What does it mean when someone says a girls soft looking but she's not at all overweight?

Question

Recently a girl I know described to someone else. You know how people will describe somone to you. She said I was very soft looking. I've never heard this used before and I just wonder what she meant. Does anyone know what this means?

Answer 1

My first thought of a "soft" girl is a few extra pounds. You poke the body and it gives a bit, like a pillow or loaf of bread.
Otherwise, it could describe a gentle person who really doesn't look able to play hard. I couldn't picture a soft girl skiing or doing anything outdoorsy.

Answer 2

Soft is a good term for a female which has radiant skin. Not packing a six pack or having a major muscle group highly developed. A younger person with a tenderness and softness as in not callused or rough skinned.

Hope that helps.

Answer 3

Well contoured, no sharp boney edges. Full cheeks, mouth and lips. Plenty of subcutaneous fat, without being overweight. These types of people are hard to wrinkle until they hit late 60's or so. Even then modestly. African-Americans have soft features and are usually hard to wrinkle, making them very attractive in later years.

Answer 4

It's a nice, decent description of someone who looks fragile but without appearing boney or skinny but lacking in muscle definition or tone.

Answer 5

not fat but just that u got a little meat on your bones (pretty much means that u r not anorexic skinny lol which is definitely a good thing) and it may also mean that you aren't really that toned or muscular

Answer 6

It means you don't appear to have a sharpness to your figure..which would happen if you were skin and bones and all you could see were bones..so yeah..It's a good compliment

Answer 7

i would think it's round in all the right places, not cut like a body builder's body...to me soft is good, very good...

Answer 8

No muscle tone.
