What I am is none of your concern. No where in my post have I mentioned fat women, but I mentioned curves which both slender and thick women do have. I don't know a lot of fat women personally, so I trust your judgement on that most of them don't have curves.

I guess when a woman feels shes been insulted , she figures a real man wouldn't do that.,thus her statement that he can't handle a "real woman".....The facilitator should really be called the instigator, cause he's obviously creating problems where none would have existed.

Her reply was either an act of self confidence, or a defensive reaction. Either way, she was completely justified and handled herself with dignity. Unlike the a-hole who went out of his way to tell her something she never asked for.

Very true on what you said. Ron, instead of asking the question about what the woman said, why don't you question what type of friends you hang around. Your friend was so out of line and I think he got his little thrill there.

Who would set up a heavy set woman with an athletic man? No one. So I think you're little man of a friend did that to get a kick and was an instigator. He wanted to hurt the woman but she had a comeback answer to save face from your friend and her friends. I'm sure, though, she's hurting inside on what your friend said.

So you and your friends can giggle about what she said....

Yes. I totally agree. I just met a woman who is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. She is really big, however/though, and I wonder how she is seen by guys who really do downgrade a woman's attractiveness because of her weight.

However, I have never heard women say or perceive fat men to be more attractive than a guy who is fit and in shape.

I think it's the fat men who lose more.
I agree with this too, especially the bolded, BUT.......you are not acknowledging the possibility that overweight men can be fit and in shape.

When someone mentions a "real" woman in regards to size, it's refering to the fact that a fuller figured woman is more of the norm, the average. Also, "curves" are supposed to be what makes a woman a woman. But women come in all shapes and sizes so it has nothing to do with being more of a woman or not. A lot of girls are extra-sensitive about their weight and will throw out those "Oh I have curves and I'm more of a real woman than you..." comments.

Defensive reaction.

I don't know that more fat or curves makes a woman more "womanly", though I guess it's probably easier to tell it's a woman from further away if you are not wearing your glasses, especially if she has long hair or is carrying a purse or baby.

I agree completely, that was no class in opinion. Getting a little weary of people's BS lately.
