Despite your post there are lots of fit people who are as beautiful on the inside as they are out. Being fit doesn’t disqualify a person from being kind. Those people are just in really high demand.

What does that have to do with my post? I also only want kind, smart, funny men. I just am not attracted to them unless they have millions of dollars. They’re in high demand , but, so am I. Maybe once all the women are thin, all the men will start making more money to attract us.

If you’re in such high demand, why are you still on the market?

It seems women have to be very thin-not just not obese.

In my experience as a woman who was 19-20 BMI in my 20s, 24-25 in my late 30s and then went back to 20 BMI in my 40s - yes, the male attention changes in reverse order from BMI, in pretty drastic geometric progression between 20 and 25. The men "read" 19-20 BMI as pretty and youthful, even if the woman is not young. Ex husband didn't want to sleep with me when I was 24-25, and I was never fat! They need really thin women to get it up in many cases

Did other men treat you differently too, or just your husband?

I didn’t think of other men when I was married . Was too busy with childcare and work. After divorce in my 40s men hit on me on the street . But that’s after I had lost weight and started regularly workout, dye my hair, take care of my skin. Even 10+ younger men approach now: in museums, stores, bars. I’m 47 and have a pretty face+20 BMI

Maybe it was mostly that you had your kids in tow when you were bigger but then by the time you lost weight you were going places without your kids?

I don’t think so . I went to stores back then more

Does it stop causing weight loss at some point or is it just a matter of time before you reach BMI of 20?

I am not going to up my dose for symptom reasons so I think this is just the end of the road.

This meshes with my experience. I was 5’5” 130ish (and I am very average looking) for most of my adult life. Somehow after 2 back to back pregnancies I dropped quickly to 115-120 for several years. Wasn’t entirely sure why- Stress, breastfeeding, some ppd.

That 10-15lb difference seemed to make all the difference- DH was obsessed with me & I got way more attention from men in general. And that was without kids in tow…so that wasn’t a factor. I also was putting LESS effort into my appearance in terms of hair, makeup, clothing etc. - and was exhausted so it wasn’t my winning personality either.

It almost seems crazy to even post- but I swear that was my experience. For that short time span of a few years of being “truly skinny” vs just average. The difference in treatment was very noticeable. After a few years I started gaining weight again and got back 130-135 (still a good weigh IMO- and I was much healthier and feeling bettter) and all the extra attention disappeared. 🤣

Maybe it is just SOME men who prefer super thin women (IDK?) or maybe it is something about me specifically & I look better being very thin. But it was a very real experience for me.

accessible isnt the same as affordable.

The interesting question is whether the formerly fat people will still have a fat person’s attitude and personality after they get thin. Formerly fat people often have lingering resentment about how they were treated and have fear of weight regain leading to eating disorders as well as other mental health issues.
