Admittedly, we don't run in the big city black tie charity set where that may be prevalent. I think I'm pretty typical as I'm 5'5" and weigh 145 for a BMI of 24.1 which is at the high end of "normal weight". I'd love to get down to 135 but at 55 it seems to get tougher to lose weight. Would my husband like me to be skinny? I'm sure he'd like me to be 135 but at 120 pounds there would not be much for him to grab onto and since we have a very active sex life he seems quite happy. I think most men have a preference for women who may carry some extra pounds but are active and pretty fit.

You need to lose about 15 to 20lbs. I’m 5’8” 138, 37/25/38 with a normal BMI . At 144, your BMI is overweight.

No. It is not.

Considering most people lie about their weight, BMI is still 25 which is considered overweight. Especially belly weight which is the cause of all kinds of health issues.

At 144, BMI is not overweight.

Unless you are training hard with a lot of muscle mass your weight is fine . But with a waist measurement at 30 I highly doubt it. But this is the mindset of women these days with the obesity epidemic. People are getting more and more excepting of being overweight and just don’t give a shit anymore. I’ve traveled to England, Ireland and the same there . Obesity population there was unbelievable. This one man knew rt away I was a tourist. I asked why, he said because I was so fit(size6), and we don’t see women like you much around here.

Apparently people are also getting more and more accepting of being illiterate. Maybe take some time away from the gym and from patting yourself on the back, and take a refresher course in the English language.

I think this is closer to the truth. People hang out with people of their own class. Wealthy people feel social pressure to be thin and fit. They have the resources to make that happen. They meet and marry those in their class who also happen to be thin and fit.

Or as someone else mentioned they want to signal their class status by their choice of mate, and the higher caste ones are thin and fit.

BUt, as someone else mentioned, they may truly desire someone thicker or curvier. That's what APs are for.

And before you fat shame me, I’m 53 years old, 5’5 and 115 pounds. I don’t diet. I eat like a horse. It’s genetics. I am naturally thin. That doesn’t make me better than my 200 pound friend.

Most of the fat shaming I see comes FROM girls with eating disorders.

And vice versa. Most skinny shaming comes from overweight women.

Exactly. Overweight women have no problem telling you how thin you are, but not in a complimentary way. Can you imagine if we did that to them!? I’d have a black eye once a week..

Not true at all. I prefer a size 6-12 with curves. Have dated plenty of skinny woman, doesn’t do it for me.

You’re confused. Size 6 is skinny.

That depends on height. Size 6 is not skinny for a 5'6" woman. The problem is that reference points keep changing. Now that 70% of women are overweight or obese (80% of hispanic or black women), simply not being overweight is defined as skinny. A bmi of 24 is not "skinny" by any means. It simply is not overweight. A 5'6" woman in a size 6 is right on the border of being medically overweight (Bmi > 25)
