    I love a bigger guy..they're so comfy! I have dated thin guys, my current bf is around 230 and I can honestly say that someone who doesn't have some meat just isn't my thing! Plus its a great turn on to feel protected and small, amirite or amirite?

      You are correct. Being that the question is my own, it goes without saying that I am overweight. About 5'10" and 220lbs. I dig the fact that I can provide a more secure feeling in a relationship unlike an individual whose body weight resembles that of Kate Moss. Besides, I have two perks going for me, first of which being that I make for a most excellent snuggle buddy, and second, I put off A LOT of body heat. Well, not so sure if the latter is actually a perk, I've been told it is and I've also been told that it isn't.

        Haha, yeah..feeling secure is definitely important for every girl in a relationship. Well, most girls I know anyway. Omg I lol'd at the body heat..when I'm at my bfs, I sometimes use my own blanket because he gives off SO much heat with his body haha! I'm kind of a weirdo when it comes to sleeping though so its good he has a huge bed. Snuggling a boy with some meat on his bones is sooo comfy though! Hello instant pillow/blanket. :D

    No. If the person can't help it though I could deal with that, but I can't be attracted to people who are choose to be fat. It says a lot about there character, and I just love extremely skinny men, not sure why.

      I see what you mean, but there's a big difference between overweight and fat. To me, overweight is more like chubby, which is fine as long as the person still has a human sort of figure. As for fat, like obese, I don't dig that. Like you said, it does say a lot about someone when they don't help the fact that they are ginormous. Like having to buy two seats on a plane big. Not acceptable.

        Yeah, agreed. Plus someone may look very skinny, but actually be overweight, if that makes sense:L? I just don't like the mentality, but the answer to the question would still be no because I'm ridiculously attracted to very skinny men.

          Understood. I find some skinny men quite attractive as well.

  • Extremely skinny men are soo unattractive. So are overweight guys

    I'm athletic , so I don't really think an overweight guy would be very compatible with my lifestyle..

    It depends on how overweight. A little is fine, when they get to the point of being obese, that's not healthy. If they aren't healthy they aren't attractive to me.

    Uh-huh. My husband is what 'they' consider overweight. I think he's perfect. 8 inches taller than me and 100 pounds heavier. Mostly muscle with a cuddly layer of lovin :)

    I voted "other." I dated a guy that was not visibly "overweight" although he was not fit. His silhouette was thin, however he had a tummy and some extra meat around his arms. He was still wildly attractive and really good at sex - i was never more turned on by another human being as I was by him. I found his tummy really really cute, actually.

    No, personally if the guy has tits then it just won't work.

    i've dated overweight men b4 and the weight doesn't bug me at all. in fact dating a hot guy can be annoying bcuz girls are throwing themselves at him all the time(even right in front of me!) and plus they gets tons of temptations to cheat. i'd rather have an averagelooking guy. the only thing about a fat guy that bugs me is that they'd rather do something sedentary that go hiking, biking, dancing, etc. I like an active life.

        well I have seriously dated 2 different overweight/plain looking guys.. I had fhe same problem with both, I couldnt get them out to exercise, they both always just wanted to see movies all the time instead of do anything physical. they weren't bad guys though. anybody that's picture perfect in terms of looks is going to be spoiled and often conceited and shallow. I can do w/o all that! I just want a decent, trustworthy, intelligent, gentlemanly guy that doesn't think money and wealth are the end all be all, and with a good heart, caring, responsible.. is all that too much to ask???

    While I generally prefer my men to be slender to average, I would not turn down a bigger guy if he had a cute face. Besides - big guys are fun to hug. :)

    I'm 5'8 and 195. A little chubby but for some reason my belly is firm, not much jiggle, but fairly noticable.

    I have no interest in being thin, or having washboard abs. Unless you're an athlete, that's for little sissy boys who are in love with themselves a little too much.

    An overweight man, but not an obese man. If they're funny or smart, I'd dig 'em. :)

    I never have but I suppose I could date a chubby man. They tend to be funnier and that's a HUGE turn-on. And they're quite similar to teddy bears. I would probably feel more secure and appreciated. There are some that think they're hott stuff though. Always unattractive!

  • I'm bi, I could date a chubby woman but not a chubby man. Not sure why. I guess it just looks better on women.

    For such a long time I always thought (and still do) David Blue is so damn adorable. He is a hefty, dark haired, dark eyes white boy and when he smiles... oh my goodness :)

    There is a limit. First of all not all "overweight" guys are actually fat, some are just muscular. I'm pretty sure A-Rod is obese.

    If in fact they do have excess fat, overweight is fine, but obese absolutely not. If he had a great personality, I might date him and try and get him to lose weight or something.

    It's silly really because everyone is attracted to different types of people. I am attracted to thin guys for sure but that is just my personal preference.

  • joybird

    Most of my male friends are builders so although they are muscular they often have beer bellies. I think there is no problem at all, many are also bald, with tattoos too. All great guys that any girl would be lucky to go out with or married to.

  • frankiestrange

    Definitely! :) eg. The last guy that I 'liked' (Unfortunately didn't work out though :( ) He was a little larger than your average guy, but he was so lovely, and handsome, and he gave excellent cuddles! But yes, to answer your question, a guy that is a bit large or overweight, of course he can still be attractive! :)

        Actually you are pretty darn close, we got married when I was 17 and he was 16, yes I am a tad older than he is. He just turned 56 the first of October. We are happily wedded until death does us in. We started dating at 15 for both of us.

        No, they've known eachother since he was 15. They probably didn't get married instantly! XP.

    I know for a fact that fat guys are way more fun then skinny guys. its a sterio type in some cases though. so don't insinuate that just because hes fat he's fun to be around, trust me, I've been there. and by the way. some guys may look fat, but there completely muscular, so don't judge a book by its cover, thats right girls who don't like fat guys, that means you.
