She is rocking some serious spanx in this photo. For sure she is not walking around looking like this in her day to day life.

I don't know how old that pic is, but here are two taken recently. In your pic, the dress is designed to give the illusion of a waist and she has been Spanxed to death. In the pics below, she looks overweight.

Granted dropping 15-20 pounds wouldn't hurt, but I wouldn't label her fat. She's not even that big above the waist.

Her legs looks fine, her arms do not look fat AT ALL. She only has big breats, thats it. She is skinny in the rest of her body, even in those unflattering pictures (not nice angle on the swimsuit ones)

Yes, she is overweight.

Perhaps unflattering is another word for realistic. Without wardrobe, lighting, and airbrushing?

That is skinny? Seriously? The woman has a stomach, wide hips and big thighs. She looks overweight to me; I would not call her skinny except for her arms.

Yep. She's fat. If me or any of my guy friends were to describe her, we'd all say she was fat.

I really think most of the men on this site, have in their minds BARBIE DOLL measurements as being normal for a woman when they don't even take into consideration height or bone structure.
Yes, men really expect women walking around who are 6 footers with 36DD, an 18 inch waist and four foot legs.... Or maybe it's that most women are neurotic about weight/body image and our convinced it's all our fault.

Whether or not a 38-30-x is fat or not isn't the point. Unless she's something like 38-30-46, she ain't curvy. Actually, 38-30-40 or so sounds pretty normal for the women I see walking around everyday. A short woman with those dimensions might be kinda curvy (and on the overweight side, most likely) while a really tall women might be more height/weight appropriate but really would not be curvy. On a taller women, the drop (curve) is less apparent than on a shorter one.

I guess you can say she is curvy but in a fat way. Fat/curvy. She definitely could stand to lose some poundage. She looks horrible in that swimsuit photo. I wouldnt give her a second look or a chance. I'd just chalk her up as being a "fat chick".
