What is it about chubby women?

[Cathleen]

Knowing All that I know, the good and bad, I'd definately do it again tho acctually she chose me. LOL. Without trying to sound too mushy, I can't imagine myself with anyone else.

Thanks, seems she chose well and you're both lucky. That wasn't too mushy... I bet you can get lots mushier then that.

 

[umchick5]

I agree with Wickid, it is more disturbing that you act if something is wrong with you to like a chubby woman. I myself have lots of curves, but for the most part they are in all the right places. Even when I was thinner, I always had an "athletic" body with bigger thighs and larger arms.

I guess it all depends on what you yourself craves. Personally, you can find a person who you think it hot, but then their personality is a dud. Good luck with figuring it out for youself....

PS: If you want to see more curves, check out my thread.

Ricwilly, you are my hero of the day! What beautiful sentiments about the love you share with your wife. Bravo!

One of those Supermodel reality shows had a plus sized black woman, she was gorgeous.

Cheers,
Brad

Exactly my point: she was like a size 10... plus size with a size 10?
I found her in the show's web pages... now that is not plus size, that is... just perfect!

Also, I think the initial attraction/reticence, the first impression, fades when you get to know the person; the personality often overrides the looks I think. It's a package; if she feels confident, feels beautiful, intelligent what have you, others will see her the same way, whatever her size.

My mother has a neighbor who is plus size (a real plus size, not a size 10!) and she's beautiful, reminds me of Marilyn Monroe when she smiles and waves hello at me.

As for health issues... I can only speak for myself, but I doubt illness would shy me away from someone.

My current BF is heavier than the men I have been with in the past. True I would not have picked him out of a room full of men. I am happy that I got to know him... Just between you and I he is a better lover than any of the slimmer guys that I have dated.

 

[Lailarenna]

For quite awhile I was very nervous to tell my long distance boyfriend exactly how much I weighed, because even though he said it didn't matter, being the self-conscious thing that I am, I was sure it would. One day I was on a friend's pc and decided to use the webcam. About halfway through the conversation I got up to try and rummage around for some breakfast (I'd been there all night, slept on the couch), completely oblivious to the fact that the camera was even still on me. Not only did he get a shot of me rubbing my ass as I stood up (stupid hardwood chairs), but he saw me, head to toe, large thighs, potbelly, and big butt in a tank top and jean shorts. And you know what? He still drools over that a year and a half later. Somehow, I'm just not that worried anymore.

 

[Ricwilly]

Thanks bobsgirl.
It's good to see people breaking away from the media influence and accepting themselves and others as the imperfect and beautiful humans we all are. I applaud you all.

I don't mind a full figured woman but I recently had an experience with a middle-aged chubby women and to be honest it pretty much scarred me into finding celibacy attractive.

I know not all chubby women let them themselves go so much, this one happened to not do much exercise, smoked and in all honesty gravity had taken it's toll, a nice person but the experience was one I wouldn't like to repeat.

 

[bholderman]

There is a difference between chubby and slovenly. Even a decent body can be destroyed by slovennessness (ugh?).

Cheers,
Brad

cool thread...

This is something that I've thought about a bit.
The one thing that keeps coming to mind is High School biology (yes, believe it or not!).
The term "evolutionary advantage" keeps popping up in my head. Like others have suggested, attraction is deeply rooted in our prehistoric makeup... i.e: will she be able to bear children to continue my genes, is she healthy, is her genetic makeup varied to mine, does she have sufficent fat store to survive the lean times....

In some ways we haven't progressed far beyond the old cave man days anmd I think sexual attraction is one of those areas.
I think the smell of a person plays a huge part in attraction. Not neccessarily is he or she wearing the latest Calvin Klein scent, but on a hormonal (pheromonal) level.
If you ever get the chance to get close to someone who catches your eye, close you eyes and see what they smell like.... I find that I'm smell-attracted to all sorts of people...

Sexiness isn't about weight. It's about the way they carry themselves, their charisma, their facial features. etc.

I'm a healthy size 14. I'm 5ft 3 and weigh nearly 200lbs. You know what? I have offers from men ALL the time. 6years ago I was, 120lbs and couldn't get a date to save my life!

I've found a ton of men who drool over my tits and ass and say they love my plump, voluptuous body.

I'm curious as to why you seem to think its "wrong" or "abnormal" to be attracted to a girl with a big, curvy ass?

Here's a pic of my plump form (I rarely get any complaints on it!)

 

[Leeleigh]

There is nothing wrong with loving a fat woman. I am told its all in the attitude that we carry. I am a fat woman, fatter now at this point in my life than I have ever been.. I will never lie about that.. But it does not stop me from being exciting and a hell of a turn on to some men based on the reactions I have gotten from my stories and my thread. Men just have to learn how to look at us, aka BBW's, as the sensual sexual beings that we are..

Just shut your eyes and go for the ride guys... hang on tight, the ride will be wild and bumpy. Trust me, we will leave you riden hard and put away wet...

 

[4square]

Yes

For me its how a woman carries herself........with confidence.
I see lots of wonderful women of all sizes at the gym, and the sexy ones carry themselves with confidence.

 

[buttmunch69]

Interesting stuff this.
The whole size thing is getting more than a little confusing these days. There seems to be so much pressure on women to be 'slim' or even plain scrawny.
I, for one, hate such stuff.
I'm a bloke who finds larger ladies, o the whole, far more appealing than very slender ones.
While I can enjoy the 'prettiness' of slender girls, I don't actually find them as sexy as larger ladies, I definitely opt for voluptuous over slenderness.
Actually, I do think that much of this, as has already been mentioned on the thread, has to do with evolution etc.
As I actually consider humans to be basically monkees with gadgets, it's easier to see why this should be. To me, women were never really meant to be flat assed and shapeless, there are reasons why they tend to carry most of their fat around their lower bodies.
Interestingly, a while ago, I was reading some stuff by doctor's who were talking about the body mass index question, basically they were saying that health is not easily determined by body weight/fat alone, more important, is the distribution of the fat, in essence, if a woman has a bigger waist/ hip differential as opposed to a smaller one, she is theoretically less likely to develop certain health problems such as heart disease.
They basically concluded that the 'pear shaped' woman is likely to have a longer and healthier life than a very slender or obese woman.
I also recall reading a while ago that certain women will stop having periods once their body fat level drops below circa 16%.
Almost suggests that possible evolution deides that at such a low level of body fat, reproduction may not be a particularly great idea.

Anyway, all that bollocks aside, I'll just say that I, for one, am really pleased that figures such as Jlo and Beyonce are becoming more popular, they're not particularly big admittedly but they are noticeably more curvy than the usual media 'darlings'
Among my own favourite body shapes are such women as Lucy Lawless (aka Xena) Nigella Lawson and Marilyn Monroe-owner of perhaps the most gorgeous behind in history.
So, in essence, I feel that for many blokes, hopefully most, seeing larger women should bring out the horniness within, it certainly does for me, hits me at a different level entirely to when I look at a slender woman.
There's nothing to worry about with this sort of response to a decent showing of flesh, it's perfectly O.K.
And as for the stuff about cellulite, well, all the better for chewing on.

 

[zartol]

Everything.

 

[stingostation]

Girls with a little weight on them are sexy. Furthermore, they've got strength to rotate their hipsjust as I orgasm. Just mind blowing!

 

[chrk1]

I had a strange experience yesterday and I wonder if I'm weird or something.

I was at the pool yesterday and I saw this woman. She was about 5'8", brownish hair down to the middle of her shoulder blades, skin evenly bronzed all over, black bikini (which revealed some tan lines), tattoo on her lower back, probably in her late 30's.

The odd thing was that I found her attractive even though she was chubby below the waist. Her body was nearly perfect except for the cellulite butt peeking through the bikini bottoms. Her thighs were not huge but noticeably large.

Yet I haven't been able to stop thinking about her.

What's wrong with me? LOL

why would you think something is wrong with you? i think any guy would be turned on by what you described.

My hubby has been telling me for 30 yrs that it was my scent that attracted him to me! He said that if he was blindfolded and put into a room with several ladies including me,that he would know which one I was by the smell! I'm guessing that it was a good thing. We have been married all these yrs and he still finds me as atttractive as he did then!

 

[midwestyankee]

Attraction is a mystery, as is love...fortunately! I have long maintained that the best thing about my beloved's body is that it is attached to her.

I don't think I can say it any more simply than this.

 

[babydoll2u]

I would take a woman with a few extra pounds here and there anyday compared to the skinny as a rail women who's whole goal in life is to be that perfect size whatever that is.I especially love that shape of a woman who has had children and has filled out in all the good areas.The wider hips ,larger breasts,I see guys where I work that go all nuts over women who come in to work and I am like,why?They are so skinny they need a sign that say's front and back.They look anerexic.I am afraid with a skinny woman I may put it in soft and when it gets hard I may hear her ribs crack.

For me its all about health. Size is not important but looking healthy is the first thing ill notice.

thank you, thank you, thank you!
Whether you call us voluptuous, chubby, bbw's, fat.... doesn't matter. There is nothing wrong with being attracted to a larger woman.

I am large, I am fun, I am sexy as hell, and I deserved to be desired and loved just as much as my slimmer sisters

I read on one of the posts that a size 10 is considered full-figured ?? BS.... go into any department store and the full-figure sizes
begin at 14.. but most of the manufacturers don't label you full-figured (or bbw) until you're size 16 or above.

*mutters... size 10 my ass....*

 

[babydoll2u]

Weird Harold, you are totally right-on.
I am wondering if the reason painters like Gauguin, Matisse, Boullaire, Le Moine, and writers like London, Melville, Loti, Stephenson and Michener all went to Polynesia, the Marquesas and Tahiti was the luscious women there! So abundantly feminine, sensual.. soft, rounded and full of form! Also, the natural self-acceptance and sexuality of the women these painters portrayed makes them absolutely glow.

Thank goodness there are many women in the world, and here in the USA that also glow... me thinks attraction is not so much about size and shape as it is how one feels... if one feels sexy.. it shows.

aaaaaamen...

she is definitely not a plus-size

In no means was I implying size 10 WAS full figured. I was implying that thinness was so overrated that people in general would consider a size 10 to have a little extra pounds. My point of view is the same as yours on that silly stick-thin-craze.
