 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Why do all men think muscles=sexy? The guy himself has to be good looking. Adding muscle to an ugly dood won't make him hot. At least not to me. Pretty sure I included "good looking" in that sentence My point remains the same. The real problem is that there are tons of guys you would like who are hot, masculine, etc... You just don't want to approach them cause you're terrified of rejection. I have at least 5 friends like that who look like beefcakes and are nice as can be. It's not that rare If you don't want to go after what you want, then you're gonna settle for what comes to you - which obviously isn't the kind of guys you want approaching you. That's life
Leopard Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Last time I checked, boys chased girls. I will never asked a guy out or go after him. I have never chased a guy, and I find it so unnatural to do that. If a hot guy I want isn't interested, then he isn't interested. I'm not the kinda gal to chase boys. LOL. It sounds funny even saying it ADD: The kind of guy I want will also be the kind that will approach me. So if I see a guy I want who doesn't approach me, then he isn't a guy I want, just a guy I would do
brahmabull117 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I'm horrified of rejection so I'll sit there and bitch and moan that no hot beefcakes exist when plenty of them exist, I just don't have the confidence to approach them so I'll pretend like they don't exist. Girl talk translated into English Besides it's not like you have to propose to these guys. Just saying "hi, hows it going" and being friendly will often be enough for the man of your dreams to ask you out but of course you won't do this because you're an average female and you avoid approaching men like the bubonic plague due to your fear of rejection. If you're not willing to at least do that, then don't complain that those kind of guys don't exist Edited July 21, 2012 by brahmabull117
Leopard Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 The fact that you're getting so defensive only tells me you are insecure
brahmabull117 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 The fact that you're getting so defensive only tells me you are insecure Insecure about what? What do I care who you date? I'm just tired of women saying that there are no x y z guys when plenty of them exist. The problem is you expect everything to be handed to you on a silver platter because you were born with a vagina and don't even want to put in the most basic amount of work (as in just saying "Hi, hows it going") to get what you want If that's the case, don't sit there and complain

Maybe you should add her being born with tits too!
brahmabull117 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 I don't recall Leopard ever complaining, she seems to be quite happy with who she is with. uh what? She talks 24-7 about how she's settling for her BF and how she wishes she could be dating a guy who is good looking/masculine/etc... She would dump her BF in a heartbeat if somebody like Chris Hemsworth or Robert Downey Jr approached her (not celebrities, but regular guys who have similar appearance/personality)
brahmabull117 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Appears as though you are placing more value on a vagina than she is. Maybe you should add her being born with tits too! Her entire point is this "I'm a woman and I'm entitled to a man that looks and acts like a hollywood celebrity without doing anything on my part"
snug.bunny Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 I know this really hot girl who is dating this guy way under her league. He is kind of chubby' date=' bummish, and doesn't really stand out at all. She, on the other hand, is tall, good looking, nice ass, and attends university. ?????[/quote'] If it bothers you, you can always become a homeless chubster yourself...

todreaminblue Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) Welcome to LS!! She invites it by posting pics of herself. Not that she has anything to be ashamed of... not at all. If she wants to post pics of herself here, that's fine. But when you put yourself out into the public like that, you have to take the bad with the good. To be honest, it was alot more tame than alot of other stuff I've seen here. ... but to the topic.... I don't date 'fat slobs' anymore... and lots of people tell me I'm hot. (sorry, I don't need internet validation to prove that). Most of it isn't even an attraction thing... I've been physically attracted to men who were a bit heavier. For me it is mostly a lifestyle difference. Men who are heavier likely don't eat well, don't exercise much, or are overall... just have a much more sedentary life than me. It just doesn't work. So yes, I HAVE dated heavier men. It was because they were charming and funny and good people... AND I was attracted to them. Alas, our lives and goals were too different. She invites it by posting pics of herself. Not that she has anything to be ashamed of... not at all. If she wants to post pics of herself here, that's fine. But when you put yourself out into the public like that, you have to take the bad with the good. No human male or female invites or deserves abuse....by what they wear, by putting themselves in the public eye or by deciding to show what they look like....people don't have the right to abuse a female when that female shows this is who i am..to back up what that female was trying to say...would i show myself in a public forum......hell no....why? because in reality i have already dealt with abuse... and the fact that i cant cop abuse without being abusive back..havent developed that sort of mechanism..and reality is i shouldnt have to cop it in the first place..or have to turn abusive to defend myself....no person deserves to put someone else down especially someone they dont know that person at all.....who lets a stranger come up to them in a public place and spit **** all over them personally.......i would snap kick their knees out.....self defense under personal attack.....i dont support personal attacks on women verbal or non verbal in any sort of situation reality or internet....for that reason I was unable to disagree with miss jac because i did not want to add fuel to dickheads fire and supported eternal sunshine by reporting as well I don't date 'fat slobs' anymore... and lots of people tell me I'm hot. (sorry, I don't need internet validation to prove that). Why apologise you meant to be sarcastic....was that bracketed part necessary considering you felt the need to state you were hot too.....whether you were too show a pic or not, you too have put out that your hot and that is validating..... you begin validating again other people consider you hot and guess what you did on the same thread ....same as posting a picture of yourself......and you dont date fat slobs...... well here is my opinion....I dont date people who are not at my fitness or activity level because i will burn them out eventually.......i dont need to insult people and box them in a fat slob box...I would have friends who are carrying extra weight...do i at the mopment.....yes i do and whether i am or hot or hugely obese doesnt matter the reader of this post can think what they like..and if they decide to abuse me..... i hope that suddenly i might get some of miss jacs calmness vibes....but i doubt it.. also what you consider tame is not relevant to anyone else..because i dont agree it wasnt tame and so did others on here consider it not to be tame ..and i would hope that women would support and report abuse or bullying against me too.....being silent is just as bad as the abuse....speaking as a woman who knows abuse and had a woman stand by and do nothing.. i hope i havent offended you with my honesty but you passively agressively supported abusive behaviour towards another female..... i dont understand your motives for that.... to use sarcasm to someone who copped abuse who was calm and gracious.....is it jealousy?....thats the only thing i can think of.....explain your motives to me if i am mistaken.....deb Edited July 22, 2012 by todreaminblue
mickleb Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 being silent is just as bad as the abuse This is ridiculous.
RedRobin Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 to use sarcasm to someone who copped abuse who was calm and gracious.....is it jealousy?....thats the only thing i can think of.....explain your motives to me if i am mistaken.....deb Tough love. There are a handful of people here (both male and female) who cycle through pics of their attractive selves... why? Insecurity? Need for validation? Maybe they are using LS as an ad-hoc dating site? Who knows. I'm saying that if one posts pics of themselves, they are going to attract all kinds of attention... positive and negative. Nothing more complicated than that. I quoted the term 'fat slob' because that is the term the OP used. Also nothing to read in there. Do I think people who are heavy are actually 'fat slobs'. No, and I said as much in the next line. That I've been attracted to heavier people.. etc etc So pick what you like to pull out and criticize. Fine with me. I did post on a public forum after all...
Sanman Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 I never saw this Honestly? I am 5'10 and am a size 12. Does it make sense now? haha It makes more sense, but as other have said height makes a difference. Proportionally, I think you are very attractive. If you were something like 5'3"-5'5", you would be several sizes smaller with the same proportions. I call myself a big guy for the same reasons. I'm not really fat and would likely be considered average if I were not 6'1" with a large frame and broad shoulders (46-48 long jacket, but only a 36 inch waist). Anyway, attractive is attractive regardless of dress size. 1
RedRobin Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 ..and i would hope that women would support and report abuse or bullying against me too.....being silent is just as bad as the abuse....speaking as a woman who knows abuse and had a woman stand by and do nothing.. If I had a dime for every rude, obnoxious comment a man made to me in my line of work, I'd be a millionaire. If I ran to the authorities every time it happened hoping for them to protect me, I'd never keep a job. That is for sure. They only 'win' when you let them get your goat and it throws you off your path. There are lots of ways to deal with it. If your way works for you, good. I'm not a fan of using the 'report' feature unless the treatment is particularly heinous. It is fine if you thought it was. I did not.
