Search Results: who do i choose

I posted this question

Do you have physical criteria/preferences for a dating partner and did you deliberately choose whatever your preferences are?

I used the above photo as an example of a woman who is overweight but not grossly overweight or "morbidly obese." I had one female user respond with a claim that the woman in this photo is not overweight at all but is in the normal range! I don't subscribe to the body positivity movement which requires that fat people be told that they are normal and don't need to lose weight. But maybe I'm out of touch. Maybe this woman represents the new normal.

What do you think?

I had a conversation with another user who said that she has no physical preferences or criteria for anyone that she would date, and I was very, very surprised. How can that possibly be?

My perception is that "virtually" everyone has preferences and criteria by which some potential dating partners would automatically be disqualified. I would be absolutely turned off by a woman whose boobs were noticeably larger than 36D or who had a masculine hairstyle. I have dated some women who were overweight, like this

but the idea of dating a woman like this

is repulsive.

I don't remembering ever pondering upon and deciding what my preferences and deal breakers should be; they just seem to be wired into me. You can tell me that this morbidly obese woman is a wonderful human being and it doesn't make a difference. I can't make myself be attracted to her.

If the answer is so obvious that the question seems to be stupid, I apologize, but I don't want to assume that I'm right. So. . . do you have preferences and criteria by which some potential dating partners would automatically be disqualified? If so, did you choose those preferences and criteria, or is that an subconscious process with you?

Besides Trumps legal troubles both he and Biden are getting way up there in age. So besides being primaried out (doubtful for either one) it’s also possible that heaven forbid that Father Time could pay one of them a visit and make it impossible for them to be president. I’m not talking about just senility either. Something more serious.

But who would you want if you had the power to choose?
