"Curvy" = skinny waist, wide hips, big butt, big boobs

It's a pretty vague term because almost any woman who doesn't have a gut can be considered "curvy".
She is "curvy":

All 3 can be considered "curvy", yet they all look *drastically* different, and I only find one of them attractive. Can you guess which one?

"Fat" = anyone who has excess belly fat
This one is more simple.

Fat is... well, fat, like big everything because of fat.
Curvy is actually when you have a nice hip/waist ratio, flat stomach, big boobs and big butt.

Curvy mean that a girl has actual curves in her figure. Jennifer Lopez back in the day would be considered "curvy", due to having curves and all, but she was not fat.

Fat means exactly what it means. It means your overweight. Fat girls don't necessarily have curves, plenty don't have a well-proportioned shape, so the weight they haven't doesn't flatter them.

What I don't quite understand in all honesty is that people use the word 'curvy' to describe fat girls. "You're not fat, you're curvy!" --even when it is painfully obvious that is not the case.

hm maybe curvy is how your body is build, and curvy should be healthy all in all, whether "fat" is not healthy. Curvy includes muscles and does not "jiggle" as much as fat. Most of all, you can not choose to be curvy, because curvy is something that comes with your genes. Curvy also often includes some kind of this hourglass shape, whereas fat is just fat everywhere, and not only in particular places.

Every female with standard size breasts is curvy. You are fat when your fat content goes well over 30%. Try to stay below 25% and you have a healthy body.

fat is about weight
curvy is about hip to waist ratio

skinny, average, overweight people can be curvy...

[TheInvisibleMan]

That is not true. Its just that fat fucks nowadays call themselves curvy. Its simple. Curvy means you have big tits and a big ass (and wide hips). Curvy girls can have a completely flat stomach. And even if they have some fat on it, as long as the difference between their waist and hips is big, she is curvy. However if she is just a fat fuck who has no tits or ass and looks like a fat potato - thats a fat fuck

[JohnPackage]

it's related to shape. a fat person is just... fat, no definite shape. curvy it really means it has curves, not just fat or "fat boobs"

sadly nowadays, due to lack of confidence, almost every fat girls calls herself "curvy"

[Kachatterjee]

The figure and the appeal.

Fat can end up same measurement in chest, weist, hip...

Curvy will have a weist size much smaller than the other two.

Also curvy will have more hormones excreted for boys

[Anonymous]

Skinny girls can be curvy...

Fat girls are not "curvy"... they are lumpy.

Fat is where stuff hangs over stuff. Curvy is having shape!

[super147]

Curves can still be relatively tight and smooth. Fat is loose and wobbly.

[Anonymous]

500 pounds is fat and what i saw yesterday at Dunkin Donuts. Very sad.
Curvy is what I am and will never feel bad again for even putting on a pound even at the holidays.

[mikol2591]

Curves at right place, I guess

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 yes, like on here, i also work hard at that no fat.

[mikol2591]

I don't mean to offend anyone but curvy is something which makes me want more of it whereas the fat disgusts me

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 i don't judge anyone here who has a problem but will give them good advice. However, off the grid here when i see fat, i do say something of that fat, in my mind.

[mikol2591]

Exactly, why be fat when you can be curvy...

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 I feel that everyone has a story of just why they became a little "No curvy," and it could be any reason. What is good is if they can help themselves to be Healthy, not just because they would want curvy.

[mikol2591]

People should understand that being fat is a health issue and try to mitigate for their own good.

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 yes, it is a health issue that sometimes has to do with problems they need medicine for.

[mikol2591]

I think fat can be made curvy with some effort. It can also be helpful in their relationships as most men crave curves.

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 yes, I agree, but anyone who needs help in losing the weight, has to wanna do this first for them, before doing it for someone, even if in a relationship.

[mikol2591]

I agree and I was just stating added benefit

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 yes, of course. xx

[mikol2591]

Were you born curvy?

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 lol I was never a fat kid. I have always tried to maintain a nice figure and work out and stay fit. But I have fallen off the weight wagon a few times and got back on board though.

[mikol2591]

Must have made a man lucky

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 lol I feel that if a man really loves you or cares, Unconditional love is where it is at with any weight for mate.

[mikol2591]

Not all have same preferences, I guess. Tbh, a good figure really helps. 😋

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 yes, it's nice to have something going for yourself.

[mikol2591]

Curvy is even better than skinny

[Opinion Owner]

@mikol2591 with muscle though. haha

[mikol2591]

Sure lol

[Yumix]

fat: obese
curvy: has curves but attractive. can be a bit overweight but doesn't necessarily has to be. some use curvy as a nice way to say fat, I don't agree with that though

[Heemus_Christ]

curvy to me is when the body have definition. like a curvy figure. like jlo, or Marian Carey. neither of them are anywhere close to fat but they are both curvy

[GeekGirl_Josy]

fat is like you're a circle!
Curvy means you clearly got curves, making your body shape different than that of a circle

[Anonymous]

Curvy women have flat stomach and just either bigger boobs or a bigger butt or both. And fat doesn't have a flat stomach they are big all over.

[douride2]

Curvy is all about bust & hip to waist ratio. Fat is well fat.

[lifelleo]

Curvy is shape... wide hips with skinny waist
Fat is just belly fat?

[Anonymous]

Curves means wide hips and bust and skinny waist. Fat is not a skinny waist.

[ZihaoWang]

Dude its 'butt' not 'bust'.

[Luvbug96]

fat a lot of rolls can get up curvy kinda got a coca cola body but thick

[Anonymous]

You can be curvy without being fat and you can be fat without being curvy. They aren't mutually exclusive.

[Ayshea]

Curvy is an hourglass, fat is a melon.

[Anime27]

Curvy = Ashley Graham.
Fat = Tess Holliday

[AleDeEurope]

Ashley Graham is also fat.

[Anime27]

According to you. She's probably more fit than you are.

[Neverrrmore]

Fat is unhealthy. Curvy is a build.
