One is that it implies a higher level of wealth. Food higher in nutrition versus calories is more expensive than more fattening foods that you need to eat more of to get the same level of nutrition, as well as gym memberships and the free time to spend worrying about how big your ass is.
The other is that a lot of men have something in common with a certain bear who's friend to children. And I'm not talking about Smokey. Yes, some men really want to have sex with pre-teen girls but can't because it's illegal (and they seem unable to notice that it's gross or implies a level of immaturity in that the objects of their sexual interest are stuck at the level they were at when they were themselves pre-teens). So they pick the closest thing they can find: girls who can fit into a size 0 and who God forgot to give tits to.
You know its fascinating and weird what you mentioned about skinny=wealthy. I agree, but its weird because 100 years or more ago, it was the opposite. Being fat, ment you had the money to buy food and have slaves and servants to do everything for you. It was the kings and queens that were fat, to the point where I saw on an Egyptian artifact about a visiting queen that was so big, she had leg rolls.
And yes I agree with the notion of liking skinny skinny with pedophilia . I wasn't going to say it, but thank you for brining it up.

I worked for about two years as a "plus size" model, at a size 12. (If you don't know womens sizing, the average fashion model is a 0-2, and plus size in a store starts at around an 18.) Showing up for photo calls and being the only girl around who had curves was very, very hard at times.
First off, thank you for putting "plus size" in quotes and I knew all that already but its good to hear it from someone who is actually a model. *schemes* OOoo... someone on the inside. Maybe you can mention to one of the designers that its hard to find a guy that likes skeletons and ask what the big attraction is? Because if guys want a curvy woman, shouldn't they be making clothes for curvy women?

OT: it's all subjective tastes really, sure i do generally *prefer* my girl to me on the skinnier side, that's just how i am and i don't care if you call me shallow.
now i don't believe this but i could go in the opposite direction OP and say:
"why do people like fatties? there is too much fat to grab onto, i don't know what to do with it all! I can't get my arms around you and we end up spending more time eating than we do anything else!ugh!"
now that's not what i believe but just playing devils advocate for a second, could you honestly back up that POV any better than the skinny POV?
probably not, and if you can you either were very well prepared or you had maybe slightly better reasons that weren't as shallow.
Oh boy, this is going to be a big one. Because I'm realizing more and more that my brain doesn't work like everyone else's. I analyze everything in my life, down to how the molecules are interacting with each other as I pour milk into my coffee and how the differences in temperature stir the milk around and how it starts to spin counter clockwise because of the rotation of the earth and how similar it is to clouds in the sky because air is a liquid just like my coffee.
(p.s. Also, that eating all the time thing is a horrible stereo type, my woman is big and she eats like a bird)
So, why do I like fat. Lots of reasons!
- Its warm and comforting. I get the same pleasure from snuggling with a fat woman as I do snuggling under some warm blankets. I can't think of a more blissful moment when you can wrap yourself in warm, soft, comfortable woman who you love. I can't do that with a stick.
- Breasts are at least 66% fat. So everything that a guy can like about a breast, I can enjoy the same feeling, activities and physics on a fat woman from head to toe, instead of just one area. I won't mention what those are because I don't want to be the one to corrupt someone's brain if they don't understand what I'm talking about. But if do understand, then I haven't done any damage!
- Since being skinny makes you look like a child, a fat woman looks more like a woman. In a partner I want someone who I know can take care of me outside of the bedroom. Someone who looks like an adult, in my mind, is able to take care of themselves more then someone who looks like a child.
- I'm also a big guy myself, 6' tall and 305lbs. I'm scared to hug skinny women let alone do anything else with them. I don't want to be freaking out like a broke something of her's. I know the actual physics of breaking something aren't really that different, I'm just much more comfortable with a women with cushion.
- I also don't see any benefit to a skinny woman. There's nothing that I, personally, want to do with a woman that she need to be skinny for. Example, my woman is 260lbs and I can pick her up just fine. *shrug*
- Also, since I'm in Canada and we get like 8-12 weeks of actual HOT weather here last few years, I don't have to deal with her complaining about the cold. Part of me wants to troll the skinny women who want to be skinny-skinny by telling them that "Yes, that sweater makes you look fat." But I don't, cause that's not nice.
I could go on, but it gets more pornographic from here on out, so I'll stop.
I'm not trying to be shallow or be like, my way is right and you're all idiots. I can see the appeal that someone else could have in an athletic woman who could throw the guy. Or, if you live a very active life style (like mountain climbing, sports, marathon running) and want a partner to share that with, then yeah, a really fat woman will just slow you down.
I hope that answers your curiosity.
