You said it yourself, you are immature. Not only immature, but superficial, ignorant and rude. You are not a "real man", because real men don't think like you. A real man can appreciate a woman for her true worth. We live in a culture that is beset with images of how women are "supposed" to look, and that bases 90% of her value on the way she appears. This is how our culture is. It is a culture that is far from perfect. Not too long ago in our history (maybe you should go back to school or college, and read about these things) women were having to literally FIGHT AGAINST THE MEN for their rights to vote, to own land, to have their own business, let alone to be considered as their own individual and not an extension or posession of the man. You my friend are what I consider part of the problem with women's ability to make advances in our society. No longer are women having to fight for these kinds of rights, but now it is a different battle for women. Unbeknownst to many women, we live in a society that favors youth and beauty, and that punishes those who don't fit into that category in small, subtle ways.
Myself, when I was younger I used to be a fanatic about staying fit and looking attractive. I was undoubtedly one of the hottest in my high school. Now I am older, wiser and realize that my main reason for doing so was for the same reason many other girls are worried about their looks: it is to please the men. All I can say now is, if a guy doesn't like me with my few extra pounds, then he can blow off. If he is that superficial then he doesn't deserve my time of day. It's too bad all women wouldn't think this way. Then maybe we could actually start making more real advances in career and education.
Women are not only having to battle demons from the outside but demons of low self esteem, that drive her to put looks and beauty ahead of real priorities, i.e. furthering herself, education and contributing value to society in a meaningful way. I can only hope and pray that one day women will start to wake up to this and cast off this blanket men have thrown over us, it is a stifling and dreadful place to be. Glad I don't have to deal with it anymore. You guys can take your ideology and put it on my toilet paper roll.
I should also say this: (and maybe one day you will find this out if you ever go to college one day). Concern with appearance is what psychology calls a "normative concern" amongst women in our culture. Meaning, it is a concern that is constantly in the back of women's minds, one that continually troubles them. Called "body image disturbance", in this context is what causes women to have eating disorders, anorexia, bulimia, low self esteem, looks and exercise obsession, concerns, worries and behaviors that in the extreme can literally eclipse the previously mentioned important matters in her life, to the point they no longer hold importance.
While I'm certainly not an advocate for being unhealthy, one needs to take a balanced approach and keep a proper perspective when it comes to appearance. It is not the only important thing in life.

Plus size women can be beautiful too. I know a lot of girls who have rocking bodies but very plain faces( if your avatar is any indication, i am assuming your girl fits into this catagory) There are also heavier women with the most beautiful faces. You need to stop being such a jerk, and grow up. I got news for you. Flab sweat and stretch marks happen to all men at some point in their lives too. Usually when they reach 35. I really hope at that point in your life young women look at you and ask themselves the same question. Picking on the overweight is not okay. It is rude, discriminatory and ignorant. I am sure there are many things about your appearance that make you less than hot or attractive. Your personality sure does.

Please nobody take this the wrong way. In one since of the word i don't like fat women. But on the other hand i don't like skinny women either. Skinny women tend to be flat chested and no butt. While women with a little meat on there bones most of the time have a full chest and butt. Me personally i prefer a woman that has some meat on there bones because they look more healthy. Also have a figure instead of a straight stick.

Everyone's taste is different and you shouldn't knock whatever anyone likes. Fat is also a matter of definition. I am overweight, but don't feel fat. Nor am I uncomfortable with what or who I am. I don't think I look particularly yucky, and have rarely ever had a problem attracting the men that I like. The only person who ever calls me fat is my mother and that is because she is so obsessive about skinnyness. Personally, from a female perspective, I don't understand what men see in stick thin models, there's nothing of them to hold and cuddle, and they are usually only interested in fat and calories or getting fat.

All I can say is,
1) beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. There are many aspects to outer beauty for different people that may not be good for you, but for other (ex. maybe she has gorgeous eyes or soft skin). Besides that, some men like having something to hold on to, or have even a fetish for it!
2) outer beauty is not everything! It's amazing who you are attracted to once you get to know them - then the personality becomes more attractive, and thereby also the person. People that I wouldn't call "my type" suddenly become more attractive physically to me if I get to know them and they are good people.
3) Besides, not all fat people stink!

All MAN are not the same, each has individual taste. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Whether is big, small, black, white, tall, short etc.. it's all in the mind. What about you, why do you go with a petite girl? because you fancy her in that shape but not all men will go for your taste. Don't be prejudiced, respect people's choice.
Good Luck

You are a very very superficial person! I would never give a man like you the time of day. With thinking like that your life lessons are going to be hard and long. I sure hope so because you are not very intelligent when it comes to understanding life! Maybe you'll get it a million life times from now and that's really having high expectations for you!

Have you ever thought that maybe it's what's inside that attracts men and not what's on the outside. Looks only last a short time! When you're 70 and wrinkled do you think that you will still get skinny gorgeous women? I don't think so. You are being superficial! You need to grow up.
