Guys...What do you think about "fat girls"?

I think the curvy girls you're talking about aren't curvy in a guys eyes, they're "fat". Curvy girls have weight, but if it folds over the waist on the jeans, then the line is drawn I think.

It's a mix of things, I think. Certain foods affect the health, so when a person is overweight they're also sometimes suffering from oily skin, acne, bad breath, odd skin tones (unless they're exposed to the sun a lot). They're lethargic, irritable, and generally not very fun to be around. The degree to which people exhibit these symptoms varies, but you'll generally see a difference in the personality of "average" people when compared to those who are "fat".

When they know they're a bit overweight they're not as outgoing, they doubt themselves. Just like a person who has crooked teeth doesn't like to smile very often, they let a physical trait determine how they act in every situation. Fat girls also often have emotional baggage.

When a girl is confident in who she is and her weight problem isn't followed with malnutrition (lots of fatty foods, very few vitamins and minerals) she'll look healthy - even if she does have a few extra pounds- and happy. That can be sexy.

Well, I have answered the same way in several other questions, but I will answer again. My girlfriend was about 50 pounds overweight when I met her, but she has the most beautiful face, smile and personality, so I fell in love with her. Over the last 6 months or so, she has lost about 30 pounds and still would like to lose about 30 more, but I know that I will always love her for her even though she was really overweight when we met. I fell in love with her, not her weight. However, I found her to be beautiful inside and didn't mind the extra pounds!

I believe that it is human nature to be attracted to what is considered average or normal. Since being overweight is not considered normal, people naturally are not as attracted to it.

a curvy chick is ok as long as she's not a russian tank or looks like an aircraft carrier but curvy or as we hispanic guys call it" girls with nice masita" is a good thing because I for one hate a bag of bones or too much cushion for the pushin, but a little masita has never hurt anyone right guys?

1) I have been around big women all of my life, so it's not a problem.

2) I've said it before, and I'll say it a million more times: As long as she's is healthy, who cares?

3) It's complicated to answer. There is a play called "Fat Pig" that discusses this subject. It's actually really good and makes you question yourself and your integrity.

the one I dated smell bad, no matter how much shower she took still smell bad.

as humans we always go towards perfection, I'm not saying petite girls are perfect but as humans we view petite girls as being closer to fit girls than the fat ones. we don't like seeing our partners running towards us and have their flabs bouncing around and reverberating on their whole body. it basically just attracts us more because they look better.thats just it. it is deep in the human mind that petite is better than fat

The guys answers below are pretty good and I only have one other thing to add. In your age group, guys are also affected by all the advertisements out there that define attractiveness; that being the skinnier girl. So that's what they tend to go for.

As you get older and they mature a little, I think that you will find that attitude changing. Personally, I like a girl that falls in your defintion of fat.

In the past, I have dated chubbier girls; one thing I found amusing was that the chubby girls complained about the thin girls, but the chubby girls never did anything about their own weight problem. I mean, they were young, and nothing prevented them from going to the gym and getting on the walking machine for half hour. Instead, they chose to complain about being a bit fat, etc. That kind of got annoying. Also, these ladies were not as confident as the 'thinner' girls and these gave them what I coined, a 'whiny attitude.' Also, as I got older, I realize that these cute chubby ladies, only got chubbier, fatter, and well, I decided that I didn't want to end up with an obese girl; I tend to gain weight easily, but I make the effort to exercise, eat properly, and if I can do it, believe me, a lot of these girls can too.

For me, if I'm really into the girl, it doesn't matter if she's got some fat. My girlfriend is about 20 pounds over the weight that she would like to be at, but she has got a really beautiful face and hair and personality, so I am not turned off by her. In fact, I am very much turned on by her, and I'm hoping that when she drops the weight, she isn't too skinny or bony because that would turn me off. When I met her, she was about 30 pounds heavier than she is now. When she would sit on my lap, it would actually hurt, but I never would tell her that because I wanted her to know that I loved her anyway. I think the reason that guys like girls who are thinner is because it's kind of like how girls like guys who are in good shape physically. Being healthy is attractive, whereas, someone who doesn't take care of their bodies tends to turn people off because they don't care about themselves or have poor self-esteem. People feel better about themselves if they are healthy and in good shape, and confidence is sexy! So, someone with a poor self-image does not attract as many suitors, etc. However, my girlfriend had confidence problems, self-rejection issues and did not feel good about herself until she met me. Once she realized that I loved her for who she was and thought she was beautiful anyway, she began to feel good about herself and began to take care of herself and feel loved and like she wanted to lose the weight, and she has been - steadily! Like I said, I love her no matter what! However, I think that we all need to learn to love ourselves - If we truly love ourselves, it doesn't matter what other people think about us! Does this help so far?

Now why would you ask that :-(

I find it really amusing that girls and guys that never had a weight problem before are answering.This is what wrong with society today they think people aren't worth it or less of a person if they are according to you "fat". People have the same emotions and are capable of being loved no matter what their pant size. I use to be "fat" even though I played almost every sport and exercised daily and ill be honest I didn't have much luck with guys but I lost weight as I got older and became more healthy in my eating. but I didn't do it for ANYONE else but myself.and even now that I have lost a lot of weight and am healthy guys are still not knocking at my door.so I base it solely on personality which Is what it should be based on.And don't believe stereo types that fat people smell bad. not many do.And as for perfection I would take a "fat" guy with a great personality over on air headed jerk with a six pack anyday!
