Why do men like women who are extremely thin?

[Anonymous]

I'm not bashing those who like super thin girls, I'm just curious.
It's understandable that we're attracted to people who look healthy regardless of their gender: slim over obese.
But I know a lot of men both in real life and on the Internet that are into girls who are way too thin to look healthy.
I, myself, used to be super thin and guys loved it for some reason.
Is this a dominance thing?

I find all the photos you posted to be of attractive girls, but I don’t think that I seek out thin girls particularly. I definitely do avoid fat girls though, I mean for romance not for friends or whatever that’s fine.

as for why it is attractive, I think two things come to mind immediately.

1. sex with the person: most women I find attractive I almost immediately fantasize about what would it be like to have sex with them and something about these girls in the photos it seems they would be easy to lift and flip/move around during sex, also with no fat going to be firm and smooth skin no rolls. As for dominance... maybe? I don’t get the impression of fat girls as being harder to dominate, though...(?) I don’t see thin as weak, though maybe weaker physically?

2. Actually interesting I ended that last bit about strength, because my second point is that a thin person shows strength and discipline, because everyone loves food. So a skinny person is showing that they are disciplined enough to maintain a body rather than give into impulsive consumption of food.

Why the fuck do women still phrase questions this way? "Why do men do this, why do men do that, how come men are like this, how come men aren't more like that..."

Men are individuals, unlike women.

"Why do women prefer chicken over beef?" --That's how fucking stupid you make yourself sound.

"Why do ALL MEN prefer skinny women?"

Hey guess what, that's not your fucking problem, you're single for a different reason, toots:

Pierce brosnan's wife was very skinny before she starts popping out his kids. She was big before they got married.

[Bananaman177]

@scott04sa22 I've heard he gets off on feeding her and making her as big as possible, and she is the one who pushes back and wants to lose weight, while he's sneaking melted butter into her coffee and shit. This could be just internet rumor, I have no idea, obviously.

[scott04sa22]

Who knows I don't keep up with Hollywood gossip anymore. Just saying.

[Bananaman177]

@scott04sa22 No, I don't care either, but the idea is funny. Fattening up your wife against her will, lol. Most guys have the opposite problem.

[Puppystarfish23]

I know right someone actually said to me once "omg you'd look so much like Natalia Dyer from stranger things if you lost weight" like thanks but no thanks. Im sure Natalia Dyer is probably a lovely girl but her body looks very concerning to me and i don't think id ever want to be that skinny as it doesn't look healthy. Id also find it strange if met a guy who was purposely dating girls that skinny because he had a thing for it.

Cause they are secret pedophiles. A super skinny woman more resembles a teenager than a grown woman.

[Bananaman177]

Fat women's bodies literally make them resemble giant infants with tiny heads. Is that better? LOL.

@Bananaman177 ROFL. Go suck a dog's dick, it'll remind you of your father's.

"I, myself, used to be super thin and guys loved it for some reason." - did you actually ask them this, if they loved your thinness specifically? lol Because I don't think most guys do like this. There's a difference to is she's really petite, some couldn't gain weight if they tried lol. But I know I don't. I don't want to see muscle definition or bone. While there might be a few guys that love this, I really don't think it's very many in the overall population? But I do think that society want women to believe this is what we want for sure. All the magazines and models that make women think that's what's sexy. Often so you'll buy something.

[Barbaric]

Most of us don't.

In general men over-estimate how muscular women prefer men to be. In general women over-estimate how slim men prefer women to be.

The fashion industry doesn't reflect straight male ideas of beauty - it's run by women and gay men.

We're just attracted to women at a healthy weight.

[Kurαȷ]

Because it's very attractive?
Not sure how else I can explain it.

I just dislike fat, any amount of it.
I think the ideal female physique is that of a fashion model, to me the ideal woman is tall, lithe and willowy.
It's classy, elegant, dramatic, striking, desirable all the good adjectives.

Chunky women just look to me like people who don't want to work on themselves, and that puts me off immediately.

[SkullsandBeauty]

There's many reasons but a few percentage of men like the super thin look. Maybe some don't care and like her for her personality.

Though due to beauty standards pushed on us were conditioned to think big=disgusting.

I find it quiet strange why people enjoy the very underweight look or obese and borderline its scary.

[Gedaria]

I love thin women and ask myself that.
Possibly I find in my self a dis like of being fat.
I'm not that over weight about 20lbs. But I look at other people men and women and get this bias to the thinner frame.
I'm jealous of women anyway for being female and I'm not and it's the same as for being fat...

[humanearth]

So they can beat the shit out them. Now try that shit with a fat girl. They will beat the living shit out of you.

And they fight dirtier and nastier than a nan ever could.

Trust me. I know. I had my ass beat by a few big women.

[DavidFox]

Woah those girls are too thin. But part of the reason why slim is a preference is marketing abc models push beauty as a smaller size. Also obesity isn’t sexy so generally being smaller than overweight is preferred.

[Everglow5]

The guys at my school are never into the super skinny girls. They look nearly skeletal, as if they could get blown away in the breeze.

[Anonymous]

I feel like younger guys prefer thin girls but as they mature they like, as they say, "thicc" women.

What do you guys and girls think? It's just an observation from my friends and guys I've met so far.

[knight2468]

For me I like fit to thick girl but super skinny girls don’t attract me and I am surprised as u many of my friends find skinny girls hot Maybe the reason the media who make the skinny girl the icon of beauty

[Avicenna]

I find them a bit too thin for my taste, but I think it’s rarity since most women are curvy.

[jasco]

I don't, personally i find it a bit odd how someone would want to be like that eh its there body

[Anonymous]

Because they aren't fat, and probably will never be fat.

[Anonymous]

the first two, meh, the third one is quite attractive.

[Anonymous]

I would prefer muscular man more than a thin woman.

[dudeinohio]

Not at all into thin girls.

[Anonymous]

Because it’s sexy as fuck.

[Anonymous]
