You can have him. Are you a feeder or chubby chaser?

Nah, that's definitely fat. People have tried to normalize being overweight because it's so common, but unless he is very muscular (and clearly he is not) that size qualifies as fat.

It is entirely possible for a man who is 6' and 225 lbs to not be fat. However, OP indicated that her husband doesn't work out - and that means he's definitely overweight. I am 6' and 195 lbs, do work out (though I should) do more, and definitely need to tone more and lose 10 lbs around the middle.

Sniffing your panties after you work out, puts me in the mood.

See that would make most women want to never work out again.

I’ll give you that one. However, when going down on woman, her pheromones are kicking and gets me going.

BMI does not factor in muscle tone. For me, people look at me and are surprised by my weight. I am built like a linebacker, which means I do not look my weight.

Huh?! Almost all linebackers are fat. They have a big gut hanging over their pants. Yes, they’re strong — but they’re pretty fat too. It’s not a good look. Next you’ll be saying you’re not “fat” you’re just built like a sumo wrestler!

NP here. Linebackers aren't fat, but I seriously doubt this guy is not fat at 6'2"/260. Unless he is an absolute beast at working out and has a huge amount of muscle, he almost certainly has 40 pounds of fat on him.

Right.... Because the NFL linebackers aren’t fat at all... That’s pure muscle in the shape of a beach ball concentrated in their midsections...

Men are SO delusional about what they look like and this thread is proof!

I thought maybe he would want to work out with me if he saw me working hard and we could make it a couples thing but no. Then he wonders why I’m never in the mood to have sex.

I love him and don’t ever see myself cheating or leaving him over this - I just had to vent my frustration somewhere. The double standard between men and women is not fair. I don’t think he’s depressed. Just hates exercise and loves ice cream. Oh well.

There’s no double standard—just lazy, selfish, unhealthy spouses of both sexes. This is my wife, exactly. She doesn’t seem to care at all that she is borderline obese. I’m pretty fit, and only 5 pounds heavier than when we married 15 years ago. She is about 30 pounds heavier, which is an awful lot since she is 5’5”.

Of course there is a double standard. Men's bodies can be mitigated by money. Women are really at the mercy of the media (and other men and women). There are standards for both, but men have a lot more flexibility to be overweight and unattractive if other factors can mitigate that. Women in power are judged by their clothes, their hair, their makeup (or lack of make up), in general, their looks, their size.

I'm sorry your wife is overweight and you aren't. Welcome to life where nothing is fair.

Men's bodies are not mitigated by money. This is wishful thinking invented by men since men have typically been in power. Men's bodies are men's bodies, and we all see them for what they are. Just like Tiffany Trump is able to still date cute guys even after she gained 40 pounds or whatever, because of her power and cash. It's for centuries women haven't had the capital- now we do, and the truth about what women think is finally being heard.

You do know those two guys pictured aren't linebackers, right?

The title of this thread reminds me of this lyric

Where did any man in here say that was slim and trim?

All the posters saying that mid-200 pounds isn’t fat if you’re built like a linebacker — several claimed that they weighed that much but were in “great shape” and not overweight because they’re just built like a linebacker...
