Ok fellas, here is a question for you. I posed a similar one earlier but more than a few were offended and I felt bad about that so I deleted the question. I want to know how others feel about big beautiful women (bbw). I was talking with some people I work with that are not attracted to bbw at all. And I am the exact opposite, I am not attracted to skinny women at all, only bbw. It’s not a “fetish” or anything like that its just my preference. Remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And my ideal beauty is at LEAST 180 lbs. but I don’t know anyone else that feels the same way. I don’t know if they do like bbw but keep it a secret for whatever reason but I am not quiet about it. If some guy says “wow look at her” I usually end up saying “she’s way too skinny” and they always give me a weird look. I don’t like that, far too much negativity against being an overweight woman. Usually larger women are the victims of cruel jokes and are often incorrectly targeted as being unattractiv

which is completely untrue. So if bbw is your fetish don’t bother responding because that is not at all what I am talking about. Whenever I am in a conversation that turns to “whos hot” the usual names are thrown out, Britney Spears, Angelina Jolie, Christina Aguilera, Jessica Simpson, Cameron Diaz, Eva Longoria, Jessica Alba and Heidi Klum. If you showed me their pics and asked me to name them I know I couldn’t do it. I usually say Jordis Unga or Marissa Jaret Winokur. And nobody knows who I am talking about. Just curious if I stood alone or are some others with me on this? I remember when I was a freshman in college (around 1997) I went to a table that had 2 girls there, one was around 190 and very pretty the other was very skinny. And I said something like “do you mind if I have a seat and get to know you” and the skinny girl pipes up and says “thanks but your not my type” what’s that about, I was not making eye contact with her, why did she assume I was talking to her???

Did she think her friend wasn’t cute because she weighed more than her? But I said “this must be embarrassing for you, I was actually talking to your friend”. She gave me a mean look and I think her ego was hurt, but I wasn’t talking to her. She promptly left and her friend invited me to sit. Now I want to point out I would NEVER tell anyone they were big or anything rude like that and if this offends anyone I apologize it is not meant to offend anyone. So lets hear it guys, am I alone in this? And if you have a rude or insulting response do not waste your time posting.

let me add a little more, i know i am long winded. i am not saying attracted because of size. what i mean is you are attracted for other reasons. personality, humor, compasion, intelect. but being a bbw is a bonus.

I think that is the longest question I have ever read. Yes I agree. Full figured gals are way hotter than stick figures. No you are not alone. There are many men who have a mind of their own and don't let the media decide what their idea of beauty should be. But, there is only one gal for me and that is my wife.

I prefer BBW's but I am attracted to skinny women, just not bone thin women like Paris Hilton etc. Give me Queen Latifah or Camryn Manhiem over Paris Hilton or Jessica Simpson. I had a difficult time admitting that I liked women of substance and I did not go without with this one fantastic woman in college b/cshe was not skinny and I did not not to be ridiculed by my friends. What was I thinking! She was a great friend. Thankfully I did not care what my friends thought and I married an amazing BBW. I try and think when I preferred BBW and I would have to say high school but I kept my attraction secret. Nowadays I don't care. BBW rock.

I'm not a guy, and I'm not a bbw, but I have many friends who are bbw's and the most wonderful gals I know. Hopefully you are genuinely attracted to them as people rather than their size or out of pity. It sounds like you are sincere, and I say, that is just great! Yes, they are often the objects of cruel jokes, which is just not right. To paraphrase MLK Jr., wouldn't it be nice to be judged on our character rather than the color (or size) of our skin?

I personally love this question i have to give your props on this i see so many guys go for these girls who don't mean them any good and overlook big beautiful women who would treat them well i have news for all these idiots who think that they can find love based on someones size welcome to the real world in the U.S.A i believe 1 in like 5 people are obese so if you don't stop looking for a partner based on weight you all are gonna be doing some serious sharing.

I understand you like BBW, but don't you think it's a little shallow to have a criteria for weight? I mean if a guy said he liked skinny girls of no more than 120lb, that could be considered a bit offensive. Does it really matter what she weighs, or is that just to give us a rough idea? It's just because if a woman is 180lb but 6ft, she will probably still be quite slim. But a 5ft woman could be 140lb and that would be considered quite big. Maybe using clothes sizes to explain your examples would give a better idea. HTH.

i'm with you!!! i love bbw. there are much more down to earth and"real". all my friends bust me about it, but i don't care. like you, all my buddies go crazy over the skinny women and i look the other way. i think more men like big beautiful women, but are afraid what others will think of them, they are to shallow, and they don't know what they are missing!!
