Look at Sofía Vergara, Salma Hayek, or Christina Hendricks! There have been a TON of articles talking about how much attention these women get BECAUSE they aren't thin or petite, and because a lot of men are tired of Hollywood showing only tiny women in movies and TV.
A great many men prefer a curvy, voluptuous woman, and actively seek them out. Are there guys who only like thin/petite girls? Of course; the fact is that no one size or shape will be what every guy wants, so no girl will attract every guy. But the vast majority of men just want a woman who is attractive, and aren't overly concerned with her shape, meaning they find all shapes and sizes to be attractive. For most men, it's really all about your personality and attitude.
If you want to BE attractive, you need to FEEL attractive, which means you need to accept yourself for what you are. No, that doesn't mean you can't do a bit of toning up if you want to, but your overall body shape isn't going to change, so you need to accept what you are and what you have and learn to use it to your advantage.
When guys see that you are self-conscious or hesitant or whatever about your body, you become less attractive to them, not because of your body, but because of your ATTITUDE *about* your body. When you accept and love yourself for who you are, and are open and comfortable with yourself, guys will immediately see you as being more attractive, because you will have and project a positive body image, and they will respond to that positive attitude.
When it comes to women's bodies, guys are attracted to a MUCH larger range of sizes and shapes than women usually believe. It should be remembered that both the fashion industry, and most of Hollywood casting, is dominated by women (and gay men), who are the ones who tend to set these narrow limits on beauty. It's not men doing that. Look at the women who were in movies and TV in the 30s-50s, when men made all the decisions: they probably averaged 20-30 pounds heavier than those of today. The fashion world is largely responsible for that change.
We are in the same baot. I have learned to love it...you have a pearshaped figure
which is really nice, womanly and curvy everthing that's expected of an woman...you have no idea how happy you should be...you really do not want to look like Angelina Jolie, right now, that woman looks hungry, it's really sad that woman feel under pressure to be a size zero...Let me tell you something everybody, I am a size 6 and a 8 down (uk sizing) I am 5 ft 4 and I weigh 63kg, people will say whoa you are heavy but if you look at me I am slim but I just have a bigger bum than average...look what I am trying to say is, only to embrace your body...oh and by the way a pencil skirt/dress will suit better than other figure types ;)
QA - this is the answer which must burn into your memory!
Yes, that's true...
i see the little petite girls and think their style is cute and they can dress up in really cute styles that I could never pull off, but in the end I have the curves of a women and they have a 14 year old boys body. :)
Hate when people say dumb sh*t like this
i take it you fall under the 14 year old boy category?
If 14 year old boys fall under the pear shaped category then I guess
Yes of course, it's all preference. Some guys prefer petite girls, other tall ones, others big ones, I don't know.

They can look good. Yes yes yes.
thick is perfect and wide hips are awesome :) be proud you sound beautiful.
That is usually what I'm most attracted to, what's not to like. Wide hips are made for grabbing, girls who are thick are extremely cute especially when they are relatively short too
Girl, from where you got this insane idea?
Wide hips equal hotness!
(Some) guys and (mostly) girls think that petite girls are "hot" because that's what fashion industry want to tell us - for those bastards it's much easier to make clothes which fit to a plank than to a beautiful feminine figure!
Yes.. fancy clothes, cute haircut, nice make-up make girls look good.. even petite ones, but I swear - any normal guy WILL be turned off seeing such girl naked, seeing a body of a teenage boy instead of a woman.
I don't think wide hips are unattractive. I'm thin and I have em.
You should be fine.
I don't know why girls worry about their wide hips. I mean me personally I love them.
Most guys go for girls who have wide because it shows more of their feminine side.
guys like it its a very feminine feature
Here is where you will see a difference between what girls think looks good and what guys think looks good. Guys dig it, girls think it looks hideous.
i do think it looks hideous lol , but I think that guys find it OK but would rather have a cute petite girl instead
Wide hips along with a large bust are considered very womanly features. Typically speaking, men are most turned on by the body parts of a woman that "grow" or change shape during puberty, thus visually differentiating their body from another man's. Enlarged breasts, Widened hips, the formation of a "bubble butt" etc.
