Would you date an overweight woman?

Question

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

I have. I dated a woman who was obese. It wasn't a big issue at the time (no pun intended), but I could see it could have been a problem past a few months in. It didn't work out because of a lot of other issues, but I could see it being a dealbreaker.

Overweight? That could be 10 pounds. No problem. I probably wouldn't even notice. Many of the girls I've had a crush on have probably been "average" for their size maybe sporting the "freshman 15" - not an issue.

"Overweight" could be 50-75 pounds. Maybe not quite obese, but probably getting there (depending on height) - okay, maybe that would be something where it's time to look into the possibility of losing weight (depending on her ("our") age). Hopefully she would want to make an effort if she wasn't already trying. Medical change - pregnancy, taking hormones or steroids for something serious - there's a pass if I understand the circumstances, and it's not just from eating nothing but junk food lately.

Of course, "overweight" could be obese. I might be attracted to a woman's "soul" or personality... but I would have an issue with being physically attracted to a woman who was morbidly obese.

I think I would also look at myself - and whatever I'm at, if it's really heavy or obese, I'm not demanding a girlfriend/wife be in perfect health. I'm not going to be making rude comments. If a girlfriend or wife gained that weight, I'd want for her to get healthy for her and for "us." But it wouldn't be because I see myself as superior.

No, it's a brain problem.  Body is just a symptom.

DARK HUMOUR ALERT !!!

Overweight. You mean so that she can't get up from the sofa so you need like 9 reindeers to haul her? Then by all logic, that's not date-able. She needs more a date with the doctor IMMEDIATELY. Because that's life threatening.

Okay sorry for the joke... hopefully I didn't go too far. In reality, I wish that to nobody.

Now if she is plus size, then of course I would give it a try and date her.

And no in all sanity, I wouldn't bring up sarcasm/dark humour on the date.

I never dated any women who were shaped like hot dogs, tires, soda cans or beach balls. At one point I was open to dating women who had a little extra but then women started pushing fat acceptance & claiming that all women are beautiful & that men have no right to preferences. In response, I raised my standards and I'd tell any man not to date a woman who is even 1 ounce into fat territory. Just like she would claim a man can't be 1 inch too short or 1 dollar too poor.

Miristheiss · Answer

It depends.

I like fit girls and some thicker curvier girls have nice hour glass shapes and relatively flat stomachs, they are just fuller figured and maybe a tad soft or chubby.

Full blown fat, fat rolls and a gut, back fat and stuff like that, no.

I dont like women so i will answer "would you date a overweight man" depends. If he is trying to lose weight or just can't help it i guess, But if he is overweight and lazy and won't do anything about it, No

jabariw18 · Answer

Depends. If she's a little chunky and still has a generally feminine figure, sure. But I just don't find the fat/flabby body type attractive. I'd still be friends with her and treat her with respect but it's just an unappealing body type.

HighlyVolatile · Answer

More from muscle or fat and is she interested in leaning down? If she's interested I might take an interest in becoming her personal trainer. We can train together, eat the same things.

Let's be honest. How overweight? I mean is she healthy looking? Because that's basically the dividing line. I knew a woman that was 225lbs. That was hotter than hell. But it was how she carried the weight. Medically speaking she was "obese". But she was still hot. And a great person as well.

Phoenix-gb · Answer

Would depend, overweight covers so much these days that there are some very beautiful women out there who would fall under this classification, so yes I would, but there is an upper limit on that.

ImDusty · Answer

I'm surprised the majority is yes, I would not because I am not attracted to overweight women
