This guys is obviously a freaking D!CK!!!!!! You look fine and I would certainly consider you to be of average size just like the rest of the posters in this thread. Do not take this guys ignorant comment to heart. He's just a low life SOB. Send him the link to this post so he can see what we all think of him. I also think (if you still have the email), to send it and report him to the moderators of this site. Unfortunately it won't stop from just reopening another account. Keep your chin up, he's not worth it.

I don't think you're huge. I'd say that given you are 5'3" you probably weigh about 170 pounds from the picture. Of course that could be the results of distortion in the picture. Sometimes if you crop the picture wrong, POF changes the way you look.

Since I don't understand women's sizes, I wish the profiles included weight. Perhaps if you included your weight in your profile. (I think I do.)

Candi,

This guy was probably just comparing you to his p***s and was feeling inadaquate.

He's an idiot. and as many hers have said just mean. You should probably report him and send a copy of his mesasage to the moderator.

It's wrong for someone to send insulting e-mails like this. The body type qualifiers on this site are inaccurate very often, and leave lots open to interpretation. To send rude e-mails like this to someone posting pictures is totally unnecessary from a "hmm let's see who I want to contact" stance. You could report the dolt, but I doubt it would do any good, there really aren't any moderators on this site, your report would undoubtedly fall on deaf ears.

Don't let wick pr1cks like that spoil your day. Hey, I looked at your pics and wondered why I ever left New Egland in the first place. You look great, he's an idiot, and that's all there is to it!

Sounds like that guy has a huge boulder on his shoulders. Obviously, his life is so pathetic and unsatifying, that the only way he can make himself feel better, is to make someone else feel bad.

You are a beautiful woman and should be proud of who you are. Don't ever let anyone else's opinion trump yours.

I had some photos of me including a full body picture, however, perhaps the photo was too flattering (I am wearing a dress). About 3 days after the date, I received a scathing email blasting me for not emailing him thanking him for the date (even though I told him I was going to be busy the next couple days) and then called me obese! He also chewed me out for not offering to pay my portion of the meal (we met for drinks, but then he said he was hungry and offered dinner, so I actually thought the date was going well).
Well, I sent him an email back calling him on his rudeness, explained the definition of "obese", reminded him I did not even have time to check my emails let along respond to him before he did and actually did apologize for not offering to pay dinner but did tell him that if he expects a gal to offer to pay half (when he is doing the inviting, then maybe he should spell that out up front). I don't have a lot of money, so a girlfriend and I often go dutch, but if I am doing the inviting, I always mention whether it is my treat or if she can pay her way.
Even though I was offended, yes, it did still hurt. I do know my body type is not to everyone's liking but I also don't seem to have too much trouble getting a date.

However, I did end up getting another full length picture of me posted in jeans and purposely not as flattering to show my true figure. So...no false advertising....now if we can only find a way to weed out the jerks.

To the Jerks who do this - You don't need to tell us we are overweight. We have a mirror, we usually already know!!!

I actually did have someone tell me I was thin but then he had previously been very heavy and had apparently lost a lot of weight so he obviously had a different conception of weight (and probably some issues of his own).

So weight and beauty are definitely in the eye of the beholder.

saying that america is overweight in general means americans are a few lbs over. That still makes her a "few lbs over".


The average American or Canadian is already around 20 pounds overweight so therefore average is already overweight.


Average should be a good healthy weight. Not thin or overweight.



Maybe it should mean that , but average is what the majority of people are and the majority of people are overweight.

Sweetie you are no bigger than me. I'm guessing you're about a size 14-16.

I would take the 2nd photo in your photo shots out. It's too close and doesn't show your body properly and it makes you look bigger than you probably are.

You are a very attractive sexy female and I know there are a lot of guys out there who would so happy to date someone like you. Don't worry about jerks on here. I once had a 25 year old guy call me a "fat whore" because I wouldn't sleep with him. It shook me up for a couple of days..............I couldn't believe it.

Anyway just remember when you post photos on a website you will have all sorts looking at it not just the nice guys.

okay you are not huge.
He is an A$$hole and showed it.
Did you contact that A$$ or did he just send that out of the blue?
Not that it makes a difference, at least you have a pic, so he could decide if he wanted to chat with you.

B.S. People who think like you are why everyone screams that people lie about their body type type on here. Average is not meant to mean overweight on here for body type. If your overweight you should be choosing a few lbs over at least. Get real and be honest.

The guy that said this to her was an azz. But she isnt average body type by any stretch of the imagination. Quit making excuses. He was at fault and so was she on her body type on her profile.

JUST BE HONEST. I am skinny. Many do NOT want a skinny guy. So I feel her pain. I put a full length photo and my real height and weight on my profile.

I applaud her for really putting a full length photo on here! GOOD for her. I notice you dont btw...

But her size was never meant to mean average on this site. I think we need a choice between "a few lbs over" and BBW. I think "a few" is 10 to 15 lbs.... But by your thought process of her weight being "average" WTF is between her and "thin" ????

Uhhhhhh well maybe the real "average" perhaps???

Sorry we will agree to disagree.

sometimes you wish you could post those idiots emails for everyone to see them, especially when they are being nasty.
As to the 25 year old I hope you told his immature ass off Spicy.

sheila: I think in your pics you look thinner then the OP who lists herself as average while you list yourself as BBW.

Maybe that caused this misunderstanding with the azzhole partly?

Hmmm, Cowboy !! One's 5'10" and one's 5'3"; There in lies the diff. Between
BBW and SBW, When one's short , and a bit overweight, they don't want to list them
self as Big Beautiful Woman. Not Skinny, Not Huge, sooo thinking one's average.
Everyone on here is just fine, except for the jackass that responded to her in the
way that he did. Of course, he must be just perfect, so indeed has the right to look down on others ? (hmm) "Pobody's Nerfect"

I usto have lots of photos up and anyone who posted in the forums regularly would remember. As for why I don't know well if you had taken a second to read my profile you would see why I don't have a photo up anymore.


The average person is already overweight. If you don't believe me then check it out. What is average is what the majority of people are. Now calm down before your blood vessels pop in your head.

Average is a relative term, everyone has their own opinion. I know it's hard not to feel a little devalued after hearing a comment like that, but I want you to remember this. Anyone who feels compelled to go out of their way to insult a total stranger is clearly struggling with feelings of inadequacy regarding their own self worth. (That's why they try to project their feelings of inferiority onto someone else.) This comment had nothing to do with how you look, just some damaged soul looking to ease their own pain. He is looking at things through a deeply flawed perception, therefore even if this was his opinion, it has no value.
I, on the other hand, am a reasonably sane and rational individual, with impeccable taste, and I think you're lovely. Blow yourself a kiss in the mirror and don't give the comment another thought.

First off... you are a very cute girl. However I would not categorize you as "average" either. I would say "a few extra" if pressed for an opinion. I would never just e-mail somebody and be rude about it.

You are curvy and thick... it's great to me. You look fine. In fairness though, women and guys too have to be a little more accurate when describing themselves.

don't sweat it. Just move on and don't let him bother you. He's a rude jerk.

Honey, you are NOT huge. Maybe a tiny bit over average, but not much. Now, *I* am huge. But I do put BBW/Big & Tall in my profile.

I had a guy initiate an IM with me here the other day. He says "Can I ask you a question?"

Note to self: When someone you don't know asks you that question, say NO.

He went on to ask if I'm so active (swordfighting, taiko drumming, biking, swimming, etc), why am I so fat? And when I gave him an honest answer, he basically said I was lying, because I didn't tell him "Oh, because I eat like a pig." Because I don't, I eat way less than most of my 'thin' friends do.

Note to self: Rude people don't deserve an answer.

OP - Why should you care what he thinks?
A girlfriend sent me this New Year's resolution........
"My new rule is to stick with the mentality of, He's not the right guy for me, rather than, Why doesn't he like me? What's wrong with me?"
I'm amazed at the intelligent, healthy women who are self loathing because some idiot guy doesn't know how to either move on or keep his mouth shut. The guy that said that wants a small skinny woman so his penis won't look so small in comparision. You can be pretty sure he doesn't look exactly like Michelangelo's David when he takes his clothes off.
OP - Are you happy? Are you healthy? Then you are fine the way you are.

Candi: Im sorry this jerk ruined your day...But pleeze, his opinion shouldn't matter to you....Its what you think when you look in the mirror that counts. You are a beautiful young lady and you should accept that.... If you feel that your body type is "average", thats what counts. Now just go to the mirror and repeat "I am beautiful, I am beautiful.....". You need to know that once you accept yourself, other peoples opinions cant hurt you.

Like most said, your a very attractive girl but I don't think average is the right description because there is also a choice of a few extra pounds which I think fits better. As for the guy, probably has a pencil d***.
