Why do guys HATE fat girls, as if they were cancer?

Question

It just shocks me that the intensity to which guys HATE fat girls is unmeasurably high, as if they were the worst cancerous disease, they avoid them like the plague. Can’t even be friends with them!

Why tf is this? Why are guys so shallow?

Please don’t come to me with “Guys are just visual creatures...” No. because if that were true guys also would have different tastes in women, which would include overweight women.

Why is it a universal thing for fat women to be completely deserted?

I think it comes from a stereotype.
Most guys won't hit on or flirt back with a "fat" woman in the same way most girls won't hit on or flirt back with a "fat" guy. The first thing a person looks for in the other person is attraction, then comes personality. I am talking about "first". It doesn't matter after they get to know each other.

Now, there is this stereotype of "fat" girls that they tend to be a little lazy, introverts, etc. etc. (just judge from how they are shown on tv shows and movies). A person who has had bad experiences with "fat" people are going to categories. Its what our brain does! It relates incidents.

Not all guys are going to be like that. The idea is to not be so affected by what you look like.

I feel like it has more to do with the ego of SOME bigger women today. Yes, there are men who find bigger women attractive and nothing wrong with that. We all like different things and thats ok.
But with the body positivity movement and fat acceptance movement, some women who are bigger believe that other people's tastes are irrelevant that they should be attracted to them. And obviously, that is wrong.

Girl, you need to chill with your blanket statements, girls and guys both just don't want to date someone unhealthy l, and if you say skinny girls get attention, every single one of my male friends hate to see girls who starve themselves, nor are they attracted to it. There is a happy medium, and you control how you look, so if you want a man, you have to be what a man wants, can't just expect them to change what they want because some chicks decide to be fat or stay fat

They don't hate them everyone has a preference I'm slim and I'm really attractive and I've overheard strange men looking at me and say that they can't date a skinny. I've seen a lot of pretty fat women but when some men see fat they see out of control.

Okay, you need a sit down. Preferably in a corner where you can calm down. Your blanket statement is only partially true. Men don't always chase heavier girls but many men marry them. There are many reasons to this but that's not what you want. You want me to tell you how all men hate larger women so you can feel vindicated in your vitriol. Well, I'm not going to do that. So many of my friends married women who are plus sized and are incredibly happy and fulfilled. It seems those are the marriages that have lasted the longest, at least that I've seen. So, nope, not gonna feed the hate machine.

We guys could be cunts too and we TaKe the anger we get from rejection and we put it out on fat women. However, a woman Can have a fat guy friend and give false hopes we Do not Do that, So that is good.
I Also realise Many guys are generousnwhen they use the world fat even to some res, ly hot curvy women. Feministi However Can call Obqese women curvy which does more harm than good. So yeah shallow guys will avoid them like plague.
but lets say things the way they are... fat is bad for everyone and it is a bad indicator of health So I hope we all Try to live healthier lives.

ChronicThinker · Answer

I don't know anyone, male or female who legitimately HATE fat people. I know guys who think they're unattractive or gross but at my age none of them go out of their way to be cruel to them.

oppswasthatme · Answer

So there's different levels of fat. I like curvy girls but there are some that border the line of what I find attractive. (Remember to a guy fat means unhealthy, poor habits, maybe even dirty.) You also have to consider the type of guy and the type of girl that are interacting. Is this guy even in the same league as this fat girl? As far as Style, personality, mannerisms, ect? It's just as simple as fat vs not. Unless this girl is obese. So again what kind of fat are we talking? Bottoming if it's fat getting in the way, just eat better and workout then. What's More important to you food or life

genericname85 · Answer

we don´t "hate" them personally. it´s just that being fat is unhealthy, no matter what those political correctness bullshitters say.
we assume that if you can´t even care for your own health, then how could you care for us, leading a good relationship?
plus it´s not visually appealing... the choice of partner after all often comes down to very primal urges. like desire to procreate with another person with the fittest possible matching genes. a person being fat doesn´t make them seem healthy and fit for procreation in nowadays society. cause do you want a child that will turn out to be fat and deal with all the problems of being it?

i hope you don´t feel insulted or something. i´m not saying that fat girls don´t deserve to be loved or whatever but i hope i explained why it´s harder for them.

Engel30 · Answer

It not about hating them just cuz they're fat.
It's simply about not feeling attracted towards them.
I wouldn't date one, and that's just a personal preference.
And that doesn't mean I hate them.

And besides nowadays Fat women have developed a terrible Ego, and they feel like, we as men are obligated to like them and date them, and if we don't then we are discriminating them...

sean1234 · Answer

Being friends with them is one thing, being girlfriends/wife is another. I can't be attracted to a girl who is overweight. It just can't happen ever, I dont care how nice you are or how much you say you believe in God. It's unattractive plain and simple. All big girls have to do is eat right and exercise hard and lose the weight, plain and simple.

-So far as I'm concerned you care about me only as much as you care about your own body.

Caaarl · Answer

That's not even true. It's probably just your shity attitude. It's not like guys aren't going out of their way to be your friend like they would for an attractive girl they were interested in but I haven't heard of guys not being friends with a girl just because their weight.

If you're not friends in real life it's doubtful they're going to go out of their way to talk to you.

ryancg · Answer

It depends on your definition of fat. I've got nothing against a girl with a little extra meat on her bones, in fact, I prefer it and I wouldn't call that being fat. My typical definition of fat is obese, which is just unhealthy, but I don't hate them for it.

utterlyconfusedlol · Answer

its all about what they are attracted to same with girls. there are girls who don't like fat guys its not just a gender specific thing.
guys DO have different tastes in women and it DOES include big women. saying they don't is like saying that girls all want the same thing in a guy which is simply not true, stop generalizing.
with this attitude you got towards it is probably not helping

Miristheiss · Answer

I don't hate them and I overweight friends. My mom was overweight when she was alive. You are correct in that I'm not really physically attracted to them romantically.

dragau4 · Answer

Its not? Fat man and woman as the same problem some like fat some like thin a a paper i dont get where you are comming from with the assumption my best friend has a fat girlfriend (just overweight not obese though)

tariqkhan051 · Answer

Guys don't hate fat girls. They just don't like the fact, that a girl which is the beautiful creation of God and who is meant to be beautiful is not taking care of herself properly.

Workout. I try convincing girls to work out and have proper diet. Eating is less is not necessary. Eat smart and work out.

#peace

Everyone's shallow, in various ways. It's an unfortunate part of life. Not every guy dislikes fat girls though.

Volvagia · Answer

a lot of guys are chubby chasers just an fyi but the simple answer is fat people in general aren't as attractive to healthy and fit people despite the normalization of obesity

lovelyhoneybones · Answer

I don't think anyone hates fat girls. A lot of males just don't find them attractive. A lot of females don't either.

swahzycorn · Answer

I don't hate body types, but most large people I talk to in general just leave a sad life where they don't want to better themselves. That's what makes me dislike them. The same is for everyone at any body type. They think they should change but they don't, but I'll be friends with everyone.

Anonymous · Answer

No hatred here. Just most likely will not be attracted to them in a romantic way. No problem with that.. I can always use good friends no matter what the size, shape, color, or sex.

taleswapper · Answer

It isn't. too many fat women are happily married for that to be true.

Chaz269 · Answer

It's not universal. Hyperbole won't help your cause at all.

fueledbythc · Answer

Being fat is 100% on you. Its proof of your laziness.
