Me too!
I have an hourglass figure and perfectly hourglass proportions. Yet I still feel like my shape is unattractive. I mean, girls have told me that they are jealous of my (supposed) 'assets', but guys just don't seem interested at all.
If I became a size 2, I would not look natural at all. I just don't think my body can do that heathily. But it seems like guys prefer girls who are skinny with little to no curves to girls with feminine proportions.
Why is curvy now considered large?? |

Also women of healthy weight are more attractive for more obvious evolutionary reasons - sick people are bad at making and staying alive to look after babies. Also on the human instinct program, I saw that despite the media's obsession with very skinny women, most men prefer a somewhat curvy woman.
I don't think we should criticize people for being attracted to a certain type of person, or call it prejudice - who or what someone is attracted to can be strange and not under one's control. |
That sounds about right amaren. Im suprised the program didnt explicitly state why fat people are considered sexually unattractive. Statistics have shone that Obesisty is a sign of bad genes because it coincides with a whole host of health problems. I wonder if women view fat men as having a greater potential for impotency or at least low virility. |
My bf told me that bigger men have a harder time getting blood flow to the area when aroused, so they're less likely to be able to get it up or have a sex drive. I think many women think this as well. |

It seems like, whatever size you are, you cant win. Id kill for hips and the hourglass shape, but I'm naturally skinny, I do overly well in the chest department (lol), but it just isnt good enough because i need more mass in my hips and legs as some people think. :/ Right now it seems like everyone likes curvy girls to me. If you were to lose your figure, all of a sudden youd notice how many guys love curvy women. Society is strange. |
