On the other hand, I feel like I've got hips of a female. can't tell from that photo I posted. I'm probably too self-conscious.

I was joking. Posting a "flirty" response after I'd been talking partly about boobs seemed natural and harmless

Right, to get back on topic, I will not date someone obese. If you don't care about your own health, how can you care about someone else's? Of course there are probably exceptions and such to this generalisation, this is just what I feel. :\

Feel free to tear me apart. :D

Just because you are overweight, it doesn't mean your lazy or you don't care about your health. There are many people who are overweight because it's in their genes or they have a slow metabolism or something. There mare many people who try to lose weight but the find it very difficult.

I am aware of this. That's why I said there were exceptions. Never said they were lazy though.

Though I did tell you to feel free to tear me apart, so I suppose I invited that. D:

So if she was perfect in every other way, except for the fact that she had a small frame, it would be a deal-breaker?

That's pretty shallow actually...


So, if you meet a woman who's perfect in every other way - so perfect that you might even say she's "supernaturally" perfect - but you're not attracted to her because of the way she looks - that makes you shallow, eh? That old "pot and kettle" saying comes to mind.....

Actually, physical attraction is physical attraction. Men tend to be more hard-wired in terms of the physical traits that arouse them, women are less so. The only problems I see are when people pass judgment on others for their preferences, when people lie to partners or prospective partners about what they like, or when people allow societal pressures to influence their choice of romantic partners. Unless someone is dating you, why would the type of person they're physically attracted to possibly matter to you?
