CMV: women cannot be attracted to overweight men at all, no matter what

GridReXX · 2016-03-06T01:30:18+00:00

I have been attracted to overweight men before. They were interesting, cult, educated and nice.

Only you terpers think women only care about six packs.

In my experience, overweight guys do better with attractive women than overweight women do with attractive men. Especially if a guy is tall and broad-shouldered, he can get away with being somewhat fat and still pull hotties. Attractive men on the other hand almost always opt for a slimmer woman unless they have a fat fetish. A guy can also be fat in an unattractive way and pull hot chicks if he's rich or something like that - yeah they'll be gold diggers, but fat women generally don't have the same option.

Very obese women have it better than very obese men, though, because men are more desperate for sex so they can probably find someone.

A fat man is more likely to be considered attractive than a fat woman if he has the right qualities (tall, fat in a masculine way rather than a soft round way, etc). But unattractive fat women have an easier time than unattractive fat men (unless those men are rich).

Look. Is my wife as hot as Jessica Alba? No way. Does that mean I don't find my wife extremely attractive? Sure I do.

You seem to be under some binary thinking that just because a woman thinks X is hot, that only X can be hot. That is incorrect. X is hot, but so is F, Q, H and Z.

Also, attraction is a vast multitude of features and personality traits combined. Confidence and a good sense of humor can overcome weight.

Don't get me wrong... Confidence, a good sense of humor and a six pack would be better.

it doesn't sound like you actually want your mind changed; in fact, it sounds like you've pretty much made it up already. i like all kinds of body types; i don't give a fuck what rollo says. sure, i like some more than others, but no, i can't agree that what's written above applies to all women.

OlBastard · 2016-03-06T01:37:11+00:00

I'm a skinny, muscular woman and only into slightly chubby or skinny guys. Muscles, especially big ones, are a huge turnoff to me. Most people have preferences, try not to be offended that women, like men, are into all sorts of different body types.

Shaenon · 2016-03-06T05:04:24+00:00

This notion gains credence with the fact that there are ZERO fat male sex symbols. Absolutely none come to mind whatsoever.

On the other hand, as men we are constantly being encouraged to find fatsos attractive.

Shaenon · 2016-03-06T05:33:01+00:00

If Rollo's into jacked dudes, he can bang jacked dudes. The rest of us like all kinds of guys.

5 ft 9, 200 pounds.

I still seem to get dates. It may be because you think women are attracted solely to physical things and honestly? It assumes that personality plays no part in dating.

lbspredh · 2016-03-06T08:53:02+00:00

I've met women who were attracted to me off the bat, and I am overweight.

But you're not talking overweight your mind is probably on morbid obesity, and no shit being a fatty fat fatty is going to hurt your chances, but then they get to eat whatever they like and be lazy so it's not all bad

Plus I know a not wealthy guy with a girl who is hot as fuck,and he's so fat he said he has to lift his belly up just so they can fuck.

wazzup987 · 2016-03-06T09:34:45+00:00

Not in my experience. the problem a lot overweight guys have is they tend to lack confidence in them selves.... that or they are expecting a super model.

leftajar · 2016-03-06T01:58:24+00:00

But none of them get a girl's panties wet.

Have you personally investigated the moistness of their panties? Yeah, I didn't think so.

Atlas_B_Shruggin · 2016-03-06T01:51:42+00:00

blue collar men get overweight in a top heavy, powerful masculine way. if a man has a a gut strong arms and slim hips it doesnt bother me at all. i am attracted to this and to "strongfat". what women are never attracted to is ass-fat, khaki pants, effeminate, computer nerd, beta schleprocks

Women certainly didn't jump in my lap often, but I've had a measure of success attracting women while overweight.

Honestly, I don't think this is one of those things that differs strongly between the sexes - generally speaking, more fit or athletic people are seen as more attractive. Yea that's not a hard rule, but there's certainly a correlation - and in terms of evolutionary biology it would certainly seem like a very plausible and basic trait to develop.

It's not even limited to being fit really - being healthy is typically seen as attractive. Things like symmetrical facial features or proportionate limb length are correlated with healthy genetics.

Eddie Redmayne gets me excited...and he was just in a trailer for 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.' But sure you'll get some girls with jacked muscles. Go for it :)

MessiahZen · 2016-03-06T06:21:13+00:00

First of all we cannot generalize. Everyone has their own opinion. Are you seriously going to claim that all the women in this world have same opinion about men? I am a single guy and yet I know that there are women out there who are attracted to many other qualities than just six pack abs, wide shoulders and a V-torso. Of course, going to gym is good, it helps you remain fit and healthy, one must certainly do it but not just for this purpose. Otherwise you would stop going to gym once you have found that cute girl you are looking for? :)

ozymandias271 · 2016-03-06T07:19:09+00:00

I like 'em chubby. Muscles are gross. (Except on girls. Crossfit chicks... mmmmm.) When my fiance started working out I was like "okay, but if you get a six pack I will definitely want to fuck you less".

This is an extremely convenient preference. :)

sofcknwrong · 2016-03-06T12:03:06+00:00

I would bang chubby Chris Pratt because of his pretty face and personality. But a choice between him and Ragnar Lothbrok is a no-brainer.

GridReXX · 2016-03-06T12:19:04+00:00

I'm not attracted to an abundance of overweight men.

But I can name 4 in my real life who I would date and who I find very attractive.

Granted they're all def fat, but in that "I lift too" way. They look strong not blubbery even though they all are overweight.

Celebrity wise Seth Rogen. He has the normal I'm average as hell and flubby body. But I still find him attractive.

[deleted] · 2016-03-06T13:39:16+00:00

It's true that men vale physical attractiveness more than women. But, how we define physical attractiveness is much more fluid than women. Women have a very cookie cutter build as to what they find physically attractive.

This question is absurd. Of course there are women attracted to fat men. The problem is that many fat men hate themselves. How can someone be attracted to a quality in someone that he hates about himself? That's not going to work out.

lady_baker · 2016-03-06T14:59:10+00:00

Nearly all straight women are attracted to masculine shapes, yes. That does mean muscle and a V shape. Fetishes are irrelevant.

You go off the rails by taking it to the 6 pack, anyone with extra fat will get dumped level. We've all got underlying instincts, but they are softened and redirected to various levels depending on the woman.

I straight up, panty wetting prefer bear mode to shredded or otter body. And that is on a primal level, before you even start working in the modifiers like how he carries himself and personality.

OP: what kind of evidence would change your mind?

[deleted] · 2016-03-06T22:57:34+00:00

In my father's day no man or woman was overweight. They all fucked like rabbits. Get a fucking clue, maybe?

dakru · 2016-03-06T01:11:28+00:00

Disagree

Women have an attraction to physiques, that indicate a powerful man. Usually that manifests in bigger muscles, abs, and a classic fitness model look.

However, I have seen plenty of cases like John Krahn, a 7 foot tall, 440 pound high school OL, who is simply so tall and big women fall head over heals for guys like this. I have seen the same with the super big foot ball players at my school.

alreadyredschool · 2016-03-06T01:27:04+00:00

You just have to meet the minimum criteria, the threshold, then you can easily compensate with other traits.

Besides attraction there is also comfort, rapport and other stuff (fat fetish) that makes women to want to fuck you. Sexual tension helps too.

Then there is disgust and taboo that gets mistaken in the brain for sexual attraction.

That was easy, any hard CMV challengers?

redmachines · 2016-03-06T01:44:12+00:00

What women want isn't who they will date or even have the chance to fuck 99% of the time. If you are a man, you should stop worrying about her needs and focus on your needs. Do you think the guys who even meet their physical standards are safe from cheated on? Do not bother negotiating with women. They are not rational. If she doesn't like for who you are then do not invest any time and money into pleasing her.

Of course, it's always better to be lean than fat but if a guy has a full head of hair, is physically robust, and tall, he can do fine.

I would bet 99% of women would prefer a chubby, 6 ft 3 guy with a full head of hair to a repulsive, balding gymcel manlet (the type of delusional freaks who populate the misc).
