Though I will admit this; If the girl has a horrid face, I wouldn't go near. Pretty face? Yeah possibly, even if she was larger than is socially acceptable in this Top Model controlled garbage dump we live in.
How about we see some hating on people who are unhealthily thin for once?
Weight doesn't matter too much to me in a partner, as it's the person you fall in love with not the looks but still that person has to care about their appearance (in a normal way, not by being vain)
I'm currently pregnant but before hand I was a bit overweight and curvy. I don't particularly like my body but have various body complaints that stop me exercising as much as I'd like to.
And I won't lie I love my food too! Nom noms!

it is all hight dependant. Example, my gf is (not telling you her weight), but she could shed a few pounds if she truly wanted to (she by no means has too. She is perfect as is). For her though, if I was her weight at four inches taller, I would be anorexic. ALso, she is confident with herself, so she could be 100 pounds heavier and no one wouldf give3 a ...
I spend most of my life in the theatre and dance world, where almost everyone strives for the "ideal body," more so in dance than in theatre. I'm 6'0" and weigh 157, and I am more attracted to women who are in good shape.
Same here, I can eat ridiculous amounts of food without gaining as much as I should.ShadowsofHope said:
On topic, I don't speak american, but my ideal partners' weight would be around 11 stone. A healthy all-round weight.
I am moderately overweight, but it is a maintained weight. I have a slight gut but it really doesn't bother me because I can still go biking, running, and anything else I want. If someone thinks I need to put down the fork they can think things through. I eat a lot healthier than the skinny people I know. I can work out like mad every day (2-2.5 hours) and get down to what is considered "healthy weight" but if I slack from that at all (say move down to only 1 hour a day) my weight will go back to where I am now. I am much happier sustaining a slight gut as long as I am still eating healthily and working out without pouring more than an hour out of my day specifically working out.
On topic my view shouldn't seem strange if you read the above. I don't mind the weight of the girl as long as she is able to be an active participant if we want to go for a mountain bike ride, or a hike, or any other activity we want to do.

I don't think they're very nice to look at. But I don't mind chubby and curvy. Cba working out what that is in actual weight tho
it would be unfair of me to vote honestly in that poll, so i won't.
personally, i think part of being humanitarian is offering help to those who ask for it. a lot of us fat people don't want help, so they don't ask for it, and nobody should feel obliged to give it to them. fat people have a right to be fat, and we should be respected for that.
i also think it's unfair for people to assume that fat people are unhealthy. i've personally been fat for most of my life (and not pretend fat where you might weigh 5kg more than your mates or something. i'm talking proper fat here), regardless of how healthy or unhealthy i am, how much or how little i exercise, etc. my situation is remarkably similar to that of thin people who have been thin for most of their lives, regardless of their habits. some fat people (not all fat people, but some of them) are fat because they can't be anything else. And it's horrible that many of the thin people in this world can't seem to get that into their heads.
it's also worth noting that some of the other fat people out there have trouble with eating as a whole. either as a result of having always been overweight and wanting to change it, or thinking that they are overweight, trying to change it and becoming overweight as a result, or for some other reason. it's obviously not only fat people who are affected by eating troubles. what interests me is that people who are unbearably thin or of a normal weight, and have eating problems, are given love, support, caring and sympathy by loved ones and strangers alike, while us fat people are just rudely ordered to "put down the fork".

I really don't give a crap about fat people and I don't care about what my lovers weight.
My whole family is pretty much fat and they never had any severe problems so I don't get people who say that they're bad for the health care system. Both my grandparents were in the 250+ lbs and they only went to the hospital when they developed cancers, well in their eighties.
