Are you kidding me?

What is this incessant attempt to reprogram humanity with the notion that an out-of-shape fat body is not just OK but somehow attractive?

There's a reason why Kevin James isn't featured in Playgirl.

Yep, this is the equivalent of the fat women and their "body positivity" and "beautiful at any size" nonsense. There are people trying to push us toward a more dysgenic society, and trying to give phony self-esteem to folks who, instead of deluding themselves that "dad bods" and BBWs ("big beautiful women") are attractive really need to actually make an effort to watch their diets, get some exercise, etc. What I am seeing among men, women, and even kids, does not bode well for the future health (much less aesthetics) of our people.

Maybe they compare breast sizes? I mean hey nothing like being able to share bras. Unfortunately it won’t be the sexy lacy frilly silk ones. It’s gonna be the over the shoulder boulder holder type. But hey imagine the savings. Right....

Well, until I can order a floaty chair via Alexa for next day Prime delivery, I gotta get up - every once in awhile.

I'd pay to see Kevin James in Playgirl. I know some women who like men with some meat on the bone. Quite a few James Gandolfini worshipers when he was alive. Not every woman wants George Clooney or Brad Pitt.

It's quite clear that none of the men responding this have any sort of understanding of evolutionary psychology, much less what women find attractive and why.

Classic case of "correlation vs. causation." The truth here seems to be that women generally like confident men, and confident men are typically happy enough with their body that they don't feel the need to have chiseled jaws and giant pecs.


Somehow Fox News has reconstrued this as saying that women want men with waist-handles. I don't think that some male writer at Faux News has any right to speak on behalf of women's preferences, based on the results of some bogus survey. Talk about joke of the day

My focus group may have been limted but they certainly weren't clamoring for Clooney nor Pitt. Carry on.
