Women, be honest, if your husband was fat

[Anonymous]

Would you still be attracted to him? Would you want to have sex?

Not really. It would depend how fat though.

We'd be eating super healthy and taking daily walks.

I am bisexual. I am much more attracted to a fat woman than a fat man. A fat woman is going to have large breasts, large hips, a large butt- all feminine characteristics. A fat man is pretty much devoid of masculine characteristics.

No I would not be attracted.

No.

DH is overweight but not obese. Probably put on about 25 pounds. Still very attracted to him and we still have regular sex. I do cook more healthy now and help him figure out time to work out. But it really has nothing to do with looks. I love him and want him to be around for a long time!

Well, my husband is fat. He's gone up and down, and has gotten serious about going down for the first time since we've been married.

For me, size isn't what attracts me. It's personality. I was just as attracted to my husband 80 pounds ago as I am now. Behaving like a raging asshole turns me off more than his being fat.

DH gained a lot of weight due to a medical event several years ago that took him from being overweight to obese. His ongoing health issues have largely prevented him from losing that weight. The health issue (or possibly the weight gain, not sure which) has also pretty much eliminated his sex drive and since my sex drive is usually more in response to my partner's, it's led to a decrease in my own drive. I'm not going to lie, it is definitely tough sometimes, but I'm much more worried about his health than our diminished sex life.

He is fat. Gained 60 pounds since we got married 20 years ago. We do have sex but it's to maintain the marriage. I just do it to keep the peace.

That doesn't help if he can eat breakfast, lunch and snacks away from you during the work day.

I would lose interest.

Can the men complain about being fat shamed on this thread?

As long as they turn in their man-card in advance.

I would still be attracted to him. My desire to have sex with someone mainly comes from mental and emotional sources. I appreciate physical positives, but what a person looks like doesn't matter much to me. I don't think that's unusual for women.

Physical Disqualifier: If a person smells horrible, I probably won't be attracted, no matter how charming or good looking they are.

This is horrifying. I'm sorry. You should cut out the sex
