I know height is a non negotiable demand for most women, but what about weight? I see many very fit women (I mean hot) with fat guys. Does this mean a woman's attraction is not much affected by a man's weight? Is it rational to assume that a woman's attraction for a man is driven primarily by height and a man's attraction to a woman her weight?

^ That never happens. Most plus sized men I've seen are repulsive rejects that drive run down Twingos.

Oh, and there are plenty of women who are all over short guys if they're famous or have enough money. Veron Troyer (spelling?), famous for playing Mini Me in Austin Powers, gets plenty of women hanging on him, especially when he's at the Playboy mansion and you don't get much shorter than him.

In the case of fit women dating fat guys it is usually down to a number of reasons:

1. I can change him
2. I have low self esteem and it makes me feel good knowing I'm better than him
3. He will adore me
4. With him before he became fat
5. Money
6. Personality

Attraction doesn't come into play.

While I agree often it's about money, often it's about the guy gaining weight during marriage and she doesn't. My wife is 47 and weighs the same as when she was 20. I'm about 60 pounds heavier then when I was 20.

BTW, my wife's New Years resolution is that I'm going to lose weight.

I almost think a short guy, provided he's fit and not a geek, does better than an obese guy. I've seen hot women with short men, but I've rarely seen hot women with really fat guys.
