Are men attracted to overweight women?

[Jjaden]

I like women with a little extra on them ... I don't find women who are skinny or jacked attractive. I like femininity ... curves, soft, pleasing to touch.

I don't think that a woman who has slightly higher body fat percentage doesn't take care of themselves. I happen to think Kim Kardashian's body is amazing.

I agree that a few pounds more than being 'normal' isn't a big deal. Although where the weight is distributed makes a difference. A pot belly is not attractive.

But 'obese' is certainly more than a 'few pounds' and is not attractive by any means.

I see that my thick-hipped sisters are gaining some momentum

Not sure about obese though ... yuck.

I like medium size woman.I'm not into the 105 pounder with no boobs or ass.A 230 lb woman isnt doable for me even with the best personality.

The most attractive GF I've ever had was a 5'9" 150 lb hard body that was still very feminine.I'm a big man that weighs between 245-270 yr round so a slightly bigger woman is just fine with me.

Obese is unhealthy. I don't see why any man who hits the gym hard to have a rock hard body would want to have anything to do with someone that does not have the same intrest. Being healthy and fit is a lifestyle,and I'm sure if they are that overweight they would have very little in common. I guess I just think like a male but I aggree with Jayden. there is a difference between being thick and having rolls hanging to the ground over your jeans.

Sorry but I agree with Jayden and Workout Barbie 100%.
Nothing against overweight chix, they'll just never ever "Work" for me.
I commonly say "I'm allergic to fat". Lol
I just can't stand it, and of course I too read in to what it realistically says about the women.
Attraction and visuals are primary necessities, for men especially.
That attraction fuels great sex which in turn keeps any relationship happy and healthy.
And yes, I believe if I'm spending the time and discipline to present a great appealing package to the opposite sex or my partner and Lover, I expect the same in return.

i have been in this sport for ten years and ive dated many girls that had nothing to do with fitness. granted I am now engaged to a figure competitor but that doesn't change anything in our relationship. I never gave a shit if the girl hit the gym like i did, thats my bag...if its not hers, who fucking cares?
Fitness can be a lifestyle for those still learning. for those who are good at, it doesn't require applying every facet of your life to being successful at it, meaning that they don't need their significant other to be mindlessly going to the gym, reading bogus muscle mags and trying to learn how to diet. you have your life, and they have theirs. If you people really base who you are attracted to by whether or not they are in the premature obsessive fitness lifestyle that you may be stuck in, you are going to be a very lonely person someday.
ps - i guarantee that most of the dudes on here saying 'if i have a rock hard bod, then my girl has to have a rock hard bod too, I won't accept anything less' more than likely have a terrible body but they hopped on steroids and now they think they are greek gods....you're not

 

[WorkoutBarbie]

Oh my, I just got home and actually watched the video......! What a douche-bag, and I mean all around douche-bag! I thought we were talking obese women. All that is a load of bullshit.

You know Dtone, I've honestly been somewhat ashamed of my necessity for a solid appearance form women, it makes me feel a bit shallow at times but you know what?
I am who I am and I put alot of stake into appearance.
The way I see it, ure looks and bod get u in the door...ure personality, integrity, intelligence and chemistry keep u there.
I'm sorry but if a chick isn't smoking hot (To me) and doesn't rock my world physically, it's just not gonna last.

I totally agree. There are enough women who have the complete package - intelligence, personality, morals, beauty and physique that I shouldn't have to settle for a woman that is lacking in one aspect.

Having 4/5 things still only qualifies as 4/5.

If I am able to be with someone who is a 5/5 why wouldn't I be?

Which is exactly the position I'm in now, I was patient, never 'settled' and now I'm with a gorgeous, intelligent, generous and kind, and recently turned pro IFBB Figure Competitor.

Congrats on ure find brother!
I'm still searching, unfortunately I don't have the college ed, and upper income that makes "Me" that total package. Lol
Choices. =)
But for now I'm perfectly happy knocking off one after another 21-25 yr old server, bartender, wanna be stripper, etc.
One thing they all have in common, none are overweight!

Not really, it looks more like a MOD (Gee I wonder who) is manipulating the poll results to try and prove a point.

One thing they forgot, when you vote multiple times it doesn't change the total number of voters.

See when it says 26 total voters at the bottom of the poll?

If you calculate the total number of votes cast, the number is 37, which means someone has votes 11 times.

Wow isn't 11 the exact number of votes obese women have? Weird...

"Gasp" How is this possible unless someone was tampering with the poll.[/sarcasm]

That's why the percentages are screwed up also.

Did you really think nobody would notice when suddenly votes for overweight women went from 0 to 11 in 2 hours?

LOL

Careful who you go accusing there my son.

For the record, it was me who edited the poll, and I did that over the course of 3 days and not 2 hours like you so wrongly pointed out.

You've made you point over and over and over. Why are you so obssed with this.....lol

So, why was the poll "Edited"??? Just wondering, I mean a poll is opened to get an accurate, honest opinion.
If the mods are gonna edit, adjust, or tamper with the numbers in any way it's no longer an accurate poll in my opinion.
Just saying.

Thanks man, I had to be super patient and often wonder is there were any women past age 30 without serious emotional baggage, but my patience paid off and I found the woman of my dreams.

I bought a ring last month and am going to propose in the next month or so when the time is perfect..

Oh and she watched the video with me and her attitude was

'If the overweight women want a man who is the complete package, they should be willing to present a complete package themselves'

God she's the best....

Haha, I never said a name in specific, I just knew it was a mod, or done at the request of someone I might have offended in the thread.

I was upset because the thread started asking males for an honest opinion, and when it was given I had one female in particular jump down my throat, and basically tell me I don't know what men are attracted to.

She then proceeded to insult me personally, question my age and my education, all for providing an opinion.

I never made any personal attacks this thread, I was not pleased to be on the receiving end of any.

Out of respect for you, I'll let it drop tho, and stay out of this thread from here on.

 

[Miss Muscle]

You DID not provide opinion but you attempted to say it was FACT. If you had said IN MY OPINION I would not have received a shitload of PM's regarding this thread and you in particular.

You can have your opinion but don't speak for others. You can even speak for your buddies but why bother assuming everyone feels the way you do. Your posts stated all men. You also stated when somebody date's an overweight person they are settling, etc. When you put things like that it comes across as arrogant and ignorant. Perhaps in person it would not come across as so.

The big problem with that is that you are in the ladies section. Rules are a bit stricter here, and one of the many reasons is that a lot of women that come to browse ARE very overweight and extremely intimidated by a forum full of fit, confident individuals. Us female mods get tons of PM's from ladies who don't want to post on the board about their weight problems for fear of being ridiculed.

Moderators tend to be very diplomatic. When I give out advice I often remind people that everybody is different and your body doesn't always react as someone else's would. Same here. I might say the majority of men prefer fit women but I would not say all do. Especially since I know men who love fat and I mean fat women.

Your posts have come off rude, abrupt and arrogant. In this section it isn't tolerated if other members are complaining or upset. Don't take anything I said personally. It's just how we run this section.

I did not edit your poll btw.

 

[juced_porkchop]

10-20 pounds over is not what im talking about i could care less. i like a WOMAN, curvs, not a coat rack.
but over fat. like 50 or 100lb is NOT HEALTHY, AND DONT LOOK GOOD.

thats how i feel anyway.
i dont care if my girl work out but i want her to be healthy. and i want to get hard when i see her not go limp.


I like that it seems some are more willing to try ad be healthy but to me theres still no real excuse unlees you have a medical condition that is OUT OF your control.
to be very overweight or obese.


any woman reading this: I may be hard at firsl but the healthy diet and fitness become routine after a while, so BE HEALTHY.

 

[mosh69]

Well well well...looks like I pissed off the wrong "Person" in this section recently.
Was wondering why my reputation turned red???
Now I see.
I was honest in a post asking men's opinions about overweight women.
Someone didn't "Approve" of my post/opinion and, just like the petty bitches on the street do they blast my reputation.
"As if I get laid???" was the comment left on my Profile....Lol
Since "U" brought it up and I don't know exactly who "You" are...3 different chicks last week and approximately 16 in the past year.
I do apologize for offending anyone btw.

post a current pic of yourself...lets see what sort of stake you take in your appearance.

I still support my thick hipped sisters

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. My wife is 5-0, 105 lbs with abs after two kids (tremendous genetics, that bitch) and just I think she's sexy I also find women with curves (Kim Kardashian, Toccara Jones, Lisa Sparxx) very attractive.

Listing Lisa Sparxx probably says a little too much about me, considering I'm fond of her work

And I like what Juiced said: some women can work their ass off in the gym and never be a fitness model, but they are healthy and sexy nonetheless.
