Obesity is an epidemic. A trajectory that seems to be growing out of control. It's effects are of course going to have many sociological and cultural ramifications as it unfolds at present and in the future.

There seems to be a rise in both extreme ends of the beauty spectrum. The media here markets the image that women need to be super thin in order to be attractive & guys need to be very muscular in order to be attractive. There's LOTS of advertisements for things related to weight loss & increasing physical fitness. There's also LOTS of ads marketing other aspects of beauty standards like male-pattern baldness treatment, facial & body hair removal products, acne treatment, botox injections, anti-wrinkle cream, ect ect. Lots of female models & celebrities are very thin. In Hollywood & the fashion industry the thinner an actress or model is, the more jobs she can get. Also lots of female celebrities have breast implants. The beauty standards being marketed are very superficial & unnatural & potentially unhealthy for lots of people. They cause lots of people, especially women to feel self-conscious & insecure. However there are also LOTS of ads for things related to unhealthy food like fast food, junk food, pizza, & sugary snacks. Plenty of people feel they could never live up to the beauty standards that the media markets & they become very discouraged & give up trying. They see & hear the various ads for unhealthy food & they become an emotional eater which is a vicious cycle. They eat to feel better about feeling unattractive & they gain weight & eat even more because they feel even worse about themselves.

The question isn't directed at me but I noticed that beauty standards seem to be declining too. A lot of unhealthy women seem to be advocated by the media and public in general as the new norm.

Strangely it's only women. This is not happening at all with men.

I have dated and hooked up with both thin women and BBW and I have to say that BBW is better in the sense that they are better in bed usually and usually more sexually passionate in my experience. I asked a guy friend this and he also confirmed this to be his experience as well.

But he says that even though that's the case, he still prefers a thin woman, even if that means less sexual passion. But why?

Why would a lot of guys prefer to have sex with a thin woman, if that means they are going to most likely be a brick wall in bed? I don't understand this concept.

That's true, I don't see any plus sized male models.

I see none whatsoever. Google image "fat acceptance" and the only results you'll get are of overweight females.

The men appear to either not care as much about their weight or are more prone to admit they have a problem that they need to address.

Men get judged on their looks less severely. Men don't get treated as though they lack value as human beings for carrying some extra weight.

Do guys really like really thin women though? It feels like being with a boney skeleton in bed when it comes to these thin women that the media likes. Do guys really like that feeling?

I think a thin woman could potentionally be a lot better in bed for me but I am very out of shape & am very physically weak & I have a very small...um yeah.

What I've noticed.

Overweight women get way more attention for their body. There is a body positivity movement, and there are guys who like plus-size women. But there are also a lot more mean comments, bullying, negative attention, and some creepy fetishists. Both positive and negative attention.

Overweight men are just invisible. They're not as often criticized for their body. But very rarely do they get positive attention either.

How often do men get talked about only for their physical attractiveness? How often do people speak of them like they lack value as human beings based on their physical appearance? :?
Come on now... :roll:

I bet some women's magazines objectify men, not as often as women. but women do occasionally talk about the 'hunk 'male, get giddy over the athletic sports star, or handsome rock star. It's more subtle with woman. But i suspect they have those kinda thoughts, i just think they less inclined to vocalize them as loudly as men. First impression are solely based on physical appearance, in both genders. That's right.
