Fat people can be HOT!

[Biorgium]

I think they definitely can be - both women and men.

I love a sumptious, plush, curvy BBW. As long as her skin is quite smooth & firm, there's nothing at all unappealing about some rolls on a woman. Round bellies, thick thighs, wide hips and plump asses...yum!

Same with men - big strong furry bears are quite attractive to some people. Man-boobs can be sexy (and sensitive) if you look at them with an open mind & heart.

Fat people are not necessarily physically unfit either. Some of them exercise quite regularly - still keeping the fat but building a strong cardio system and good flexibility.

In bed, give me a healthy, fleshy partner with an oral fixation who gets as happy as I do when the sex gets sloppy. I'll take that over somebody who's obsessed with their self-image and slim-ness any day.

(If you're one of those people who just can't stop yourself from making "jokes" about fat people or who just hate them automatically...let's see, how do I say this diplomatically...kindly piss off and go elsewhere)

I've never found a guy smaller than a 36inch jean size attractive for some reason, but i don't like fat either....I'm a picky bitch.

 

[EJFan]

i don't judge... i've been fat and thin and everything in between... the bottom line is the different people are attracted to different things and the physical appearance of an individual is only a small part of what makes a relationship successful.

if you want to consider things from a purely biological/antrhopological point, however, people want a mate with whom that can have strong, quality offspring. a lot of senses and impressions go into picking a mate for immediate satisfaction in both physical and emotional states... when it comes to the instincts alone, it's symmetry and health (in sense and appearance) that drives us as beings.

the most important thing is that you're true to yourself and maintain respect for yourself and your SO.

btw, DD... i'm a picky bastard... it's a shame you're not in the states... we could go to public places and make funny observations about people together. lol.

I've been thin. I've been well toned and lumpy in all the places that women seem to like. Currently I would describe myself as a quasi-plasmoidic-butterball-like-mass with appendages. There is nothing attractive about me at this point.

I've seen one or two "BBWs" that I would consider easy on the eyes. But, otherwise ... any man who finds them sexually appealing is clearly more man than I.

 

[Singer20]

So, the Peter Griffin "No Fat Chicks" t-shirt picture would be inappropriate?

 

[revolution724]

Voluptuous women have been considered the most sexually appealing for centuries before our current starvation aesthetic set in. Go to a museum sometime and look at the nude paintings for plenty of examples.

Like a lot of people, while I may have some "types" that I like a little more than others, I'm quite capable of feeling attracted to people with a broad range of physical characteristics, including height, skin tone, hair color, body shape, and style of dress/comportment. That broad range of taste is not encouraged by the larger culture, as you point out, and it certainly isn't reflected in what's picked out as "desirable" as shown on TV. More's the pity - everyone gets short-changed by such a narrow view of physical attractiveness as is publically accepted.

I can absolutely guarantee you that some woman, likely several women, would find your current body sexy and might even prefer it to your thinner version. It's just a matter of having some self-confidence, dressing reasonably well, and being open to a full range of possibilities. Lots of women right here will likely back me up on this.

I've seen one or two "BBWs" that I would consider easy on the eyes. But, otherwise ... any man who finds them sexually appealing is clearly more man than I.

I used to think that way too. But listen up: just try being with a BBW and allow the experience to transform you - it might be the best choice you ever made. Nowadays I like women of all shapes & sizes - there are very few bodies I can't find something about to like.

My current girl crush

While I'm pretty hetero (or at least that's my story and I'm sticking to it), my girl crushes tend to be built for comfort.

Fat people can be attractive.. so can slender, toned, athletic, short, tall, etc.

Body type isn't completely a choice, and judging someone based on their body type is stupid.


Attraction, however, isn't a judgement. It's a natural feeling, and sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not.

A lot of people aren't attracted to fat women or men. That's okay. Simply move on, and avoid the cruelty that is so common towards us fatties. I could do without it, and I know others could, too.

That being said, there's another side to the coin. I often hear people who are fans of the plump ladies and gents, being rude to, and bitching about slender folks. What's that about? Bitterness, probably. That's not cool, either.

Live and let live, and enjoy yourself in the process.

I think this sums it up quite nicely.
There are certain body features that I find attractive, but to dismiss someone based purely on the fact that they don't meet those particular likes, better be prepared for a life of loneliness.

MsL is right in much of what she says. Judging people solely on their weight or size is not only stupid and disrespectful, it is a form of prejudice that is self limiting just like racism. To dismiss someone because of their physical attributes is to deny yourself the opportunity of all they have to offer. Not just physical or sexual but also as friends, co-workers, etc. It really does not make any sense.

I guess what I am saying is everyone should be a little more open minded. If we all were, the world would be a much nicer place. Imagine for a moment how boring the world would be if everyone were as perfect as me???

And like MsL said, if you don't like someone, fine let it go. Fat or thin, there is no reason to make fun of someone. We all have our physical faults be they height, weight, hair, breast size, etc, etc.

For those of you that are larger than the societal 'average ', please do not call yourselves fat. That goes for you too MsL! Fat carries a negative conotation and empowers those that criticise you. Accept who you are. There is no need to address your size or weight at all.

For me personally, in case you couldn't tell, I 'prefer' women with a little meat on their bones. For me, there is nothing sexier than a larger confident woman is happy and outgoing. It is the person on the inside that will ultimately attract me and draw me closer as it will anyone else.

 

[revolution724]

About the word "fat," though - I think sometimes people who are larger than average use it to describe themselves not out of poor self-esteem, but to reclaim a word that has long been used to cut them down, sort of like how non-heterosexual people will call themselves "queer" or strong, assertive women will call themselves "bitches." And that sort of reclaiming usage can be very healthy and empowering.

 

[boston_bbw]

I think revolution has a point.. although I would refer to myself as fat I would prefer someone else call me something less derogitory sounding .. women of substance, plus size, chunky, even big.. but "fat" coming from someone else still strikes a nerve for some reason.

i prefer to be called curvy or fuller-figured

What a wonderful way to wake up! Yes 'tis true, beauty comes in every shape and size...it's truly about attitude, what radiates from within...

Indeed. THis is how I feel. I'm bisexual, and often call myself a dyke, or queer. I'm fat. It's not an insult to myself, and it's not an insult from someone else.. it's a pretty apt descriptor. I like myself. If someone else says it with venom, that's their problem.

 

[KarenDee]

hot is hot...no matter the size!

 

[fr34k_n45ty]

I love myself for who I am. Would I like to be thinner... sure why not.... but would that make me happier. NOPE. And I love me lover to be the size that I'm not gonna feel like I'm gonna squish him a lil giggle and a butt to grab, wow that gets me hot

 

[Biorgium]

Amen.

 

[Biorgium]

Gospel truth: anybody who would find your shape unappealing has something seriously wrong with them. More!

For some of us, the term "Fat" is kinda like another kind of "F-Word" or "N-Word" - a word that's OK for a large person to use but perhaps off-limits for slim people to use. Although I'm increasingly inclined to agree with revolution724 and Ms_Lilith that I should free myself from even caring about the word no matter who uses it. Still working on that one.

BTW Boston_BBW - you have the best AV ever! I hope you never change it.

Your pics are great, but don't be shy about your midriff either..

 

[SlickTony]

It seems to be human nature to hold up as a beauty ideal anything that you need wealth to attain, maintain, or retain.

When we were all about hunting and gathering and trying to keep from starving, big women were viewed as attractive. In super-affluent societies, this ideal gets turned on its head and slim is in.

Just like tan wasn't admired on someone who was plowing the north 40 all day or working before the mast; no, lily-white was the ideal; it meant that you could stay out of the sun and not have to work because others were doing for you.

As soon as your working class people were stuck inside factories and offices all day, "fair" and "lily-white" became "pasty" "fishbelly white" and "jailhouse pallor" whereas nut-brown meant you were affluent enough to go to beach resorts or sail on a yacht.

I would like to be thinner than I am, but if something went bad wrong with our social structure and 3/4 of us had to hustle to get enough food to keep body and soul together, I probably wouldn't be slender anymore. No, I'd be scrawny.
