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

Wow, you are a bitch.

You say I'm a bitch like it's a bad thing

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.

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.

New poster here: true but say you're like myself and Sir MixaLot lyric describes you almost exactly "36-24-36, only if you're 5'3" -- then you have a couple of babies and all of a sudden that 24 becomes a 36 too. That was when it was time to lose the belly fat -- it's also good for heart health as belly fat can cause all kinds of problems -- and return to an hour glass shape with some waist line definition.

So curvy = good! Apple shape = not so good!

Good news, even years later you can get it back.

I do. I'm a size 8, proportional hourglass. I could be thinner, but I enjoy food and work out a ton.

I do agree women tend to say curvy when they're actually fat.

I'm a well proportioned curvy. I'm not jiggly. And I like my curves. My husband loves me and finds me attractive.

I'm the OP. I AM "curvy" as in petite size 2, 34 C cup boobs, flat belly and nice curvy hips and a tight butt.

Curvy has definitely become a euphemism for chunky.

So you're tiny with an hourglass figure, a flat stomach, a nice ass, and big boobs, and you're asking if you're the one who likes this? No, dumbass.

I'm the person you're quoting. Just to be clear, I also meant hourglass shaped. I am 5'9" and at 150 pounds I wore a size 10. And looked awesome I've also been overweight and felt confident and attractive because I was a proportional hourglass, just a bigger one.

Post-baby, I guess now I'm kind of a melting hourglass, or an hourglass from all angles including the side. I have a feeling I'll need to lose a lot more weight to fix it.

Usually, secure people don't post such nonsense.

But rock on with your "hot" body.

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?

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.

so many different "combinations," folks

But fat is fat. We all know that, and "curvy" in some cases is a euphemism for fat. If your BMI is high for your height and weight, you're fat. But a fit person with large hips may be a size 10 and still be skinny.

Stop fooling yourselves, folks. Fit's the way to go if you want to live a healthy life.

NP. It is a bad thing. It's not cute.

because if so, then no, I don't like being "curvy," aka, "fat". I don't wish to look like an 11 yr old Vietnamese boy, either. Just a nipped waist and a muscular, slightly rounded butt is good.

I find that 90% of the time when women use the word "curvy" what they're really describing is "fat."

WTF does this mean? Are Vietnamese boys especially skinny?

I love my curves. I'm a size 12 and pretty toned.
