Bigger Girls: Are They More Popular than We Think?

    I've come to the conclusion that there are a lot of guys who like bigger girls but don't let on. On more than one occasion I've heard of a man cheating on his thin partner with a bigger girl. I think this is the perfect example of how people sometimes choose social status and social acceptance over what they actually want.

    Anyway, that's my profound thought for today.

    I like a girl to have curves. But just how big we talking about? :pac:

    Take Serena Williams. She can be classed as a big woman (but sexy) but take Rosanne Bar - just a big woman :p

    Not entirely sure how basing someone's decision on weight is a profound thought...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,139 ✭✭✭Red Crow


    Big women aren't sexy but neither are really skinny ones. I hates those stupid "real women" photos on Facebook glorifying slightly overweight women. It's no problem being slightly overweight but stop branding it as being a "real woman".

    Yeah it's an ambiguous term. It can really mean anything between slightly curvy to really huge.

    its all about proportion mainly proportion is what matters [with the minimum being at least some padding]

    its all been blown massive out of proportion with our 'like' of skinny skinny girls, its the clothes hangers on catwalks that have caused all this ****e, a woman is supposed to look healty* not starved :(



    *nothing to do with fitness, just not under nourised [which girls is alot higher than what you think it is] let yourself go a little :)

    if you try hard to maintain a lower weight than what most people would call slim, chances are you are under weight for a female

    Seriously?!

    It's not even her weight that bothers me, it's the general slouchyness she gives off about not being arsed about anything in her life. I'd imagine some guy there, pluggin away like the clappers, and Roseanne is just channel surfing. Really off putting mental image in fact.

    Give me a curvy girl, boobs, bum, and hips with all the right curves in all the right places over a skinny yoke any day.

    What's sexy about skin and bones?

    Some men like big women but I've never once seen a thread about women's love for big fat men.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,043 ✭✭✭martinedwards


    curves are definitely better than corners.....

    but we all have different tastes.

    aint that good?

    and were programmed biologically like this too and have been for millions of years, evolution doesnt just change because we figured out how to farm and build supermarkets

    look we are all built for sex and kids,
    and back in the day the best chance of finding a mate and her surving through childbirth and the rearing the kids was paramount to the survival of the species, the skinny girls just died. at the root of us it is biologially unattractive
    we are just machines to carry our genes to the next generation ;)

    This is most likely because liking big fat men is more socially acceptable so it's not really a 'topic' so to speak.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,090 ✭✭✭jill_valentine


    Larger girl with confidence and charisma is far more attractive than a model figure with a crappy attitude, IMHO.

    Doesn't always translate in a pictures or whatever, but it's true in the real world.


  • Registered Users Posts: 42 Moofster


    Girls look hotter when they have curves for sure! Gimme boobs and hips and butt!

    no cause back in the day when life was just sex and reproduction and survival it was strong men with broad shoulders ect that got the girls usually and bred more, plus fat people are not nimble on their feet, which makes things difficult when you have to chase your food around to catch it for yourself her and the younglings to eat

    let your instincts guide you to attraction not what the media tell you is attractive

    To answer the Op's question: No, no they are not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,255 ✭✭✭✭Esoteric_


    I'm not skinny at all (size 14), but I hate when people say 'give me curves over skin and bones any day.'

    Since when is it okay to judge women for being thin, by calling them 'skin and bones?' Some people are naturally thin, why do they deserve insult from people who happen to prefer slightly bigger women?

    It's widely (no pun intended) seen as wrong to insult bigger women by calling them a fat ass, lard-arse, hippo or whatever else.

    So why is it okay to call thinner women 'skin and bones, sticks, etc?' It shouldn't be.


    Also, of course some men like bigger women, just like some men only like thin women.

    in the same way some women like smart men, some women dont too

    Maybe but I'd say a fat girl has a better chance of getting laid than a fat bloke.

    That's because a bit girl has a big ass and boobs that a lot of men find attractive. Girls don't find the same features attractive on men.

    There's a woman I know that's slightly on the large side and she's had more pr1cks than a second-hand dartboard. She's been married twice and is always with someone, so yeah, some men are definitely into large ladies.

    And sure why the fcuk not, they're just like other ladies, only they jiggle more :D

    there is nothing natural about human nature fat men were once considered attractive as it was a sign of wealth

    if you were to exclude the group of men who 'prefer' bigger women, would it be fair to say the rest of men who are with bigger women are with them only because they can't get a slimmer one?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,687 ✭✭✭blacklilly


    I think anyone who's secure in themselves won't mind admitting what they are attracted to, be it big women, small women or even gingers!!!

    I don't think women are as likely to let other people's opinions affect their decisions - not in regards to how a man looks anyway. In my opinion, women are more concerned about how a man handles himself socially. Men will be more likely to be embarrassed if they show off their other half who's not conventionally good looking, whereas women will usually be embarrassed only if the man is socially inept. It's generalising of course, but that's the way I see it.

    The bitches! :eek::pac:
    As said, that's because bigger women can have nice feminine curves, which do it for a lot of men. Also, men's bodies in general don't get discussed as much as those of women... and it seems fat women get more abuse than fat men, so there are more angles to the topic than the one you mention.
    To answer the Op's question: No, no they are not.
    Maybe you mean no, you are not?

    I think it's true. A lot of women have it in their head (thanks largely to mass media) that men exclusively go for skinny women (nothing wrong with that, by the way) but plenty of men can fancy women who are size 14 to 16 and bigger.
    I doubt many people fancy extremely obese people though, and that that's more of a fetishistic preference. Ditto extremely thin people.

    nope meant what i said first time :pac:

    i think the mass media angle gets over played too, bigger women often like to blame the media etc for not making them seem appealing enough. fact is magazines, films etc play to a market, they can drive a market also but to a lesser extent i would say.

    And yet that woman who can't be arsed about anything has managed to have a long running career, netting her €50 million. Not bad for someone who just slouches around, channel surfing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,466 ✭✭✭Clandestine


    I know that people have different tastes and the like and that tons of people like obese women/men, but i couldn't ever see myself being attracted to someone like that who can't take care of themselves properly.
