What do you think of a girl gaining weight to look more attractive vs. Losing it?

Question

Inspired by a gagger that I follow :)

akihon · Accepted Answer

Personally I'm not too bothered by a woman's weight. As long as they are comfortable with it I'm fine.

What bothers me more is those who are obese or hitting the morbid category expecting that I will make sure I hit the gym 4-5 times a week to look in peak shape, that they can sit on their arses while I work mine off, that they get to make those demands and all men have to accept it but are allowed to make none of our own demands, usually nothing too major just if I have to look good for you then that's the least you can do in return.

What I care about more is how the woman treats me herself, am I the one she would choose out of all other options, if she looks at me and compares me to other men am I better than them to her.

I own two houses but does she think that a box under a bridge would be ok as long as we're together.
I own two cars and a boat (actually a reasonable sized yaught), does she think that she'd rather walk as long as I'm holding her hand.
I have enough money that my grandchildren will never have to work, but does she think that two jobs will be ok as long as I'm there for her when she needs me.
Those are the things that I care about more than weight or looks, sadly though there aren't any women like that actually alive.

I agree with you. I think they look better thick. I'm not attracted to thin girls or athletic girls. But others do not share our views and women are not entitled to gain or lose weight because of our preferences. Unless of course they are our partners, in which case our opinion matters to some degree.

I don't get it. When I was overweight no one wanted any thing to do with me because who wanted a "blubber pot"? So I am not fathoming these girls as being more attractive by being overweight. Once they gain that weight it is going to be hell trying to get it off again. Being overweight just puts more work on your heart trying to pump blood through arteries clogged with cholesterol and fatty deposits. That and being that heart attacks are the #1 cause of death in women, even over cancer, it doesn't make sense that any woman would want to be fat to be attractive. Or is it big girls = big boobs that is the attraction?

DanaeAdam5 · Accepted Answer

Depents. Personally I LOVE curvy models. My opinion on the first girl is that (I read an interview that she gave in a magazine 2 years ago) is that she looks WAY better after putting some weight on. Cause before that SHE admitted that she was an anorexic and now finally after all this years she feels comfident in her body.(Honestly she should. She is fucking GORGEOYS now!)
My opinion on the second one is that the pic just isn't flattering.
And the third one looks HOT!♥️♥️♥️

jeemm · Answer

Gaining weight isn't the same thing as becoming overweight, fat or obese. All of the provided pictures are one of those three options. For me I think looking healthy is the essence of attractiveness but everyone has a preference and it's cool if some women gain confidence by becoming overweight but that doesn't take away the fact that they're unhealthy. Gaining weight to reach a healthy medium is totally acceptable though.

GutenWere · Answer

Beauty and attractiveness is purely subjective.
It all comes down to what's your personal preference.
Sure, society virtually always has an "ideal", "standard" or "norm" but that changes just like fashion. Trying to look like the "norm" or chose partner there after without any regards to what YOU actually want, just caring about what others think, is a losing battle no matter what. Because that norm WILL change, and you WILL be left behind or doomed to forever chase a ever-changing ideal in order to please some form of abstract human collective opinion.

So in my completely subjective opinion, I find that girls with a bit of extra weight or curves are more attractive. Almost always, for example models like Ashley Graham are way more beautiful than Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Someone else might disagree. But there is diminishing returns at a certain point. Someone who is risking their life and health or can no longer properly carry out their day to day life because of their weight is not that attractive.

But it's all subjective. For example I find darker skin tones to be incredibly beautiful, more so than light/white so someone like Vivian Eyo-Ephraim takes my breath away.

mrfoox · Answer

I never was a fan of either tbh. People should be the shape they like and feel comfortable with. As long as it's not on a dangerous level, a little much or a little less is all good. Personally I've come to the conclusion that I probably feel most comfortable with some extra weight. I'm around the second girl's level. I've been over 100 kg, which I've managed to go down from. Some people will still argue I need to lose more, and I see their point but... I've realized my weight won't solve all my self image issues. I'll be insecure in a size 1 and 90+, I'd rather keep the shape I'm okay with and work on bettering my inner opinion on myself.
I have days I wish I was skinny, but I try to remember that.. Nothing will change if I do something for someone else. I can lose weight for someone but in the end, once they're gone, will I really still be happy and comfortable? My answer is no

jadspop · Answer

I think it's definitely a grey area and a touchy subject. If we can in general agree that you can be to big then we should also agree you can be to small. If that's the case then giving the "perfect weight" is an opinion and to achieve it you might need to gain weight to meet that goal. Wether or not the new weight is "attractive" is irelevint that's to much of an opinion.

Personally I like a girl that looks healthy. So if she's underweight or skin and bones then I would easily condone gaining weight to look more attractive

Anonymous · Answer

The same as the girls trying to lose weight to look better and then begin too far as to look skinny rather than fit, these girls also went to far and look fat rather than good.
most people just don’t want to stop eating and rather look like pigs and say they are happy like that but as soon as a girl with fitter body walks into the room, the chubby ones feel inferior and can become defensive and rude in attitude..

sadly they are in the majority and therefore men have to either turn hay or accept the fatness because that’s the reality. Girls don’t really want to be fat they are just lazy and don’t want to stop eating so much.

VIVANT · Answer

Looks like they just wanted to eat more. It Durant look as if they carefully planned any kind of weight gain regiment. I think tyst gained weight and after wards says oh I wanted to look better.

pic 1 Before is photoshopped. It’s not tyst she’s thin it’s That her body is paper... of a person we’re actually that thin they’d be really bony. It’s like she’s trying to get more positive feee back for the after pic.

. Normally I don’t comment bc it’s their business but they put it up there for all and they didn't have to.

honestly I think it is silly... They do not Look healthier, they just look like they gained weight. Weight gain can be healthy but you need to do it in An organized way. They just got chubby. Anyone can do that. 🤷‍♀️ It isn’t really deserving of a before and after. in my opinion

and to be clear I’m not saying any are ugly. Just tyst they don’t look healthier. And one seems she gained weight bc she got pregnant.

BeMuse · Answer

If you go really skinny you’ll attract one set of guys. If you go really fat you’ll attract a second set of guys. If you go really muscular you're attract a third set of guys. If you’re in the middle you’ll attract a forth set of guys. Not all sets of guys are evenly distributed within the population. Pick what works for you, and deal with the consequences and options that it creates for you. Just don’t complain when people don’t find you attractive and try to insist you are hot expecting people to accept you and not judge you for your choices...

nelly83 · Answer

People love to hate on women with a bit more weight. But the truth is, if you keep losing weight, you will end up looking less good in clothes. A bit of flesh or muscle on you is the only thing that gives you shape. Most skinny girls have absolutely no shape under their clothes. Lose weight but don't lose too much.

ChgzDaniel · Answer

I personally think they look unhealthy and, it's not for me at all. I prefer skinny people vs overweight people. I will never find fat attractive. I'm sorry if that upsets anyone but healthy is beautiful. HOWEVER, if they are severely underweight like Eugenia Cooney then hell yes put some weight on because it is uncomfortable to look at people who are too skinny.

PielDeMiel · Answer

You don’t choose where you gain weight though. Not everyone looks like these girls even when they do gain weight. I’ve seen big girls with flat asses or flat chests. They may benefit from being overall healthier at that point.

mistixs · Answer

I am trying to gain weight because I am underweight, not to look more attractive but to be healthier. I would still personally prefer to be on the slim side of a healthy weight.

Warmapplecrumble · Answer

The first one definitely looks more attractive.

The second two pictures I think they look attractive either way.

I am similar to the smaller women but there are still times I feel really fat but there are times I think I need to gain weight. No matter what I do I think I'll always feel insecure 🤣 a little.

kymberz · Answer

all of them except girl #1 are gorgeous! and i would be proud to look like any of them because they are so beautiful! but girl #1 is breaking my heart and someone needs to help her and if anyone knows her number i would call her and try to heal but i know that sounds crazy so ya all of those women are beautiful except girl#1 - she is in horrible agony.

Anonymous · Answer

Coming from an obese woman, DON’T, it’s stupid. Unless you’re still in a healthy weight range or have a curvy/proportionate figure, don’t. When you’re fat, men don’t look your way and actually avoid you. I can’t blame them, but it’s the reality. I feel bad for my friends that they want to be around me, it’s like walking around with an odd blob specimen. I know I’m disgusting and subhuman because of my weight. When I get the weight off, I still won’t win because of my loose skin, stretch marks and discoloration. It’s not worth gaining weight for any reason, you won’t be beautiful to society at that point. If you’re a healthy weight or have a proportionate figure, love yourself and know how beautiful you are. 🖤

CHARismatic110 · Answer

Healthy should always be the goal. You can have a thicker build and be healthy. I will say that I've felt a lot better having lost the weight that I did. And not just physically. But some people are the opposite. They feel better after to putting a few pounds on. Health (mental and physical) should def be the focus tho.

Jackelray · Answer

I’m a big fan.
I like a bigger woman.
Obviously everyone is differrent. All body’s are different. And all body’s are beautiful.
But my taste is for the thicker lady for sure.
If you want me to pick a favourite from the top it would be the thicker version of the girl in pink 👌🏻

BlackPhilip99 · Answer

I think that it depends from girl to girl. In my opinion, in this case these two girls look better with weight but it is mostly because majority of their fat went to breasts, butt and hips which guys usually like. However i think that a lot of the girls dont look like this when they gain weight. They may look tottaly different. There are girls that look better when they are fit, they get good physigue and their face become more attractive and there are girls which i think are minority who look good when they are obese.

Perfectclouud · Answer

As long as they are healthy (both physically and mentally) and happy with themselves is really all that matters. If we were all the same how dull would the world be. Plus being beautiful depends on so many things...

Glenn603 · Answer

I think the girls in these pictures look so much better before gaining the weight, with the exception though of the girl in the back and white picture, she looks so much better with more weight on. She looks really pretty.
I’m really attracted to thin girls

Lynx122 · Answer

I'm totally for it :) Especially in places where being skinny is the most preferred there's a lot of girls that would look better with more weight. It doesn't work for every girl though it depends on the body. Girls with broader hips usually look better when they're not super skinny.

msss98 · Answer

I think a fitter look is a healthier look, if u can't run 2km without gassing out u must be unhealthy, and to me unhealthy just isn't attractive, that said everyone is free to do whatever they please

LeoElias · Answer

My sister did that but she didn't want to get fat like those girls. Those girls just look obese. No offense. My sister was 90 lbs 5'4 her entire life. Then she gained I think 20 pounds or so. She weighs 110 now. I'd say she looks normal and now she works out to keep herself fit and healthy looking. So she did gain weight to look more attractive but she still kept herself healthy which I think every girl should do. They won't live forever but cvd isn't going to help them when they have all that unhealthy fat lol especially their poor arteries.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

I think the first girl needed to gain weight but the other two gained too much.

Anonymous · Answer

I never want to gain weight. I love my well trained, slim body and I don't care if men like it or not because the only opinion that matters about my body is my own opinion.

winterfox10 · Answer

Women are naturally chubby, so I would think that there is a balance to find where her body fat softens and plumps everything up, but she still has that lean and athletic look. Like packing on a few pounds is just what is healthy for them, but both of those women probably gained 30+ pounds

Randomawkwardness · Answer

I don't know, it depends on whether you like saggy skin or stretch marks. Usually in changing a weight to be more attractive, people ignore the advice of taking your time.

King_Alt · Answer

A little extra in the right places is fine. If you start to develop a larger gut then it starts to become a turn off. If you just accept that you are starting to/are already overweight and don't even try to change anything, be it diet or exercise, then you are basically admitting to me that you don't care about your health. And if I can't trust you to care about your own health, how can I trust you to care about any children that we may have.

Anonymous · Answer

Whatever is healthy and makes them feel happy, personally I have a severe medical condition ( hashimotos) and is be dead without the pills and I find it ridiculous that someone can’t go to the gym and loose a couple of pounds because I’d die to have that sort of metabolism or hell, any.

Poppykate · Answer

I don’t think anyone is ‘entitled’ to anyone else... 🤔... sure we can have our preferences, but what we get is mostly just luck.

alelectro · Answer

Well on the one hand, I find the extra curves super attractive. On the other hand, I don't want anyone to feel body shamed. So I guess as long as she doing it for herself and with confidence, it's nice.

Seanx30 · Answer

I like both of them to be honest I just depends if you enjoy watching her grow as I found out feeder if you giving her food needed if she gaining weight I won't just celebrate otherwise she will think you wanted to gain weight in first place way I see it she will think I was never her type just let it happen naturally build her confidence still good looking no matter what

Avicenna · Answer

Gaining weight for looks shouldn't happen unless she is anorexic

charlottediane69 · Answer

everyone has their own shape and height that allows a healthy size based on height and bone structure I think it's perfectly ok to gain weight to meet your satisfaction and be comfortable with yourself it's your body you know what makes you feel good about yourself.

AaronKrieger · Answer

It depends on how you're gaining weight and why while still being healthy. In the first image the girl looks better when she's heavier. The other two just look better skinnier because of how much healthier they look.

Brainsbeforebeauty · Answer

Depends on if they're underweight and need to gain, or if they are the weight they should be. If it's just to get more curvy, that's just stupid, cuz not all weight gained goes to your boobs and butt.

hellacray · Answer

Seriously? Women would purposely get fatter to look "attractive?"

Amazing what women would do to get more attention even if it means sacrificing her health.

Well I actually shouldn't be too surprised it's been happening for years.

After all this is pretty much just the reversal of anorexia.

Shubhamgupta · Answer

Actually it is dependend upon your mate only if he is fatty your body and routine already going to fatty, and if your mate is fit then you will automatically get fit and also this is sub conscious mind which is trying to cop up with the soul mate body

BCA6010 · Answer

If she was originally underweight, then it's good for her to get healthy. She could also be building muscle, which is (probably) a good thing. In pretty much any other context though, no.

Exterminatore · Answer

I think I all of those girls needed to put on weight but all put on too much especially the last one.

None the less I think all of them look better with weight than not. I don’t care for stick figure women, but I also don’t like rhinos either. In between is preferred. Thick but healthy.

Can_I_Get_a_Do-Over · Answer

Nope. Not a good move. Not as healthy. The more you stretch your skin, the more it will hang loose as you age.

tiajoka · Answer

I think heavier (not obese but overweight) girls look better naked or in lingerie while skinny ones look best in clothing

Reaperbot666 · Answer

I mean if she is still healthy medically wise. have no real issues with a girl putting on or losing weight. might even improve her confidence a bit more.

blondfrog · Answer

Honestly they can both be hot. I mean hot is hot. I like both lol. But I like the curvy girls way more than the somewhat muscular ones. And too muscular is a huge turn off, just like too fat is a turn off.

DiscomfortZone · Answer

I think if a girl/women is that weak and insecure she could do whatever she wants to make others find her more attractive (as others' opinion of her is obviously the only thing she cares about). It's her body, she can gain/lose weight as much as she wants, she can get diabetes or starve herself to death, her fault and problem.

Anonymous · Answer

1st one's most likely was anorexic and seriously only a brain-damaged idiot thinks that's healthy. The 2nd one gained weight without too much excessive. And the 3rd one's just obese.

Anonymous · Answer

I think it all depends on how much you gain, and where you gain it. I gain most of my my weight in my lower body. I’d never trade it for upper body weight gain. But I think it goes both ways. Guys need to remember that paunches aren’t attractive, at least not me! I’m not overweight at all, and some of the guys that pursued me looked like they were 9 months pregnant! Ewww! 🤢🤮Pursue someone more on your level!

MrTuxedo · Answer

I will support both if it is for a normal weight goal.  If she won't be fat or anorexic after it, I won't hold her back.

Lunatic1 · Answer

In some cases, it is the right call. In others, they still look good but usually looked better before. It is all about body types. For example, the first girl looked better after the weight gain. Whereas the other two looked better before the weight gain. But that is just my opinion.

John_Doesnt · Answer

Those girls are just getting fat. It's an excuse to get fat and then if anybody says something she can respond with "Stop body shaming me".
It's not to be more attractive, it's because they like eating Taco Bell and KFC.

Miristheiss · Answer

Both are fine as long as they are healthy looking... not too thin or too big.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

None of these girls are more attractive with the extra pounds, but that is simply a matter of my preferences.

Anonymous · Answer

Well if it's the case of the first girl, yes please gain weight, that can't be healthy. But the other two looked fine before. They still look fine, but now less fine you know? There's other ways to gain weight, and you can definitely work your body along with it to keep a good figure and not have a belly.

archiz · Answer

Meh for me except the first pic, I find the previous pic much much better.

helbigarthur · Answer

Loose it every health and fitness study will say it's better for you mentally and physically also you will look better and have better skin

The girl in the white underwear looks so much more healthier and attractive with the weight gain she just looked too thin to me in the before picture

Xtownsen · Answer

I like some chubby women especially one in the orange I think she looks sexy especially on her instagram but I will say this no women should be eating more so they could look thick or chunky to impress the opposite sex they should love their body just the way it is and there other ways to get the thick look go to the gym tone up I see a lot of girls doing that today.

mattdzz · Answer

If my girlfriend put on the kind of weight those girls did, she'd have a short period to lose it or she could date someone else. I'm not attracted to fat girls.

-Asca- · Answer

It all depends on how much she weighs and how much she wants to gain. But those examples are definitely too much. But ig you want to become unattractive on purpose I don't care.

Anonymous · Answer

Every man I know who has got a female pregnant and she's wanted to get it aborted the man has been asked or expected to pay, so I think since females preach equality constantly but very rarely practice it i think all females should pay and actually make them pay more in there health insurance premiums so men get it for free.
