| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 5/28/2009 12:28:06 AM | | I find this very interesting but I doubt that I qualify as one of those big guys though I consider myself overweight right now - as compared with what I weighed when I was younger. My pics are only a couple of weeks old. But if you are talking shape, as in stamina and not shape as in muscle bound, I can easily pick things up like refrigerators and move them around. Ride a mountain bike 5 or 10 miles every night. I still climb 50 foot trees by the branches to trim them. I've fallen out of trees, off of roofs and was recently even run over by a cell phone user in a car - I walked away after a few anxious moments - and yet have never spent a day in a hospital. The 20 or so "fat pounds" I consider myself being overweight are of course from good food - vegetables, fruits, fruit juice and cheese. I eat little meat and drink no booze. Still I'd prefer to be skinny as in my college days even if meant not qualifying for the teddy bear list. LOL | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 5/28/2009 9:58:39 PM | | If many women feel this way where are they all? I too am a bigger guy who has a great personality and a lot going for myself. I own my own home, have two wonderful twin teenage daughters and a great job. I treat woemn well but never seem to get any responses. Yet it seems as though since I am not a 100 and nothing pounds that women just pass me by. What gives. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 5/28/2009 10:12:36 PM | | I'm not a "big" girl, so I'd expect the guy I date to not be a big man..but I don't mind a bit of a belly..I mean, no one is perfect these days..but no..not big guys for me. I'm 120, and 5'2"....so I mean..I don't ask for what I can't give. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 5/30/2009 11:11:23 PM | | Well...Personally I have never had the opportunity to date a heavy man. I wouldn't mind it at all, if the chemistry was there. I've only ever been with thin or "fit" men, and I wouldn't mind a guy outweighing me for a change. lol. | |

| I equate it to how most guys view, plus size wo Posted: 5/30/2009 11:49:22 PM | I think It depends on how you carry yourself. Im stocky and have been since i was in my early 20s. I have a muscular build,with thick legs,and big shoulders....but i have a tummy too. Women dont seem to mind.
Women who are curvy..meaning "overweight",not morbidly obese, but have round hips and a full figure are very attractive (at least to me)...But a women with a beer belly and no hips isnt. I think it is the same for men. If you have wimpy arms and toothpick legs,with a beachball poking out from under your wife beater, your not gonna get much attention...well, at least not the kind your looking for. | |

| I equate it to how most guys view, plus size wo Posted: 5/31/2009 4:48:06 PM | I am the same way a stocky guy with a bit of a tummy as you put it but I also know how to treat a lady with respect. It just seems that women out there jusge to many men by their looksand then wonder why they are back on the dating sites 3-6 months later. C'Mon ladies if you want guys who are going to want to be with you for you and not to just add another notch on their belt you might want to lower the expectations a tad and step out of the perverbial comfort zone.
All in all I agree with seandavies1gmail. Good luck to all and if any ladies out there are looking to be treated properly step out of the comfort zone and send a message or two to guys you wouldn't normally talk to who knows you might find yur prince charming. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 6/2/2009 2:16:23 PM | | What most women fail to realize is if a guy who is 40 has a buff body and takes care of himself can ALWAYS do better than a 40 year old woman. Look at most the pics of women at or over 30 and you have to wonder just exactly what went wrong???? they have let themselves go and look ten years older than they are. Even the athletic ones are just a little too hell bent on fitness to be normal, i mean who wants to eat bran and alfalfa sprouts everyday? i'll keep my gut( could you please pass the jelly!! ) and she can feel secure that no other woman will want me and we'll live happily ever after........................................ | |

I dig fit guys because they rock my world whereas an unfit guy reminds me of a baby wale and do crap in the bedroom. Flexibility is great for an enjoyable sex life. So many positions, so little time
GQSunset my bf isn't even 40 yet...yeah, some of us over 40 year old women live healthy lifestyles and can still have fabulous men as boy friends, lovers, and more. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 6/4/2009 10:02:57 AM | | Well sadly this is true women are very critical of overweight guys. I was very overweight a few years ago, I weighed over 330lbs and am 6'3. Well for about 2 years now, I have watched my diet and exercised religiously and am now 210 lbs with very low bodyfat. What I've noticed is there is a huge amount of difference in the attention I receive from females. When I was heavier I almost always had a girlfriend but very, very rarely got hit on. Now, I get hit on alot, especially by ladies in their 30's. I receive quite a few more emails on here than I think I would have 2 years ago. The funny thing is my taste really haven't changed, I still LOVE chubby chicks !!( I said chubby not obese, there is a difference). | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 6/4/2009 5:15:37 PM | I have always been big...not morbidly obese, but like, they wouldn't let me play pee-wee football, they were afraid I was going to hurt the other kids. I played soccer, and baseball...and was always the biggest kid on the team...I couldn't run as fast, but I could sure hit the snot out of the ball.
I marched a 75 lb. bass drum my last two years in highschool (fractured ankle stopped my football days) 5+ mile parades, and the wuzzy flute players were whining and crying...I was ready for more. I am 5'9" and graduated highschool in 92 at 306, but I didn't look like the other kids who were the same weight...I am densely packed, big boned, can put on muscle quickly, but I also put on fat easily...I obviously look like a big guy, but people tend to assume my weight is 30-40 pounds less than I actually am.
Recently, I started back at the gym, and if I focused, I could cut down to 8-12% body fat in 4-6 months...but that isn't my goal. My goal is to get fit again...I am not on a diet, as I believe that diets don't work. I have changed my eating habits and am much more critical of what I put in my body.
I will always be a big guy, genetics don't lie. If a woman doesn't like me because of that, well its her loss, as I am much more than my weight. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 6/4/2009 6:12:10 PM | The irony at least in my case is that there was a time when i thought weight made a difference in terms of my happiness, so i lost a ton of weight and for over 2 years got hit on literally everywhere i went wether it was dinner movies etc and it never mattered that i was on a date or with female friends. What did i learn? i was much happier being heavier because all the superficial women were no longer hitting on me. I agree that being healthy and nimble can have it's merits in the bedroom but i have found that it's better to know what you are doing than how skinny you are doing it !!! I don't judge anyone for their personal preferences because sex and love are all chemistry based on physical attraction. My comments are based purely on my own experiences and subjective outlook on my perception of what is attractive to me. I've been with skinny women younger women fat women and older women and every combo there in, the most beautiful women had guts that rivaled mine, that is because despite their physical flaws they offered a lot in a relationship that made them beautiful to me. | |

So let me get this right - thin healthy women repulse you and you being thinner and healthier repulses you.
WHY ARE YOU BOTHERING??? | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 6/10/2009 7:55:31 PM | | Funny.. My long-term ex was super fit. A pinup boy for what women want physically, yet he was the laziest person you can imagine outside the gym. he put me off men who look "suspiciously" fit for good. Now, I prefer to go by compatibility. I will prefer someone active to keep us with me, but no longer care what body shape he has as long as he is not obese. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 6/10/2009 8:28:56 PM | | Cant answer your question OP- my opinion on the following of BBW is that those men cant get a decent looking woman. I think decent looking women compete for the same men- So some men end up being with more than one woman, while the losers are begging at the feet of BBW. My advice is to get in shape OP, you can't fix ugly, but you can improve your chances- but your attitude and the way you present yourself needs to improve also. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 6/11/2009 8:33:02 AM | teddy bears, yes. Seriously overweight, no. This is strictly from a physical/flexibility perspective though. The last two men I 'dated' were borderline obese and the sex was incredibly painful. I have a bad hip and it doesn't like to bend sometimes. So thinner guys are more comfortable physically for me.
I prefer a man with meat to cuddle though. Which is why I prefer largeish men, but not huge. | |

| My therory on big guys(no not talking about his*****) Posted: 7/7/2009 10:31:17 PM | Proud Canadian here .. all I have to say about this whole thing is that really when you think about it ... body type is just a carcass, has no significance or bearing whatsoever on what the man himself is going to be like, and what he is going to be like in relation to me.
I like a good man who treats me well.
Period.
If he is in a toothpick type carcass or a big bulky one - makes no difference, as long as he cares about me and himself enough to want to stick around (health wise I mean) for a while we are good.
(sidenote - I prefer big bulky usually - just my previous taste is all) | |
