Are 'curvy' women really just fat?

lazygal · 22-02-2013 08:33PM #1

I hate references to 'real' women, invariably there's a picture of some chubby woman boasting about how she loves her 'curves', but she's really just fat. Is there some kind of collective delusion that allows men and women to say they are 'big boned' or the old 'I have a slow metabolism' rather than admit they are a fat tie?

I'm a lovely slim person, so I don't have these sort of delusions.

This should be entertaining for a friday night.

Everyone to their own.

Indeed.

Modest too I see?

HondaSami · 22-02-2013 08:37PM

All the negative comments are from the fatties.

sfwcork · 22-02-2013 08:38PM

Sooooooo you come here often?

Seachmall · 22-02-2013 08:39PM

Curvy women can be sexy.

Women who calls themselves curvy tend to be fat though.

Indubitable · 22-02-2013 08:40PM

I thought what happened was that curvy people were not fat and some fat people liked to call themselves curvy?

I'm er...... Curvy, a, curvy bloke.

Some women are curvy, some women are fat. Most fat women claim they are curvy

Two different things really. You can be curvy without being overweight. Boobs, bum, hips etc. all make curves.

Sciprio · 22-02-2013 08:44PM

A woman with curves in the right places is more attractive to me, than a skinny one who could probably puncture your lung if she gave you a hug.

Boombastic · 22-02-2013 08:44PM

They're just big boned or vertically challenged, maybe both

DEFTLEFTHAND · 22-02-2013 08:46PM

For example I'd classify Adele as being overweight, too much beef on the face, she'd be quite attractive if she lost about two stone.

Personally I like somebody who's at their optimum weight for their height, there's nothing attractive in my eyes about women who are severely underweight.

Is there not enough of those 'ugly women deluding themselves' type threads already?

You don't have to be fat to be a real woman, and you can be curvy without being fat, although it does seem to be a euphemism for being overweight.

You can also be thin and not be a skinny bitch, which is something I've been called and not expected to take offence at, although it is quite offensive.

eviltwin · 22-02-2013 08:46PM

Even when I was at my thinnest and underweight I had curves. I have big hips, a small waist and big boobs, your typical hourglass figure. You can't diet away bones. I'm never going to be Kate Moss nor would I want to be. I love my shape, I don't need to label myself a particular way to make myself feel better.

KTRIC · 22-02-2013 08:47PM

This is curvy

This is fat

Irish women seem to get them confused.

Grayson · 22-02-2013 08:47PM

I don't mind "Curves". But I can't stand fat. I think when you need to book two airline seats, you should stop using the phrase curvy to describe yourself. .

Would you say Beyonce is fat??? No!!!! She is curvy and she is hotter than most skinny women. So there.

I would not say that pic is curvy, she looks slim to me.

Rasheed · 22-02-2013 08:48PM

Christina Hendricks and Eva Mendes are curvy women.

But they're not fat.

So no, curvy women are not automatically fat.

Both are curvy, the second one a bit more so

This is fat.

Are 'curvy' women really just fat?
