It's come to my attention that curvy is in. I will never understand this generation. A woman with a fit appearance is so much more attractive to me than a woman who is obese. Nice clothes do wonders in terms of concealing bodily imperfections.
I'm being serious. It wasn't until I tapped into mainstream media that it came to my attention that there is such a large number of individuals out there pushing the agenda that women are fit and nicely built are anything less than the pinnacle of attractiveness.
I don't want to throw in this example but when I was on the street crime circuit, women with your figure were so much more valuable in any aspect of dealing and had much more bargaining power than "curvy" women, no matter what the men SAID they liked. Small, tight and fit will always be the default for attractiveness.
I don't think curvy means a thing anymore to be honest. Curvy used to mean a little over average way back when but now people use it for women up to 300 pounds. It's ridiculous.
The word itself implies the state of being sexually attractive. Most people desire to be sexually attractive and, instead of changing themselves, have turned made that word their own in hopes of changing how their body type is perceived.
It is not a terrible coping mechanism but even if they do change public perception, fit women will always be commonly more attractive.
I guess so but from what I've observed, there are a bunch of people lately just going for large women and by large, I mean the obviously large not just overweight.
I personally don't think obese people look healthy and so , I can't perceive them as attractive either. However, sometimes I'll find a slightly overweight person attractive but then that's not a big deal as it isn't a hindrance to their health and they're usually fairly fit as well.
I do think you're right about it helping them a bit in terms of coping. They probably do feel a bit better when people use curvy over obese to identify them by. I feel like psychologically, it's improving people but not health-wise.
Going for "curvy" individuals is nothing new. Most human behaviors are not new, but acceptance of those behaviors within a particular societal setting is.
No matter how acceptable "curvy" becomes, they will always be aware of their natural disadvantage in terms of attractiveness and most will envy the fit women. It is a poorly orchestrated facade.
You can be curvy and perfectly fit and healthy. Lots of men like curves; the hour glass figure accentuates the traditional 'feminine' body shape; wide hip-to-waist ratio, reasonably sized boobs and ass.
The idea that curvy is a polite way of saying they're more fat than person just doesn't ring true to me.
That's what I thought it meant but obviously I was wrong, considering that curvy is being used to describe everything from a full figure to a husky one.
i have to disagree. apparently, in the real world, at some time, curvy started to mean big, not curvy as in well endowed with female parts. i am single and if someone wants to introduce me to someone curvy, that's a red light. its a rare occasion, that someone described as curvy does mean an hour glass figure.
IIN I lost all my self esteem all because of someone's butt?

Curvy =/= obese
You can be curvy and perfectly fit and healthy. Lots of men like curves; the hour glass figure accentuates the traditional 'feminine' body shape; wide hip-to-waist ratio, reasonably sized boobs and ass.

Maybe it depends where you're from. If someone who was obese described themselves as 'curvy', I'd assume they were kidding (or in denial).

doctorangeldust is correct.

As I said, perhaps it depends on where you're from.
This isn't my experience.
