I’m trying to respond to everyone but there are 50 RESPONSES SO FAR!

No, I wouldn't. Here's the reason I won't date people who's either chubby, round, slightly overweight or fat:

1. I don't find it aesthetically speaking. Regardless of if it's a man or a woman, being slim looks better. I don't like round facial features, fat everywhere etc. You don't have to be fat to turn me off. Kesha in 2019 is slightly round in her cheeks and I'm not attracted to that either although she's a cute girl.

(The picture in your question is misleading. The model isn't overweight, round or chubby. She's just tall and most likely lift, since she has broader shoulders. She's still considered slim).

2. Being overweight is a family characteristics which is the main reason I finds overweight people unattractive other than the aesthetics itself and health. The majority of my family are somewhere between slightly chubby to morbidly obese and they've experienced health problems. I associate slim people with "strangers" or "people outside of my family", while overweight ones could be my cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. I swear, I've no incestuous thoughts.

3. Sitting on the lap, cuddling, having sex etc. isn't practical if my date is too heavy and I'm a very small, short person.

The rest of society doesn’t consider Ashley Graham slim. She wouldn’t be considered a Plus Size Model otherwise. Also, your point on your family being overweight makes literally no sense. Every overweight person isn’t JUST like your family. But it’s your opinion.

[curiousnorway]

I didn't know it was Ashley Graham because of I didn't recognize her. On the pictures on Google she definitively looks overweight, but on the picture you picked she didn't.

[Asker]

I just picked the first one, I was tired lol.

[curiousnorway]

Okay. According to most Norwegian standards she doesn't look overweight on the picture and it's common for girls who are 180+ cm tall to also have broad shoulders and build from my experience.

[Miristheiss]

Ashley Graham?
Is that the woman in the photo?

[Asker]

Yes, I’m pretty sure.

[Asker]

I’m in America not Norway. I didn’t know that.

[curiousnorway]

It makes sense. Although many people in the US is overweight, the US also has a lot of diversity and therefor even more skinny people as well. East-Asians and some other groups tends to be very slim, while other groups tends to be bigger. In Norway the majority is bigger in width because of they're bigger in height as well. Most women are almost 170 cm tall, while men are somewhere between 180 and 190 cm. East-Asians tends to be around 160 if they're girls and 175 if they're boys.

A girl's weight isn't too much of a problem for me. It really depends on how heavy and what their eating habits are. I'm 290, I used to be 385 and I've been working hard to lose my weight and better my habits. It would set me back if they had bad habits and made things harder to stay healthier. I purposely don't buy sweets or unhealthy things so it's not around me to be tempting but if she puts it around me, I'll struggle to fight it and will overall make my progress be lower and will in turn make me become depressed that I'm losing my hard earned progress.

[Asker]

Congrats on that MAJOR weight loss! Also, I agree! I’ve lost 36 pounds so far, and it really helps that my dad is also on a better diet!

[Bananaman177]

Hubba hubba. . .

Fat-bottomed girls make this rockin' world go 'round.

[Juxtapose]

[Bwyze]

Nice... from the mid to the Asian... nice & chubby

[Bananaman177]

[Juxtapose]

lol holy fuck xD

[Bwyze]

Wow!

[Bwyze]

I try to have some... bruh!

[Cruciatusdeatheater]

I prefer chubby/pudgy girls. Not saying I wouldn’t date a thin girl, but I generally prefer pudgy ones. Don’t know what it is, but I dig ‘em. I don’t normally go for looks either. It just happens that the majority of girls with great personalities happen to be pudgier than most haha.

[brennanhuff]

it depends on how much. I don't care if a woman has some or a little extra weight. But if she's obese than I'm most likely not going to be physically attracted to her. It wouldn't stop me from being friends of course, but I wouldn't be attracted to her.

[LukeLugh]

I would date the girl in the photo displayed, I find myself attracted to girls who are genuinely thick (due to working out or predisposition) but may have a bit of visible body fat. The idyllic of course would be for that girl to not have the body fat attached, but that is largely unfeasible and does not alter my sense of attraction much at all. Oddly enough there have been some girls (East Asians) I have been sexually attracted to that have more body fat than "thickness", this may be due to their overall shape appearing more functional and better put together along with a smooth/shiny skin tone.

[hellionthesagereborn]

Depends on how she carries the weight. If she is chubby but still has a figure and is in good health then I have no problem with it (in fact I think they can look quite attractive), but if she is obese, unhealthily fat then no (basically most men are fine with anything that isn't the extremes (morbidly obese or morbidly skinny).

[Animus95]

Yeah, there is nothing wrong with that, but there are some things that I'm looking for. If you are chubby not feeling good about yourself, yet doing nothing about it - then no, I won't. I'm chubby myself and I'm working towards a change instead of blaming the world for not dating as much as my mates do.

[hahahmm]

Never again. I used to defend women who were a little overweight but had nice curves. After hearing feminists tell men that we must accept all women - even 480 pound hippos - as beautiful, I say let women defend themselves now & raised my standards. Cause the thing about chubby women is that it’s a symptom of their lack of discipline and feeling (as far as relationships) that the guy’s needs/opinions don’t matter.

[Asker]

Don’t call people hippos, it’s uneccesary.

[Asker]

I agree, 480 pounds is probably not the look anyone is going for, but they are still more than fat.

[Asker]

Also, being fat isn’t just about lack of discipline. Please, educate yourself on these things before you act like your statements are more than an opinion.

[hahahmm]

Given the destructive “fat acceptance” drive, I disagree. One should be ashamed to stuff their face all day long without exercising. They need motivation to stop making excuses

[Asker]

OML, not every fat person “stuffs their face all day long”

[Asker]

I agree that fat acceptance can only go so far, but people aren’t motivating in the sense of “YEAH GO EAT TEN BIG MACS AND NEVER TAKE A HIKE” they are motivating people who are big to not hide their fat, but not to stay unhealthy.

[Asker]

Well, most people aren’t at least, IM not, and I am fat, and not stuffing my face “all day long” smh. Looking at large quantities of food makes me not wanna eat now, and yes when I was younger I ate a lot at about like 10, and this summer I just kinda stopped!

[Asker]

I’m fat, and doing something about it, so yeah, I’m not ashamed. I’m frustrated that my parents didn’t help me out by making actual breakfast and just buying McDonalds, and that I just loved McDonalds so much that I didn’t protest it enough to make them listen. But I’m not ashamed. Especially because I basically ate like the rest of the kids in my neighbourhood, and I went outside and played tag and in the parks for hours! And sadly I still gained weight.

[hahahmm]

Well, good luck with exercise & whatnot.

I find it suspect that when I was a kid & everybody got exercise there were so few fat people that it was super rare to see one in public & I never went to school with one. But now that there’s an epidemic of fatness there’s a million fancy excuses to put the blame on everything except the fat person’s behavior.

[Asker]

Yeah. Because despite what I said, America loves fast food!

[Reaperbot666]

I have dated plus size ladies in the past.

So long as she is generally health and likes how she looks.

I am fine with dating one in the future also.

[Asker]

I agree! I wouldn’t want to date someone with bad health, it can be a bit rough on both people. And having confidence in yourself boosts your looks!

[HighHithom]

I would like to say I'm an encompassing guy, but I've only dated skinny or slim girls to now. I've heard chubbier girls are more fun, but you loose the 'immediate attractiveness ' appeal (not being mean honest). Guess I'd see if ever in that situation

[SjE78]

I would yes, I focus on personality over looks... as looks fade with time.
but i have dated women over the years who varied in size, shape and looks... the ones who i avoided had bad personalities
