For the guys....Does weight really matter? (Page 2)

Question

This one is mainly for the guys...But girls state your opinions too :]  So girls are so self conscious about themselves. We always have to look good, because if were not then we will be judged.  But the one thing that guys always come too is our weight.  So the question is...Does weight really matter?

Alaskaman · Answer

well yes and no.

confidence and how a woman feels about herself matters even moreso. A skinny girl with no self confidence is just not attractive.

Magazines and runway models have created a sense of "pretty" that most men do not agree with... but as women are different so are men's tastes. if the woman takes care of herself, and has self pride, the rest will follow.

Mesonfielde · Answer

To me, as long as your face / hair / eyes / additionally voice are attractive, shape does not matter. I've been attracted to girls that were 120 lbs, and girls that were 190 lbs. As I said, it doesn't matter. To me, it doesn't, anyways. xD

But the catch is, your face CAN be messed up if you are overweight. And then you would not be attractive. Just don't look fat. Look overweight, max. :P

undecided_beach_chic · Answer

it's a bit of an old qestion dose weight matter,  I think that if your happy in yourself, and healthy than your the right weight :) if you can run, sprint and swim your not to big :) but vice versa I wouldn't date a fat guy , so why would they date a fat girl,  its pritty double standards to say guys judge.. but were the same

blondebabe1321 · Answer

This is a good question.  I am a young girl, a very fit girl as well. And I gained weight because I signed up for weight training (a work out kinda class) I wanted to get stronger lol . So I gained about 10 pounds in muscle. My thighs have gotten a ton stronger, but also a little bigger. now when I walk my thighs jiggle a little :) lol, but the boys make fun! I don't know what it is, I guess it depends on the person. because the boys I know are allll d***s. but to me, weight doesn't matter as long as they are healthy. :)

anitababe · Answer

well in my opinion its not really weight that matter's its more do you look good at the weight you are at? if your 5''5' and 200lbs yea weight matters but! if your 5''5' and 115-130lbs yur good. and to skinny is nasty... so weight matters if your over or under weight!

severino · Answer

It only matters if you make it a proble meaning you ither point it out to him a lot , cause if he didn't like your body now he wouldn't be with you...also it how you "work it" meaning your confedence.If you have that then men are way more drawn to you. Besides women judge way harsher then men.

bbos851 · Answer

for some guys weight does matter althought they will say it dosnt I for one am not that type of guy I for one look on how the person is are we compatible do we like the same things I don't care about the weith I care about the person but when someone in a rlationship states that have you put on weoght it could be a sign that there worried about you wellbeing and just want to know if you are doing OK for instance;

a girl having a stressful month at work eats ice cream every time after work so she gains a few pounds the boyfreind asked if they put ona a few lbs with a worried voice but most girls will imidiatly tatke it the worng way most girls don't sit their and think about what they said and the relation ship dosnt last

if girls understood guys a bit more then relationships would have a better shot and would last longer and be happier

IamThisGuy · Answer

Weight only matters to those men who look for a certain body type. So guys like girls thicker, some like them skin bony. I personally like girls that are skinnier (not bony) like an athletic build to some girls that are a little curvy. I draw the line at girls who look anorexic or who are overwhelmingly overweight. I basically look for a girl who is healthy. Its good genetics. Its a subconscious thing.

Cedee · Answer

I'd like to believe its not. But that would be wishful thinking :/ I agree that we feel we will be judged if we don't look our best. Or THE best now- a -days. This ultimately puts pressure on us girls thinking that we will only become attractive to the opposite sex if we look good ( doesn't mean you have to be size 0 to look good) I genuinely think BEAUTY LIES SKIN DEEP; total cliche :/ but its true. Only thing is that because we are constantly being rated on looks that doesn't count initially, which is ashame :( but that's reality!. So I do think weight matters to mean initially but I believe that once you get to know someone that isn't necessarily the case.  Remember inside every fat person there is a slim better looking person bursting to get out =]

Phoenix52 · Answer

Yeah it does.

I'm trim as heck because I have to diet. I'm diabetic. I take my health seriously and don't eat all kinds of crap.

I want a girl that does the same - pays attention to what she eats. I'm not inclined to get with a chick who's plumped out.

Women do the same - they DO judge by appearances. I don't see beautiful chicks arm in arm with fat guys. Why should they anyway? Don't go for less when you want more.

Carmondy · Answer

Ok, so I know you asked about a girl's weight, but I'm going to answer differently. Personally, I find Seth Rogen drop dead sexy and he is overweight. But at the same time, David Beckham could be my future baby daddy and he is crazy in-shape. I'm not attracted to just one body type, and it's something beyond weight that attracts me to a person. Honestly, I don't notice it when I'm looking, so I'm sure that a lot of guys out there are the same way

quietgirl69 · Answer

The digits aren't what matter because it all depends on height and your build to create that number. If you know how to dress yourself and can rock whatever body you have with confidence you are good to go ! All girls can be beautiful no matter what shape or size it is all how you put yourself on display.

stalinhornsby · Answer

I feel good about myself but if I can't dress the part then I feel isolated to a very small group of friends. The nice part is that everyone in my group is either a bit heavy or thin. So there is no back biting going on if one of the heavy gals wears a bikini top.

FrustratedWhiteKnigh · Answer

I think I'm in the majority and say yes, size does matter.  There are a number of guys who don't care about such things though.  if you're huge overweight or WAY too skinny, there are guys who will like you.  If you want to appeal to the masses then yes, try to keep yourself a healthy size.

LiSAdoll85 · Answer

no hun I don't think so.  I'm self consious about my weight too-not being overly fat, but being overly skinny. I'm tall and thin & I hate it!  girls just think they have to look skinny because its the stereotype!  but skinny girls like me wished they weighed more. so truth is, a lot of girls are insecure with their weight, even skinny girls. when really we should just all accept ourselves for who we are and stop worrying about our weight

cardioman6519 · Answer

weight really matters mostly if you are young like your age, but as you get older, weight is less of a concern to guys.  There are plenty of guys out there that do not care as much about weight.  You just have to find them.

lildol · Answer

Depends on the guy - myself, at 5'3" and 120lbs, have some men telling me I need to gain weight, others tell me I'm perfect  and still others that say I could use a 'little toning'. It's personal preference.

Anonymous · Answer

The bible says you are young find the man of your dreams. Weight dosn,t matter if a guy meets the girl you are and you are her. Because you are the one he dosnt notice. But if it matters to you and no matter if h is the right man he has to deal with it woe to that man..

xhamer · Answer

It matters when you first meet a girl, but as you get to know them, personality trumps all. Afterall, appearance does not last forever.

Anonymous · Answer

From a guy's POV who's started working out and losing weight, yeah it does. I expect my girls to look healthy and have a nice sexy flat tummy? why? cause soon I'm gonna have that too, it's not fair I'm working my butt off to look sexy while the girl does nothing.

in my opinion people with the same "fitness" level should date those of their level.

if someone is 210 pounds, overweight, and does nothing about it. he shouldn't expect to get with a slim sexy girl, its not fair to the girl or him.

Anonymous · Answer

Don't listen to what others tell you about what you should and shouldn't be because everyone has a different idea of perfection. Guys who judge girls based solely on appearance don't deserve to be with anyone anyways. A guy could meet a girl and fall in love with her, something as simple as appearance makes him run from her even though she was the best thing that ever happened to him, it is his loss not yours. I am stick thin with huge breasts and I still haven't found my mr. right, only time can fix that.

Anonymous · Answer

It's really a matter of preference, there are some people out there who love the BBW's and others who love the stick figures. In the end I think weight can matter but it's more about the narrative your weight says about if you take care of yourself. I think men and women are attracted to people who look like they take care of themselves. Most will pick the guy who smells good and is wearing clean clothes than the guy who smells like he febreezed himself and has ketchup stains all over his shirt.

skinnyriblover1 · Answer

To me. Yes it does. Can't think of nything worse than cushin' for th pushin'. my partner is toned, with a hot athletic body with a nice firm defined stomach so she looks awesome in a bikini.

And to the guy who said 'physical relationships don't last'...its been 6 years and my dream girl is my fiancee. Its not being shalow. Its having a preference.

Anonymous · Answer

Nope, weight doesn't matter to most guys, my ex used to say that he liked me being skinny, but that he wouldn't mind if I put on some more.

To girls, well I can only speak for myself, I don't like it if girls are out of shape, because I think that they should know better...

Anonymous · Answer

I'm very active! I weigh 130 I'm 5'6 small and curvy. My measurments are 34-23-33. I'm very curvy with a super tiny waist but I love running and lifting weights. I'm pretty toned and I love my flat tummy. I like my body and I will find a guy that is fit like me too. Guys usually like girls that have the same physical stature as themselves! I love not being stick thin. Big boobs and butts are very attractive! Don't be self concious! Shake watcha mama gave ya!

Anonymous · Answer

me personally as long as your weight is nicely proportioned I would be attracted to you if you're cute but honestly I think this is mainly a female issue, more woman car about super slim dudes with six packs at their early ages say 18 to 20 summin but around that age guys only care about gettin sum

Anonymous · Answer

Weight does matter to me but it's because I'm a competitive swimmer.

I have to eat healthy & have a good body weight.

I cannot be underweight or overweight.. I have to be the average weight for my height.

I'm 5 feet 5 inches and I'm 109 pounds. I'm considered as skinny/underweight & I hate it alot.

I try to gain a few more pounds but sometimes it doesn't work for me.

Anonymous · Answer

i don't think it does.

like I am 168cm tall and I weigh around 70kg.

most people think I weigh around the 50's so I get a lot of compliments from that.

it depends on what your weight is made up of. if you're not fat but you weigh 70+ kg,

it's all muscle and be proud of it. maybe it's not muscle. maybe it's just bone mass.

depends on the guys. some guys may think having a little muscle here and there is

good. but if your like short and you ARE fat, then it starts to matter.

rickyvee · Answer

most guys are turned on more by toned girls. some guys like heavier girls. the important thing is to make sure the guy you're with is turned on by YOU!

Anonymous · Answer

I am expert of judo, gynastium, whole other mix martial art skills. I have always been muscular so it is not an issue for me but I have seen guys say I wish I was like you or I want to be like you or I am fat. or others say friends " you fat a*** and get upset.

The point is not for every guy but yes for a lot guys because it depends the health, weight, enviroment, country, race, nationality, ethnicity, and income.

Thanks

lowe187 · Answer

i don't think weight matters, like its not like we see the number on the scale and get grossed out. its the apperance because some girls have thick thighs (sexy) so there weight is higher or you know a big ass and what not , that stuff adds weight

so I guess it all depends where the weight is

hope I helped

pezzonovante88 · Answer

Yes, weight/size matters.  However, you may not necessarily be judged, you just won't really be noticed or considered by many/most guys, particularly physically attractive ones.  Its been my observation that overweight girls end up with other overweight guys.

Reginelli · Answer

It doenst really matter to me. I look at the girl on the inside before I see her weight but at the same time I have to be attracted to her. As long as the girl keep herself up and has the confidence about her the weight doesn't matter.

dtaylor31906 · Answer

its no so much weight as in body shape if you way 140 pounds but your don't look fat than its ok but if your 5' 2 and 160  and look fat than there it starts to matter

i got an athletic body and my girlfriend is kinda chubby but I'm so in love with her that everything seems perfect about her and I don't give a sh*t about her weight she is still my baby no matter what.

leaderbynature · Answer

i like fat girls cause they usually have great playful jugs. I wouldn't ever marry one tho as I'm not that shallow to only look for jugs in a girl. But, as for sex, I love a big plump fat one to pound on

KERMlT · Answer

Not really but curvy to chubby women are dead sexy. I would rather be the skinny one in the relationship.

anonymousdude2 · Answer

Yes.  However certain guys have different criteria for weight.  Some guys LOVE chics that are bigger, hey more power to them.  Less competition haa!

4stix4 · Answer

for 70 to 80% of guys prefer "a little meat on the bones" so a healthy weight 90 to 120 is sexy

this doesent mean "fat" is sexy

infact fat can be ugly to most men (including me)

and it is true that the boobs and butt do matter though (bigger is better here)

GreasyDevil · Answer

yes.im a very physical guy, both outdoors and in the bedroom. I have to have a girl I can toss around and someone who can keep up with my stamina... I weigh 135lbs and am 5'6". as long as she doesn't weigh more than me then there is no problem...

blackirish · Answer

The number doesn't matter to men, it's just what you look like. That simple. If you look good to us you look good, we don't think in terms of weight. We think in terms of "is she arousing"?

King_bling27 · Answer

No, Weight does not matter AT ALL.  It is what is on the inside that counts.  I am sorry, but I think it is very shallow if a guy is saying that he would prefer a skinny girl to a fat girl, because of her weight, that is ridiculous.  But anyway, NO it does not matter.  To some probably, I don't know why.  Get to know the person first!

Anonymous · Answer

Fastest way for a guy to avoid you is become obese or really overweight. Nothing clicks in many guys that makes the attraction. Its just not there. That goes for both guys and girls though. Weight is the biggest turn off of them all. That's just how it is mostly in society.

Kushmall · Answer

yeah can't be disgustingly fat and can't be model skinny some fat is good makes there breast and butt bigger ;)

jackflynn7 · Answer

Yes.  Anorexic thin looks unhealthy and neurotic.  Fat looks unclean, ill disciplined and self indulgent.  Sturdy, fit and well groomed is what we like.  That can be anywhere from athletic-slip to durably fleshy.

nnitgy · Answer

Depends on the guy.  Every guy is different. Some just want the hottest girl on earth or what they feel is how.  Each guy's preference is different.  Some will overlook weight if the personality makes up for it.

SlowSuccess · Answer

Extremes in either direction suck, but I find myself more empathetic with anorexics than obese people.  I guess because being the former is harder work than the latter? blah, nvm this post

Lockjawx27 · Answer

Fat sloppy chubby girls are not attractive, plain and simple. It does nothing for us. If we can see a gut hanging out of your shirt, it's a turn off.

DarkShadow1980 · Answer

Yes. For most it does. Just how a girl wants a skinny guy, a guy wants a skinny girl. If you have just a tad bit extra, that's fine, but if it's "rolls", it's just disgusting.

Koncieved · Answer

I'm more concerned about their BMI, body fat percentage, any medical conditions they may or may not have. If I approve all of these factors on a woman I would consider dating her.

sjli1804 · Answer

I don't give a sh*t about weight as long as they're not fat and they look good, why would weight even matter? If  I just found out that Megan Fox weighed a ton I'm pretty sure I'd still bang her

Marinerfan51 · Answer

No weight does not really matter. Don't go for the Shallow Hal kind of guy. Find someone who is going to like you for who you are. Like they always say there is a perfect person out there for everyone.

martyfellow · Answer

Yes, it matters a lot.   So many women are so big nowadays, espcially the younger girls.   Personally I hardly ever see any girls who aren't Asian looking good on the street..

klyde1120 · Answer

If your asking this because you want to look good for a guy you like and he is pretty fit then se how he reacts towards you.

it depends on the guy you're talking to. See if you have a boy friend and he wants to take you to the gym then he wants you to lose weight, but on the other hand if he tells you how pretty you are or how good you look every day or very often, then weight doesn't matter.

JoJo622 · Answer

how can a girl be 'voluptuous' while not having a bit of fat? girls were meant to be softer than guys. we need more fat to have our periods and hips to hold and give birth to children. for most guys I know, as long as you're not OBESE you're good :)) it should be more about personality (those are the good guys ;)) ) some like them stick thin and some like them curvy, athletic, soft, hard, ect.

frankiefrank · Answer

I actually like a litte extra on women, to the point that they are soft and curvy, but still well kept. So just focus on how you look, not your actual weight. If you look cute, that's that.

avksxx · Answer

Yes, it does, but not to the extent that women think it does. We don't need perfect bodies. Men want girls who are healthy, not women who are obese, and not women who are anorexic.

Frosty_sizzle · Answer

Im just gonna say how it is. I don't mind a thin girl, But I still want some cooshin for the pushin.And honestly it doesn't matter how you are if you got game.
