In Mauritania, weight is seem as a sign of status, of being well-off enough to be heavy. So they have something over there that they call "gavage" to make the women attractive to males.
Then I may of well go there and instead of focusing on losing weight or maintaining the same, I'll work on gaining a bit more pounds... LOL...... Thanks
Actually won't work that much though because I can binge eat and hardly gain any weight but thanks anyways....
Well the answer is pretty obvious in this equation. Personality. Theirs was better than yours.
Anyone, no matter their size, will not get anywhere with either sex if they have that 'better than thou' attitude!
I was not a petite person in High School...athletic, for sure (I was a swimmer and worked my a** off, and in the off season swam with a community team and was a lifeguard), but because I have always had a great attitude towards people, my weight fluctuation since I've gotten older has never been an issue!
Ever since I've had my first child, my weight has been up and down. And even at my heaviest weight, I had never had a problem attracting attention from the opposite sex....it's all in how you carry yourself, how you treat other people, and how you perceive yourself.
To the OP: you sound as if you have a real problem with women, who in the medical world, sound mostly normal for their height/weight. If you espouse that attitude towards any man (OH, look at her, she's soooo FAT!), then that could be a turn-off FOR SURE!
large-framed: sure, if they're fit and reasonably lean. I actually prefer women who are more solidly built to the ultra-thin types.
obese: there may be a (very) few men who find this attractive, but in my entire life I've never met a man who honestly said that he was attracted to an obese woman. A few extra pounds is one thing and can be cute, but obese is something entirely different.
It's all in a person's preference. Some guys like a little junk in the trunk. And maybe other cultures do find fat women attractive. In Anthropology class we studied about this one tribe in Africa that stuffs the young girls' faces in order to make them fat so they can be better mothers and good wives. They don't consider skinny or thin to be attractive.
I think a lot of men especially don't recognize that 5"4 and 160 lbs. does not necessarily look obese: chubby, potentially, overweight yes - but it all depends on how they wear it. Look at this girl - nice hip-waist ratio makes her attractive even though her profile has her at 5"4 and 160 when this picture was taken
Hard to believe that girl is 5"4 and 160 lbs - in the first picture her face looks a bit chubby and her body looks thick but nowhere near 160. In the second picture, just her face - she looks hot.
I would guess 145-150, maybe ~15 lbs overweight at most.

We'll I'm a big guy and I'm most attracted to women with some meat on their bones. Not too much as bigger than I am but the right size. There is one reporter from Fox 5 in DC i had a crush on and she was pretty thick in all the right places, Julie Wright if you've never heard of her.

When the facts don't agree with you, then its a lie.
Here is another angle off the favorite "fat" photo. Not too beefy here.
Cameras add weight and this angle creates the illusion of more hip than there actually was.
Marilyn Monroe was known as a big girl. Estimates go from size 8 to 12. I'm 5'5 and at 115 I'm a size 2/3.
