That with a mixture of zero exposure to normal bodys he can have terrible effects. Like how guys who watch alot of pon think their penises are below averge because they have only seen stonkers

But if they are so susceptible then it's their problem. They should be helped by having their self-confidence increased, not their paranoias encouraged. That way you'll only make things worse.


If men or women want an ideal body they must work hard to get it. We should all know that goals are attained through hard work, discipline a self-sacrifice, not complaining.

If they want an average body that's their choice but then they shouldn't feel insecure compared to those who worked very hard to attaining peak fitness.


Not everyone can obtain an ideal body no matter how hard they workout. They can obtain some level of physical fitness, but working out will not rid someone of all of their physical imperfections.


Why does an 'ideal body' have to be imperfection free? Perhaps people get carried away with what an ideal body has to be...they want a fantasy body not a real attainable body.


Because otherwise it wouldn't fit the definition of ideal.

[quote="The_Face_of_Boo"]Meanwhile..... a lot of "BBW" want want tall and fit to accept them, but they laugh at short men.


Profile full of red flags, drug addict...horrible....but I was curious to know what's BBW there, I forgot what it is.


This time I am not cropping anything so Sweetleaf doesn't accuse me again of creating those.

What would women think if they saw a man with a profile like that?

Hmmm.... this gives me an idea of an experiment, I am gonna message overweight/MoreToLove/Overweight women and check the attitude they demand from men toward their over weight VS their own attitude toward shortness in men, I already have an idea of past experiences but it will be interesting to make a showcase of this....double standard attitude.

Let's see if they adopt what they preach against body shaming (hint: most of the ones I met online didn't so far).
Boo, she didn't actually say she would not date a short man. You said you're short and she said yes you are.

You terminated the experiment prematurely.

This is the point where I say that you men need to lay off social sites, and stop trying to play head games with women. Laugh off your awkwardness. Find a woman that is more likely to hang out with you as a friend.

You don't need a type, you need a friend.

I 'sensed' the "attitude" :p

You think only women can sense attitudes?

You know Peacesell, when all women who are taller than you tell you they won't date you because you're too short for them then the natural and normal thing to do is to start avoiding wasting time with any woman taller than you. It's pretty natural to develop this 'complex'.

Regardless you ruined the experiment but not waiting until she explicitly said she hates short guys.

Is the reason you date so many Asian girls because many of them are shorter than you?

It's the truth that women usually want to date guys taller than them.

But so what?

There's lots of cute women around who are 5 feet and under.

It is the reverse, it is for that reason Asian girls are by far more likely to accept to date me.

also lol at you implying women who don't reply to you are rude, but then admitting you don't respond to fat women.

come on dude lol

I can almost guarantee women aren't responding to you, because they sense this attitude^

for the record I think its totally fine that you aren't attracted to fat women, preference shouldn't be something we feel bad about, but don't assume because its not your preference that others feel the same way.



Women aren't responding to me because they sense I have an 'attitude'? I don't mention women's weight in my profile or in my messages I send at all. Are they capable of magic, are they? They can magically tell I'm not attracted to fat women?

Can you explain what you said?

Again, another woman jumping to irrational beliefs and making statements that have no logic.



IDK based on this response I wouldn't be surprised if maybe they do sense a little bit of stuck up/superiority complex attitude from you. I get it you don't like that poster thinks maybe people could pick up on your attitude online...but its certainly not that terribly out there of a possibility.

Also the way you worded that seems to imply you think women are generally irrational and illogical, that is an example of how people can sense your attitude on-line.


Sweetleaf is right to an extent. Women can't read your mind but we can sense a tone in how your profile or messages are written.

Uhh well it's confusing to me, I like my body but its certainly not imperfection free...I tend to think of it as ideal for me. Even the most perfect looking people have physical imperfections.

The blue collar job isn't an issue, as you have pointed out that some of your friends have no difficulty.
The house may be a plus to some women.

But "no friends" is certainly "red flag" as it brings into question your ability to form relationships.

So, yes, "no friends" will certainly drop your status.

It depends greatly on the culture, I've heard that Asians in Australia are ....quite wealthy Chinese and South Koreans, right?
Generally speaking , Chinese/SKs are less into dating foreigners than Indonesians/Filipinos/Thai/Vietnamese which are the nationalities we have here.

But honestly....I do get interest from Chineses in China, but I dunno about Chinese in OZ.

They do tend to be picky when it comes to weight btw, maybe even more than Westerners - so even if you are bit overweight according to an European/White build they might see as very overweight and will judge you harshly on it. And they do care about man being taller than them, a lot.

Still, you should be very careful from gold/visa-diggers when dating foreigners though, so it's not always all rosy.

An interesting read.

Quote:
To see if the women would go for short guys who were successful, ABCNEWS’ Lynn Sherr created extraordinary résumés for the shorter men. She told the women that the shorter men included a doctor, a best-selling author, a champion skier, a venture capitalist who’d made millions by the age of 25.

Nothing worked. The women always chose the tall men. Sherr asked whether there’d be anything she could say that would make the shortest of the men, who was 5 feet, irresistible. One of the women replied, “Maybe the only thing you could say is that the other four are murderers.” Another backed her up, saying that had the taller men had a criminal record she might have been swayed to choose a shorter man. Another said she’d have considered the shorter men, if the taller men had been described as “child molesters.”

Lest you think this is an example of reality TV finding evidence to support a story, Tom tried his own experiment last week. Sure enough, few women give a fair shake to a man who is 5’3”, no matter what else he has going for him.

I’m going to let Tom take it from here.

So I tried changing my profile for three days just to see what the difference was between being 5’3″ and 5’10”. I wanted to know if height was the only difference and the constant deal breaker. So I moved my profile from Pittsburgh and posted it for 3 days in a town where nobody knew me (Philadelphia). Here’s what I found:

5’3” in Pittsburgh /5’10” in Philadelphia
Mutual matches 0 /80
Reverse matches 12 /400
Petite women w/pics w/in 50 miles 45 /650
Views in 3 days 11 /212
Emails received – unsolicited 0 /32
Winks received – unsolicited 2 /28
Emails sent out 6 /6
Replies received to emails sent out 0 /6

What a super extreme disadvantage, even worse than AS probably, so for some women only child molesters and murderers are worse than a decent short guy.
