It's interesting the amount of women that are between 11 and 12 or are at 12. It really does seem true then that the average women is a size 12. This is fascinating to me because I am between 8 and 9(in that chart) but have always speculated that it was bull that most women were size 12 since most of the women I met were close to my size or below it or much much bigger. I wear a size 6 and size 8 so I knew I wasn't up with the average size but I always felt like I was sooo big. Interesting to know that I'm not. In fact according to some posters I'm not even considered curvy which is interesting considering that I am, I have a small waist and a big butt and wide hips.
Im just not plus-sized. I don't think being plus-sized means one is curvy.
As if physique alone is that much of a determining variable for a Long Term Relationship?!? Physique is the most malleable (no pun intended) variable in determining someone's compatibility for LTR.
Well, kind of...except that you're going to be having sex with them for years.

Question - would you rather marry:
A. A smoking hot woman who was extremely jealous, needy and kind of a $%#@ to the point that she didn't want you going anywhere without her.
B. An average woman who was relatively independent, cool and was fun to hang out with?
There is a lot to be said when waking up in the morning on a friend's couch and the call goes something like this:
You, "Hi sweetie, I'm sorry, but we were drinking and playing poker last night, and I sat down on the couch after a few too many and crashed out by accident. I just woke up."
Her, "You really had me worried, I wish you had called."
You, "Like I said, I'm sorry. I'm going to grab breakfast with Dave and then head home."
Sort of a spin off from the other thread. It got me thinking what body type some of you prefer. Obviously height and overall build plays a huge role in how these sizes are proportioned on a woman's body.

The thing about attraction that you don't seem to understand it, attractive minds and personalities come in all body sizes and shapes.
Only a fool would choose the physical body type first, then try to find the chemistry second

The quoted posts missed the point of the OP (except the first one, obviously). She was just asking what your preferred body type was. If you don't care, you don't care. But the assumption is that you're either just looking at them, or you already know they have an awesome personality....now what? Yes, we know personality matters. Maybe the OP already knows she has an awesome personality and is just curious as to what kind of figures people likes. Maybe it's just a quick survey to settle a bet with a friend. Either way, answers like "Personality is more important to me than looks" doesn't answer her questions.
Some people just like to ask around and see what people think about a certain topic. But we have too many people dodging questions like this because they're obviously sensitive about the answers.
Remember, the question wasn't "Which of these would you marry?". It was "which do you prefer?" If you can't figure out that the other, more intangible factors were assumed to be equal, then you should be reading this thread with a helmet so you don't hurt yourself.
Like who you like...but you don't consider a woman who is a size 20-24 to be extremely overweight?
No, I consider a woman who is a size 20-24 a woman, and one I would be potentially attracted to.
Women come in every shape and size, I happen to have a very powerful attraction to heavy women.

Actually, and quite sadly, the average woman is a size 14/16...not 12. Maybe it used to be 12, but with the number of overweight/obese rising steadily, that number is higher and promises to go even higher than that in the near future.
