| He asked What do you weigh? What would you say?
Posted: 10/4/2008 11:06:39 AM | As far as internet dating and making plans to meet someone I think it is fair to know what to expect. I'm not attracted to over-weight people physically. I think it is ironic that the ones with the few (and more) extra pounds call this shallow. If I want to run and chase two miles up and down the beach a man that weighs 3x’s what I do most likely isn’t going to be interested or able to keep up even if he was interested. It is a life-style difference.
Now if someone were to ask you if you could run two miles would you be just as offended?
The only way to not be offended by being asked your weight or body size is to post realistic recent pictures. That would save all the grief of the other person asking what you really look like. | |

"You share with me your cup size and I'll share with you mine".
Since weight seems to be so important to many men/women, I saved them the trouble of asking and just added that information in my profile.
I tell them what size my pants are and let them figure out the weight themselves. | |

My weight sounds like alot - but in person when seen, no one believes that I weigh what I do - nor for that matter that I weighed what I did in the photo that I have on my profile on here - more than I do now. | |

Posted: 10/9/2008 11:05:29 AM | I would not only tell him what I weighed, I would tell him my clothing size...but then he would be able to see what I look like from my pictures.
Then, I would ask him how much he weighed..turn abouts if fair play.
I see no problem with wanting a certain body size. Better to know BEFORE you meet than after that he doesn't want a large lady, or a small one.
While size should not matter, to many it does. Is it shallow? Probably. | |

Posted: 10/20/2008 4:57:14 PM | My problem is I don't just get the "how much do you weigh" question, I also get the "how big is your chest" question, and to me there are three things questions involving numbers that you never ask a woman:
1. How much do you weight?
2. How big is your chest?
3. How many partners have you had?
Also I hear a lot of women that have problems with guys asking them their age but me personally its not a big deal. I know I am in my mid20s and look like I am a lot younger and that I am okay with!
This is JMO of course!

Posted: 10/23/2008 11:55:06 AM | No one asks what I weigh... If they did I would think they were rude and simply ask about the length and girth of their member. A personal question for a personal question. I do have a full length pic up so maybe thats why I'm never asked?
I grew up thinking you didn't ask about a woman's age or weight. I don't mind sharing my age since I look younger but honestly I don't even know what I weigh anymore.... I got tired of obsessing about my weight and it was always a constant battle... My BMI always said I was overweight, not taking into account that muscle weighs more than fat. Now I eat healthy and I exercize (sp?) regularly, and fit into all of my clothes the same as I always have.
Isn't that really all its all about? Being in good physical shape, feeling good about yourself and to heck with the negative nellies. | |

Posted: 10/27/2008 7:30:49 PM | I agree it's not really very polite, I've never done it personally.....but honestly, some people use old pictures, or just head shots. Hell, sometimes the pictures people post are downright misleading. Once you meet someone in person, you're not going to be able to hide whatever you're trying to hide....
I think people should be honest and upfront about stuff like that, but if you're not comfortable with it, just move on. No need to ask his "cup" size...seriously now, how is that the same as asking someone's weight? Now if he asks for your bra size....let him have it.  | |

Posted: 10/27/2008 8:48:25 PM | I put it right in my profile along with how tall I am.. lol..
from the get go.. I keep adding stuff to my profile
and redoing the settings as I get use to this site.
any questions go ahead and ask I don't bite, well not much anyway.. lol..
things are different then they were say 10 yrs ago or even 5 years ago.
And one of the things my brothers were taught was not to ask a lady her age, or her weight .. now a days its all the rage.. with the internet dating thing.. and besides we all know that
the camera lies and adds extras to our figures.. 
we all want to put our best side forward so to speak..
hmmm should put up the behind shot of me.. anyways.. I digress.
If a gentleman/ Lady as a personal question you DO have the right to respond in like.
or do not respond at all.. | |

Posted: 11/2/2008 9:48:49 AM | Just tell the truth, so when meeting in person , there will be no surprises and
expectation. Not only that if you told him your weight and he thinks you are overweight , why even meet dont waste your time, it just make no sense to me to hide how much one weighs, it will come out when meet in person anyway. If he still want to meet you after you told him your weight then maybe he is a keeper. Lucilou   | |

Posted: 11/6/2008 8:48:02 AM | I have dated woman who weigh a little and woman who weigh a little more and some in between. I have found that it's not what they weigh but who they are. I'll take a wholesome loving woman with a few pounds on her who knows how to love and give love over a hot narrow minded skinny girl anyday of the week and visa versa...

Posted: 11/18/2008 2:50:28 PM | | I am overweight and I state it in my profile, I see no reason not to. What do you gain by hiding it? If someone ask me I will tell them, but I will also tell them I know it is unhealthy and that I am working on loosing, (so far I have lost 60 lbs). I don't think anyone should be offended by age or weight, but if you are asked and you don't want to say just state that you do not feel comfortable in saying...most people will understand. | |

Posted: 12/29/2008 5:57:32 PM | | Several years ago I had a man ask me my weight. I didn't think it was appropriate for him to ask me that so I told him I wasn't going to tell him. Of course, he assumed I was overweight. At the time, I wasn't. He was very persistent and kept asking me over and over. Finally, I turned things around on him. I asked him, "How long is your penis?" I got no response, he disappeared and I never heard from him again!! There are just some things that people don't won't other people to know!!! | |

Posted: 12/29/2008 8:34:09 PM | Nobody has ever asked what I weigh but I will say I weighed 97 pounds 28 years ago at age 22. After the first child was born I went back down to 101 I was 23, after the second child was born I went down to 115 and I was 26. Now I have more curves and guys like that. But hey I'm 50.  | |
