you realise you're asking for a woman with fashion model proportions right ?

I'm 5ft 9 and the smallest I've ever been able to get is to 122. I think I look better a little heavier though.

I do indeed understand that. I didn't mean I considered that chunky at all - it's quite slender. FWIW, my current GF is heavier and quite a bit shorter than that; I just meant those are the proportions I consider ideal.

Really ? a guy I know was telling me that a man usually gives a woman demerits for every inch taller than 5ft 4 that she is.

i like girls with meat on them. models are hot, but thin girls don't hug nearly as well as normal girls do.

obese girls, no.

for people that say looks don't matter, i think that's BS.

no matter what, looks DO matter.

I like my women with a little meat on their bones. Too much is scary though.:Q

Some morons here said Britney Spears was fat, when seeing a pic from the beach, posted a few days ago. I never thought I'd defend Britney Spears, but if that girl is fat, you need help, have unrealistic expectations... or have an unhealthy fixation for Asian models.

Yeah.

If she's completely sedentary and avoids outdoor physical activity (regardless of her weight) then I'm not interested. Otherwise I consider weight to be a continuum where mindset and outlook matter far more than poundage.

'Bout sums it up. :) I've dated curvy asian, skinny hispanic, skinny white, and curvy white. All were fun. :)

You just claimed that you didn't date or care. Shut up.

2" over 5'4" and they're taller than me, and Vikings don't tolerate that kind of stuff, so... yeah.

Anyway, it's not shallow to avoid fat women. It's not simply an aesthetic issue. Being fat reflects poorly on your character, as someone who is abusing their body and not taking the opportunity that almost everyone has to do something about it.

That sounds like short-guy logic. I'm 6'4", and though I don't have a "type," I'll always prefer taller women, other things being equal. My current GF is only 5'5", though.

Mopad? What's that? A big ole Kotex? Or do you mean a moped?

I always dated short guys because tall ones didn't want anything to do with me, the tall guys all wanted the 5 ft tall petite women .

To this day I feel very uncomfortable next to petite women, it's like they're small,curvy
and ultra feminine and I'm just a big gawky, horse's ass

She'd lose weight over time, due to malnutrition.

Look around you sometime, you'll be amazed at all the big guys with really petite women.

and Yes Red is taller than me and probably only the 2nd or third guy I've dated that is.
He's also quite buff and I sure as hell don't miss dealing with napolean complex issues in my daily life.Lol,most short men think they've got to constantly prove how tough they. are

Yeah, I guess that does happen from time to time. Actually I guess I'm kinda like that. Here I am with my GF (the blonde), on the night we met at a friend's wedding (she was a bridesmaid).

I have.

From experience I have found that if i am looking for a relationship that lasts longer than two to three months of sex looks are not the most important thing to consider in a woman.

im young and shallow too so HELL NO i wouldnt. maybe as i get older my standards will lower, but being shallow, i dont think they will. or maybe if i got fat... but then again that would be the same as my standards lowering.

Hehe! That's sort of the same thing that happend to me! I was about 20 pounds over weight, when my hubby and I started dating. I joined a gym, lost it and then some...now we're married with two boys!

Of course being that I've had my 2nd baby only 5 months ago, I'm back in the gym battling to lose that weight again! It'll go though, I'm motivated cause we're done having kids! My body is officially mine again!

I wouldn't date a girl that I'm not physically attracted to, so that would leave out the "morbidly obese" category. Other than that, it really depends on the person.
