Am I the only woman who likes being curvy?

How do you know multiple people that would tell you that?! So mean and messed up.

Not everyone gets "curvy" when they put on weight. Some people get a big belly and the boobs and butt don't get ANy. So happy do you with your boobs and butt, but good genes but don't begrudge me my exercise classes and salads. I'm just a brick shaped woman waiting to happen.

I'm really skinny and have the ideal hip waist ratio. Curves is in large part a matter of body type and bone structure. Very little to do with fat/weight.

I don't think anyone begrudges you. I do pity people like you though, because it must be painful to live without liking yourself.

This post is simply to brag on yourself and make fun of women that are not like you. Are thin women not womanly now?

"Am I the only woman who likes being curvy?" Really? In case you haven't noticed- curves have always been considered attractive. Hence the reason plastic surgeons make a $$$$ with boob jobs and now butt jobs as well. The reason Victoria's Secret's and Playboy's popularity. The reason there is a restaurant named "Hooters".

Your post is ridiculous.

May I please draw your attention to the "30+ overweight any hope of married" post?

Yeah, me too, OP. Sorry you experienced that.

I mean, how dare they?! Awful. Bad form.

So are we now defining overweight as curvy?

There are thin curvy women, average weight curvy women, a few pounds heavier curvy, and overweight curvy.
But simply overweight does not equate as curvy.

Curvy is more hourglass shape. No one includes the curves of a belly or upper arm into the definition of curvy. So it stands that curvy/hourglass is and has been the most desirable shape. Which renders this post as pointless.

Pre-pregnancy, I liked being curvy. My "skinny" was a size 10 and I looked awesome, but even at a size 14/16 I was proportional. Now I'm a post-baby size 12/14 and don't like it: the curves are in the wrong place, and there are too many of them.

Curvy does not mean fat. Why has that suddenly become what curvy means? Curvy is Beyoncé or someone else with an hourglass shape. It does not mean the woman in that first photo above, who is very overweight.

On another note PP, I feel your pain. Things seemed to have moved around post babies for me too. Much flabbier at the same weight and lumpy.

No, I am either a washboard or a potato unless I am between size 4-8.

I'm smaller than the woman in the first photo, but I think she looks, beautiful, sexy, and confident. Please share your photo, PP.

Not PP, but one can be very overweight and considered by others to be beautiful, sexy, confident. Consider the entire Renaissance Art period.

I would love to be curvy. But the only way that's happening is if I get a boob job. Yes my husband would probably love that!

But if I gain weight it all goes to my butt/thighs, so it's not really a "choice" of thin versus curvy for me. It's thin versus fat and I pick thin.
