Guys, would you rather be a with a girl who was underweight or overweight?

Would you rather be with (or more likely to be attracted to) someone overweight or underweight. I'll define underweight as bmi 16 and overweight as bmi 28, because those are similar deviations from the what is considered a healthy weight. so I'll give you some examples for various heights 5'0'' underweight: 82 pounds overweight: 144 pounds 5'5'' underweight: 96 pounds overweight: 168 pounds 5'10'' underweight: 112 pounds overweight: 195 pounds Now, I'm not asking if either of these would be your ideal. Just, if you were forced to choose between the two options, which would you pick?

Just as a side note,

in 1960 in the US, the average bmi was 25

in 2002 in the US, the average was 28 (what I used for the overweight category)

Those were averages for all adults, though, but I imagine the average bmi has gone up again since 2002

  • I'd have to say underweight. But if she really looked anorexic-level skinny, no way. If you can see her ribs at all normally, that's probably not a very good thing. I wouldn't go near this chick link and would rather date an overweight person than her.

    So, underweight as long as you could just call her "skinny"... any more than just being able to call her "skinny" and there's a problem.

  • I'd say overweight, if it's not too much. Some people said that the overweight amounts were too much, but I think the underweight is bad. There are little to no curves, and I don't want to date someone who's like a skeleton.

  • I'm one or 2 pounds underweight, but its just how my metabolism works. I think most guys would choose underweight. Even if she had an eating problem, obviously so does the overweight girl. Plus its a lot easier to gain weight, than it is to lose it.

    • Oui, c'est vrai...(:(:(:

  • This is a tough question without actually seeing the person. So I will be shallow and say underweight.

  • If the overweight wasn't so high...I don't mind a little extra weight, we can burn that off easily.

  • Unless it's the result of an eating disorder, underweight.

  • Probably under to make it easier, and more enjoyable to pick her up, and twirl around while hugging, or just holding her in the air. And be able to carry her without being uncomfortable.

  • No preference.

  • Underweight..(:(:(:

  • I know I'm a rarity...i'd choose overweight. I don't mind more stuff to play with. :)

  • Google tells me Adriana Lima is 5'10" and 112 lbs so definitely that.

    • 5'10" and 112 lbs being underweight is not a rule it's just a guide. Adriana Lima is not underweight. She is a healthy weight for her build.

  • underweight... cause overweight is less likely to be fixed.

  • Underweight definitely. I prefer skinny girls anyway so underweight would look a lot better to me than overweight.

  • With those stats underweight because those overweight stats are really overweight. Like too much. Plus its much easier to gain weight than lose it.

    • they are the same amount underweight and overweight according to bmi

    • i understand but if it were less extremes I'd probably pick overweight

    • And to the update.. Yea the average is that but we are literally THE fattest country in the world. so yea lol

    • Show All
  • Underweight.

  • id pick the underweight one

  • Underweight for sure. For one thing, the weight's you gave are pretty gross. For another, girls tend to expend over time, so if you start with a smaller one, it's less bad when they chunk out.

  • Wow most say underweight
