| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 5/17/2008 9:38:45 PM | I love big men :) I'm about 5'4" and I love to look up at my man. There's something about a big man that gives you that secure feeling. Love my teddy bears  | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 5/17/2008 10:19:43 PM | as long as one carries themself well and exudes confidence it doesn't matter your size.
i've always said, just because i'm fat doesn't mean i have to be unkept and ugly!
just my opinion | |
|
| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 5/17/2008 10:58:46 PM | | I certainly prefer tall men. Not a big fan of skinny guys, never dated someone very big,muscular to a little extra is my type usually but I'm not opposed to someone large. | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 5/18/2008 3:45:09 PM | | I'm 5'2" and somewhere between curvy and bbw and definitely prefer big, tall men. (over 6'2" and over 250 lbs). As for the big, scary, intimidating biker look - even better! And bonus points for a man who can literally sweep me off my feet. There's a certain sense of protection, safety, security, etc. I've dated shorter thin guys before and I always felt like I would break them LOL | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 6:44:35 AM | I happen to prefer a BHM, especially if he has a big belly too! A man with a healthy appetite can be very sexy and makes me feel the same:) I like bellies on men that are jiggly and soft on the underside and round like a beach ball. My first thought is "I want to feel what his belly is like to touch".
Hope this helps answer the question. | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 6:56:09 AM | I think OP was trying to parallel BBW for men... BHM. This doesn't mean big, powerfully built, in shape guys. It means overweight men. It seems a few understood this. Others just went off on their own little trip.  | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 8:00:47 AM | | Well, this is an interesting thread just in terms of showing gender differences. Any BBW thread will have a good proportion of men making derogatory comments about big women. Here, the only women that piped up were women who wanted to say that they liked big men. Those women that didn't have something nice to say just didn't say anything (there is a negative comment about being in poor health, and it was from a man). Sometimes I think dating would be so much easier for me if I was a lesbian...(not because of my size, but just in terms of finding someone with the same sort of manners, niceness and empathy that I have, and not having to wading through as many assholes). | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 8:24:59 AM | Well this, by far, is not the first "Big Guy" thread on the forums. Some of the others have had the so-called "fat bashers" on them. However, if we did a comparison, I think that we would a 4 to 1 ratio of BBW threads to BHM threads and the BBW threads tend to grow in size a lot faster than BHM threads.
I'm sure that a lot of people think that guys have a BBW fetish, and some probably do. Though, by and large, I think that guys are more accepting of a "big girl", than women are of "big guys". It's almost as though the "visual creature" thing is switching genders.
I can't help but wonder if someday it will become "fashionable" for a woman to be with a big guy. However, I think it would quite amusing if a woman had a "fat guy" fetish! | |

Some do, but diapers are also involved.  | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 2:35:18 PM | Being a BBW, I love the big guys... I won't date anyone shorter that 5'10 and my preferred weight for a guys is 200-275 lbs. Although, I am not attracted to pear shaped men. I like them very broad in the shoulders, like pro-football player. I wouldn't be discourage if someone was under 200 lbs, but anything under 180 is just too skinny. Always will be loving and living large!  | |

Hey, just look at Kevin Smith and his wife Jennifer Schwalbach. She's a delicate waifish, goreous model type and he's, well, Silent Bob. They're madly in love.
I prefer bigger guys myself. Not into skinny guys. Not that there aren't some very attractive thin men out there, but I prefer guys with a high "cuddle factor." Also, I'm a big girl with long legs. I gotta have SOMETHING to wrap them around.

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 3:30:11 PM | I honestly think big guys face less of a prejudice towards their size than women do. I mean, being large and strong are definite masculine traits... that are often not as appealing on women (to some people). I could and have appreciated and dated teddy-bear type men. I do like a man to be reasonably fit though, slim or fluffy. Someone who can keep up with me on a hike or a long day of walking around downtown, people watching and shopping. | |
|
| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 3:54:56 PM | | Oh for heaven's sake. There are women that like fat men just like there are men that like fat women. There just aren't as many as there are for skinny and normal people. If being fat is your ONLY bad characteristic, you'll have a far easier time attracting someone than if you have additional problems. Weigh it out (pun intended). | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 3:59:47 PM | | I like BHM if they are like me, ok with who they are and how they look, and take pride in their appearance. Regardless of size, I don't want to be with anyone who doesn't take a bit of time to make sure they are clean, well presented. Doesn't take too much time, just requires a bit of effort. | |
|
| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 4:47:26 PM | Im a BAM(big athletic man) (6'4", 225 lbs) and I have only been with girls smaller than me. Then again, you dont really see many 6-foot plus girls... Well, not around here anyway... | |
|
| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 5:04:17 PM | | I personally like bigger men. Right around 6’ 4” and 300 lbs is pretty sweet. But I find all sizes attractive. That is just one thing out of a multitude of things that I find attractive. A love of video games and fantasy fiction is big on my list. Not looking like a dear caught in the headlights if I mention leaking gravity helps too. I just love dark hair, short, or bald. And that sexy beard that crawls right around the jaw line. Alright, I got to stop or I am going to start drooling. | |

| Feelings of Big Handsome Men Posted: 9/15/2008 6:20:07 PM | | Personally I prefer waif-ish type men. I am just not attracted to a large guy but easily half my women friends like a meatier man. To me, curves are for women not for men. Either way, you gotta rock what you got and make the most of it. | |
