Skinny women, do you not see...?

Question

How awful you look? women should ahve curves, I dont get why women diet and exercise to be stick thin, it looks unattractive and skinny women usually have small or no b***s, why on earth would a man find a body that looks like small childs attractive.

so if your dieting, don't go to far as men ( non g*y ones) usually find it a turn off.

Answer 1

Some of the pressures of being skinny, being a woman, is the images of famous women that you see all over TV and in magazines. Many women think they have to be as skinny as the stars.  

Answer 2

i agree. im naturally really thin and i hate it :| i find it really hard to put on weight. haha I also agree with lucy, that made me laugh ;)

Answer 3

i totally agree with your question i thought i was the only one that felt that way

Answer 4

heyy i dont want to be stick thin. ill never achivee that but i do want a better looking tummy.

Answer 5

Hello, I wanted to answer your question - I am in recovery from anorexia nervosa, and unfortunately, the answer is no, many women do not realise exactly how they look. Anorexia is an illness which effects perception - therefor if someone is deeply entrenched in the illness, they cannot see themselves as others do.

It is difficult to explain, because it defies all logic and rational sense - someone is actually very underweight but "sees" fat and imperfections, I "felt" enormous! Because of the nature of the illness, people try to help and interfere, making the sufferer feel paranoid and extremely confused. If I saw photographs of myself, i did not think they were of me - after all, I was "huge" in my own eyes.

I am pleased to say that I have now gained insight into my condition - I CAN SEE myself as others do, and it is a blessing, I believe it has saved my life. I am still "in recovery" as I have much weight to gain, but I can see my arms and actually WANT to gain weight slowly to build up and accept my new shape.

I know the illness doesnt make sense, I only know because i have lived through it. I dont know how I gained insight - simply over time, but I hope other anorexia sufferers find this as it is the key to discovering the truth about who they are.

I understand and appreciate you asking, as it doesnt make logical sense, but these women are liekly to have distorted images of themselves. x*x

Answer 6

Idiot.

Answer 7

Eating disorders are mental illnesses, the symptoms of which involve both body image distortion (they do not see themselves as fat) and lack of (perceived) control over caloric intake. The addictive potential of both bulimic and anorexic behaviors should not be underestimated.

Mental illnesses (including eating disorders) are much more complex and difficult to treat than the general public comprehends.

Answer 8

I can agree to disagree.

I feel like curves are more attractive as well.

I was blessed to have curves.

But not every woman is skinny by choice.

Some cannot help but be super skinny.

Some choose to be super skinny.

Some desire to be that way so they diet until they reach the point that makes them happy.

Some people even have eating disorders and that is a mental disorder, not a lifestyle.

So for you to post something of this nature is a tad harsh, especially when you do not know the situation.

Point is everyone has different preferences. Some men like skinny women, some like women with curves, and some like women who have more than plenty meat on their bones. So maybe you should think before you post things like this..

Answer 9

If you are referring to people who suffer anorexia and bulimia, then i don't think that statements fair. You can't choose whether or not you have a mental illness. In their mind's seeing bones is perfection no matter what guys think.

If you aren't referring to them i sort of see your point. Although not all women diet so they look more attractive to men, most of them want to feel more confident in themselves.  

Answer 10

I'm naturally thin and find it hard to put on weight.  I am a sporty build like the Character Sarah Conner in Terminator 2 and I like it.

Don't be so hard on thin people dude not all of us count calories and weigh ourselves every 5 mins.

Answer 11

Some of us don't "diet" to look skinny. Some of us, like me, are just naturally skinny and it's very hard for us to gain weight belive it or not.

So go suck somethin

Answer 12

I agree, women look good when they have curves and a toned body,  I don't think many men find stick insects attractive,  Some women such as tall models with superb bibe structure look good skinny, but they are the exception.  I am trying to loose weight and tone up a bit, but NOT to lose my curves, id pick being a healthy weight and looking good, to being scrawny any day.

Answer 13

Well men should have tight butts & abs and have perfect hygiene.  

Answer 14

Men rarely know what they like!

If you're overweight, men say you're too fat.

If you're thin, men say you're too bony.

If you're of ideal weight, men say you're a$s isn't tight enough or your stomach isn't flat enough.

If you're a$s and stomach is tight then you're too thin....

....and on and on and on....

Answer 15

um may b a pedophile will lol

no... some men find skinny girls attractive? even though generally curvy women r much hotter and most people would agree.  

Answer 16

You should go find something to do.

If we want to be skinny it's our decision.

What makes you think it has anything to do with men?

What arrogance.....

Answer 17

woman like clothes, looking good and fashion

in the fashion industry the 1s that model the clothes are unbearably thin, so eventually woman r thinking...what do i have to do to look that good in clothes?

some woman dont like curves

i no when i gain weight my but gets rly nice and round...not wide...men love it.....but me personally i dont like it...when some others onli dream of having my body(being slim with nice ***).....it all depends on the person.....some woman are naturally weirdly thin thow....most arent

hope i helped:)

Answer 18

In reality, a lot of men have NO IDEA what kind of woman they really like, because they are brainwashed by the same stereotypes that influence the women you mention.

(It's a complicated issue for both sexes.)

Men often learn to be attracted to a particular 'type' of woman, because of a picture or person they saw while growing up. That can cause a lifelong problem, because they will always be selective when they show interest in a woman.

A lot of guys will focus on the 'most attractive' woman in a group, because they feel that their social status will suffer if their friends see them approaching anybody else. And because of this self-conscious attitude, their idea of 'attractiveness' will also be shaped by the examples shown in the media.

Male self-image is affected in the same way. Plenty of guys think that they become more attractive by being tanned, or toned, or long 'n' lean, or muscular, or buying expensive clothes & fast cars. In reality, each of those choices will make them attractive to women with a particular attitude, and less attractive to others.

Insecure men (who are most easily influenced by 'lad' and 'lifestyle' magazines) often prefer 'impressionable' women, and these women are the same ones who can be 'led' most easily by advertising and media images.

These images are often heavily edited, and so are the models used to make them. So they teach men to prefer artificial-looking women (who can be thin AND have big b*****s that somehow don't 'sag'), and encourage more women to get surgery and cosmetic beauty products too, in order to become more like these images.

Answer 19

Yet, society tells women they need to be thin to be pretty. Look at the models. I'm as tall as Tyra Banks, but I wouldn't want to be as thin as her. Also, look at the girls on "The Girls Next Door" (a show which I have had the misfortune of viewing a few times.) They're also skinny with fake hair color and makeup and that's what girls think men want. Go figure.

Because I do eat real foods, I don't gain weight easily. That's why I was pleasantly surprised to see that I had gained five pounds. I'm still thin and bony and that's okay. However, I don't like to be some people I know who are only in their late 50s, early 60s and are aging prematurely because of poor self care of eat junky "foods" and sitting all day and are overweight and can't even walk far. If you want somebody like that, I know of a college student who is heading that way and is already "curvy".

Answer 20

That is just your opinion, maybe other men prefer skinny girls.

And why assume that girls diet because they think guys prefer it? Cant they diet to make themselves feel good?

Answer 21

interesting but somewhat risky question.....

Answer 22

im sure you are a fat person asking this - becouseonly then can you b that ignorant and offensive out of jelousy . you know a LOT of skinny women arent dieting @ all , there naturally thin , what i dnt get is why on earth any one would find a women with notonly curves but rolls and fat all over  

Answer 23

this is so ridiculous. have you ever heard of a high metabolism jack ***? some of us have no choice but to be thin, same as some thin men.  

Answer 24

well said m8 have a star

Answer 25

do you want a date? I'm fat

Answer 26

Well, that's just your personal opinion. I don't exercise to be, 'stick thin' I exercise to be HEALTHY, there is a significant difference. You see there is a difference between being thin and anorexic. Anorexia is a mental disorder. Yes I am thin (slim) I'm proud of it, and OK I have no b***s but oh well, are you seriously suggesting I should become fat and unhealthy just so I would have b***s? Frankly, it's personal preference, I'm happy thin, there is no issue. Have a good day.

Answer 27

if you don't like skinny women that is your problem stop airing it out. i bet you look awful sitting in front of that computer.

Answer 28

I agree to. Curves and being toned is alot more attractive then women who look like sticks. It looks healthier aswell. Im a glamour model for bikini way, we're much different than high fashion models, thank god! I love my curves and tight body

Answer 29

Thank you, i appreciate your question, its nice to know that not all guys are after superthin supermodels!!

Answer 30

it sometimes isnt so simple as that

guys always say they like curvy girls, but they still want girls to have a small waist, a flat stomach, a tight butt....

of course girls, who intentionally diet etc, to be stick-insects are not sexually attractive, but its a pain cos its about fashion as well. We're shown good fashion on skinny bodies, so the tiniest bit of flab freaks girls out, it shouldnt but it does...

Answer 31

most of us have eating disorders and let me tell you something right now, the complete isolation and misery of it is unbearable. I'm fighting it everday. Thinking about food every second of the day from when I wake up till when I go to sleep, it's depressing.

I'm recovering.

Take your comment and shove it up your r****m.
