Curvy Women

    Ok I wanted to post this after talking to my girlfriends friend today. Basically she is fat. She tried to tell me that guys like curvy women. This is true. We don't like them stick thin. But "curvy" deosn't mean a curvy belly or a curvy ass or curvey tighs or a curvey back. When guys say they like curvey women we mean(for the most part) that we like thin girls with big tits and a round ass. I know this is a pretty pointless thread but some girls really don't know this and if I bring even a few back to reality, my job will be done.

    I love the difference between Irish curvy and French/Italian curvy.

    Irish curvy = obese.

    French/Italian curvy = good genes, exercise + good food.

    I think Irish women assume McDonalds will give them curves.

    OP: I know exactly what you're talking about. There's an easy solution (I took it up a few years ago): just stop being with Irish women. There are enough foreigners in Dublin to never have to look at another dilusional Irish woman again.

    And you know what? I haven't even mentioned their aggressive Irish, "wish I had a cock/wish I was a man" personalities yet...

    This man speaks the truth. I gave up on Irish women back in July. Too far up their own arses if you ask me.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,382 ✭✭✭✭AARRRGH


    I'm on my second bottle of wine. I'm working on a new "dating" website http://www.casavblanca.ie. Basically, I don't believe people should have to pay someone to meet them: being lonely can be horrible. So it'll be a free website.

    I'm working on the design and editing the code. But I'm seriously drunk so I know when I review my work tommorrow night I'll be like...wtf?

    I love the way alcohol makes me believe I'm right :D

    Ooh, what wine are you drinking dublindude?

    Because of my poker antics, my sleeping pattern is screwed up. I was up all night friday night playing poker. So here I am, I've nothing to be up for on Monday, well I do have to be up noon but hey, 6hrs or so of sleepage is good enough.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,382 ✭✭✭✭AARRRGH


    I'm drinking Viognier "Laurent Miquel". It's made near my girlfriends place, is a very popular wine in France, and Dunnes sell it!!! :D:D It's cheapish (€9) and a good wine.

    Poker: too fashionable for me!! I'm a blackjack freak.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭scojones


    Bah, there's no skill in blackjack!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,382 ✭✭✭✭AARRRGH


    Nah, not true! As an honest player, I know my skills will always give me a 2% disadvantage. BUT, the skill is walking away after 15 minutes when you're up a few hundred (which is easy in BJ, as it's nearly 50/50.)

    There was some science program on about dating some months back. They believed that the womans weight was not a huge factor providing each stat was in proportion to the other.

    although afair on the show they were unable to prove it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,382 ✭✭✭✭AARRRGH


    Of course proportion is OK, WHEN THE GIRL IS NOT FAT.

    But an obese girl will always be obese.

    Hotness, sexness, wowness is always non-fat girls.

    I saw this program a while back or maybe a different one but the gist of it was the ratio that men find most attractive is 1:1.614

    That is universal to all parts of the body. A woman would have a waist to hip ratio of 1:1.614. etc.. The more beautiful the person the closer they were to the ratio.

    They measured Peter Stringfellow, he was mingin!

    I though it had something to do with symetry (sp) or something like that. The more symetrical a womans face the more it apeals to a man.

    That's another factor, though there's an optimum degree of symetry, beyond which people (the symetry thing works with all sexes and orientations) tend to have an immediate reaction of "oh, they're pretty" but lose interest after a bit.

    That's the Golden Ratio (goes by other derivitives) which is found in nature.For some reason it appeals to our sense of sight and is so used in marketing many many things knowing it will make it more attractive to people who will therefor want to by it.
    Credit cards,wallets,VHS tapes,beds,envelopes,cards et cetere et cetera all have this ratio.

    And they found that if you take different measurements across a persons face;say the bridge between the eyes,the length of the nose from brow to tip,length and width of eyes,the height and width of their mouth,loads of points like this across a face and compare them you will find this 1:1.6 ratio very very common with beautiful people.

    You're talking about the Fibonacci number.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 344 ✭✭Cosine


    You're talking about the Fibonacci number.

    Thats the name. Couldn't think of it. Aparently almost (maybe even every) part of the human body conforms to this ratio. A friend doing ergonomics explained it to me not long ago. The first bone in your finger compared to the next one and so on up the arms and legs. Aparently someone built a building using that ratio and it is still heralded as one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.

    NAAAHHHH I can't remember the name of the building/who designed it. Heh chances are its Fibonacci and I can't remember :v:

    I didn't post all women think...., and I didn't try to suggest that that was what all women think. If you read the OP properly I was talking about my gf's friend's opinion, and I then said some girls really don't know this.

    I wasn't mocking someone else's intellect, I was making a random groundless comment, like the one I quoted. Also, that was a grammatical error, not a spelling error.

    "Curvy" is a common eupemism these days, for bigger / slightly larger womens figures. Its not used to describe someone obese! - but it's not used for your size 10 models figure either. Mostly its used to describe size 14 - not skinny but not fat. Your average model would be horrified if they were described as "curvy".

    curvy is a common euphemism
    this is true like hour glass is a girl with a big chest and hips
    pear shape is a girl with small chest and a big back side
    I'm a big girl but I'm not obese.

    I like curves. Even Irish curves. Especially Irish curves. Not particularly overweight--it's hard to remain politically correct here--just not fatties.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,676 ✭✭✭ArphaRima


    Try the Body Mass Index. I think you may find that you fall foul of the official measurement of obesity or at least the upper end of overweight.

    http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/calc-bmi.htm

    There is a shocking amount of overweight girls in Ireland. And it is not equally reflected amongst the men for some reason, though the men are represented. Irish girls are overweight as an international comparison. The attitude doesnt help either.

    bmi doesn't take into account musscle mass, so would be a poor baromater.

    i was considered overweight, even though my body fat was around 10%.

    i'd consider a body fat test much more telling.

    women would carry more body fat than men, and adverage around 20%, this i would consider curvey.

    i'd say the adverage irish woman would be 30%, this is overweight.

    fas girl looks around, 14% (i'm asuming she has a nice ass, 12% if she don't)

    to recap,

    13% and under, skinney

    14 - 18% fit
    20 - 25% curvey
    25+% fat

    I watched 'Scope' last nigth and it was excellent -it gave a proper defininition of 'curvy'. Curvy has recently been used by anyone overweight to makethemselves sound more attrcative and put down skinny women. ACTUALLY - 'Curvy' has been defined scientifically as ' the difference in width between a womans waist and her hips'. Women with this build are more likely to be healthy and of childbearing ability so back in cave man days would have been most attrcative to man as a mate. They did a test on scope last night and found that men are in fact most attracted by this shape. However you dont need to be big to be curvy - a girl who is wize eight with w very defined waist is still curvy as the width ratio between her waist and hips will be high. Heavy women often describe themselves as curvy but many that I know are actually overweight - some dont actually have a defined waist at all. thers a difference between people who are naturally curvy and those that are overweight yet it gets very confused these days,.

    tis a bit of an unfair generalisation tbh, though yes i would agree there are alot of fat/loud/annoying irish women out there, does that mean you just turn your nose up at ALL irish women?
    so if you're talking to a nice girl and she turns out to be irish, you're just gonna ignore her??

    I agree it is sad. But decent Irish women (forgetting about the weight issues) are so rare that I just couldn't be bothered wasting my time or taking a risk with them.

    The main problem (I believe) is that Irish women think being feminine is somehow being weak, and that they need to act like men to compete with men... They have forgotten they are actually female and they don't need to be so aggressive.
