So you weigh 172, but a woman who weighs 175 is way too fat for you? Maybe you should make sure you yourself have a perfect body type before you decide women are un-datable if they weight even two more pounds than you.

Also it seems like the thing you value above all else when it comes to women is how much they weigh, or at least you are hyper-focusing on it which probably isn't helping. Lol if I had been such a stickler on weight I wouldn't have the awesome boyfriend I do.


Why does a guy need a perfect body type (I assume you mean by that muscled athlete Adonis?) just to get a healthy weight girlfriend? Is that how you put people into boxes/leagues? You think only muscled hunks deserve any healthy weight female?

Its a lot easier to get to a healthy weight than be a muscled Hunk.

What would women think if we told them who they need to be ripped and conditioned with a body like a 200m Olympic female sprinter just to be able to date a man of healthy weight. They'd be outraged of course.

What if obese men in the USA declared that they are the male ideal, and then used multiple mainstream media outlets to shame women for not liking men with guts and fat overhanging their privates?

I'm a healthy weight and I like women of healthy weights. Why is it asking too much for my equal?


Where in my post does it say a guy needs to have a perfect body type or be a muscled hunk to date a female of a healthy weight?

I believe I was implying 175 is like 3 more pounds than your weight, how is it you're at a healthy weight weighing 172 but a woman who weighs 175 is suddenly unhealthily fat? Unless there is like a major height difference like she has that condition where you don't grow to normal size and is like 4 feet tall.

Also if you only see women who weight the exact same or less than you as 'equals' then maybe you don't deserve a relationship at all, you aren't a superior human being to people who weigh more than you. I mean ok maybe if there is a specific trashy person that really just doesn't give a crap about them-self, other people or anything around them then I guess you could argue you're a superior individual to them...but I doubt that describes the majority of overweight people.

This obsession with weight and one's body is absurd. We're not supposed to stay the size of children throughout our lives.


I also think it's crazy as well and the fat shaming goes way too far.

The categorization of "fat girls" is disgusting and shows up far too often on this forum.

Women have a problem finding guys to date online who don't objectify them.

Everybody objectifies each other.

The key is to be respectful to each other while you're objectifying each other.

Yeah. Even the obese ones think they're too good for me.

How did the market become so heavily tipped in their favour that I need a degree while they don't need to maintain a healthy weight?

Trying to convince someone they're attracted to obese people when they're not is about as logical as trying to convince gay people they're attracted to the opposite sex.

My crazy opinion is that people are allowed to be attracted to whatever they're attracted to.

If a guy doesn't want to date a fat chick, cool. However, if a woman doesn't want to date a jobless guy, also cool.

and let's not forget also that a lot of fit women wouldn't want to date fat guys; this is also common.

Of course.

I was just using those as quick examples.

People don't want to date other people for all sorts of reasons. I was mostly just saying that I don't think there's anything wrong with men or women having standards.

Precisely. You are after women in an age range that is extremely desirable to most eligible men.

I wouldn't blame women for not wanting to date a jobless guy. If I was a woman I wouldn't want to date a jobless guy either.

True. Do women have have broad age range then men? If men have a narrower age range that might explain why women within that age range can afford to be choosy, even if they're fat and/or unemployed.

All men, from those in their twenties to those who are fifty, want to date a woman in her early twenties. The most commonly chosen ages are 20-23. For almost every year in his thirties, a man is most attracted to a 20-year-old woman. And a 50-year-old man is really gunning for a 22-year old on his arm.
