I thought they really preferred young girls so the wives starve themselves to look like one. Most of them are short also to fit the bill. |
I think I just fell in love... My kind of lady. |
What's your point? I'm 5'7 and weigh 130 & generally wear a 4- I don't consider myself thin or fat, just where I should be. Who cares what size is listed on a clothing tag? But if you want to make comparisons .... The average American woman wears a 14 - 16 now... So the pp saying she's thin at a size 4 IS thinner (by far) than most other women. I've been lucky because I live in one of the most $$$ cities in the country and most men I meet are wealthy (anywhere from very comfortable but still has to work to retired set for life in his 40's); in my experience these men want a woman who is fit and looks it- not necessarily skinny, but firm and has a flat stomach. I think it's partly a status symbol- they're successful in life, and want a partner who other men will think is attractive. In fairness- I also want a partner who is fit; I'm not attracted to overweight men. Shallow yes, but I have tried to ignore the physical and I cant. I can't blame men for preferring thin and fit either. |
No one cares |
You probably look fantastic. To many women on here, "fit and thin" = anorexic. Americans are too damn fat, which makes regular, healthy folks look "too thin". Ugh! |
Actually the average American women is now a size 16-18. Sad. Having a partner that is not overweight is a smart choice considering health, reproducing, and longevity. But being thin and in shape shows dedication and self control- both which I would see as positive characteristic. |
No, all men desire not-fat women. There’s a lot of room between fat and thin. |
Also not true. Men have a range of preferred physical types because not all men are the same. |
...Does anyone else suspect that there is a DCUM out there who recently got dumped for a thin woman? There are a few too many threads questioning how any man "could possibly be attracted to a thin woman?!" It is all a big DUH to 90% of the population.
I'm sorry for your loss OP, please don't take it out on anyone other than your sack of shit partner. |
I went for a man of good character based on more than just looks. Waited a long time for the real deal. I am not thin or fat and have a superb marriage. Currently in Bali celebrating our 20th anniversary and grateful for a successfully, handsome and real man! If he marries you for your looks then he will dump you for a younger model. Don’t lower yourself! |
Only poor people are fat because they can't afford healthy food or a gym membership or spa treatments. No wealthy man is going to marry outside his class. |
No, it's too desperate. It's a woman who bet everything on "iron will" would make her skinny and get the man of her dreams, but still no guys are paying her the attention she thinks she deserves. And it pisses her off, so she's going to tell herself it's just a matter of time, and all those less-skinny whores will get their comeuppance. But no matter how loud you yell at them, men won't like you just because you've convinced yourself they should. If you have to try this hard, there is something off about you that skinny won't hide. |
Hello Bezos. |
They probably don't really instinctually but have been socialized over time to, especially those alpha guys you are referring to. The super competitive types who make a lot of money. They're going to want the "best" women and other women have decided that the best = skinniest. |
Someone who listens to other people to tell him what he wants is an "alpha guy?" ![]() |
