Girls, if fat girls were considered hot, would you gain weight instead of losing it?

[Anonymous]

In Mauretania girls eat a lot of food to gain weight, because skinny girls are considered ugly. If being fat was attractive in your country, would you try gaining weight instead of losing it?

Yes

No

I think this question is a little difficult to truly get an answer for. We can sit here with all of our western cultured upbringings and try to sit in the shoes of someone growing up where fat is desirable, but I don’t really think we can truly know. I see all these remarks about people thinking their health is important, which, it is, but I mean we don’t know the general education level of the people living in the described area either. I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that if I was long term living in a new place, or born there, I’d probably conform at the very least loosely to the culture surrounding me. You see examples of this all the time. I think it’s unrealistic for people to think they’d somehow remain completely unchanged by this. Even if they didn’t gain weight themselves, I imagine spending enough time somewhere they’d grow to find the trait desirable.

A lot of them are considered hot by some men but that seems like a lame excuse to put on weight.

[witherwing]

Probably not. I'm trying to lose weight, because I don't feel healthy enough right now. I wouldn't risk my health and gain weight so that people would consider me hot.

So you would rather be alone and ugly rather than fat?

[witherwing]

I don't imagine all people agree with beauty ideals, they don't do so now.

[Asker]

Imagine fat girls and skinny girls switched places. You will be as attractive to guys as fat girls are now. Your reaction?

[witherwing]

I'm already overweight, and also in a relationship.

[Asker]

I don't think you are as overweight as those girls on the pictures.

[witherwing]

Does it matter how overweight someone is? I'm not skinny, and people have no problem with that so why would they have a problem if I was skinny and the media was saying overweight women are attractive?

[Asker]

Ok, I got you.

[naijagurl]

I’m more concerned about my overall health than fitting a certain body image so I wouldn’t gain or lose weight just because it’s considered attractive.

[pitzi]

Being fat is unhealthy so nope... I never lost weight intentionally, I was always going for gaining weight since I was underweight for a while...

[Asker]

[pitzi]

I'm not ugly lol

[Asker]

You haven't read the question, right?

[pitzi]

I did but having a supposedly ugly body wouldn't make me ugly...

Also there's some guys with fetishes for fat women today, there would be for sure ones for thin women if it was the opposite way...

[Asker]

So you would be glad if you were only considered attractive by unattractive neckbeards with a fetish?

[pitzi]

They're not neccercially unattractive neckbeards but I'd prefer that over not being able to fit anywhere or carry myself... and being unhelathy

[Salmon4056]

No. People change in beaty trends overall. I'm not going to change to go please somebody. I like as I am

[DidiXDidi]

I'd choose being horribly ugly and healthy over being beautiful and unhealthy any day.

[WaddleGirl]

OMG YES!!! Do I need to move?

[musicbrain5]

I'm not interested in being unhealthy, so no.

[Swaggirl1]

I'd be as big as a house.

[shetroublemakerrocks]

Fuck no

[VixenRach]

No, of course not.
