I asked her out and she accepted, since then I never was afraid of girls bigger or older than I. Take care.
I can see that! While there are some bigger woman that can't find a date that are some that have a full dating card. A close friend of mine who I go pub hopping with always has a date and they're not ugly men. She has a really cute face and a great personality so I can see why.

Unless she has a valid excuse like she was in an accident or something. But a cavity getting so bad that one needs a root canal is typically an indication of not visiting a dentist regularly. Especially in her 20s.
Access to dental insurance isn't exactly readily available even to many employed people, and paying out of pocket is prohibitive.

I don't have dental insurance myself. But I still go to the dentist (which is obvious since I have a computer and internet).

Really?
Paul Reuben,the Gibson Girl.
The Romans. All throughout history.

In Victorian times,they wore garments to constrict the waist and puffed out the hips.

To be honestxthe only thing that I see that has been consistant regarding female beuaty is the waist hip ratio of O.7,which you can have at 130 pounds or 300 pounds.

They wore corsettes to cinch the waist smaller - just like spanx today. I went to art school and many people have a misconeption about women from the era you are talking about due to art. Go to a museum and you won't find a skinny chick in a painting and it wasn't because there weren't any, it's just the larger form gave artists more dimension to work with. Hence, the public of today thinks all women of those eras were large and in charge.

So, where's the evident assertions about Africa. Last I checked they come is all shapes and sizes and certainly don't use waist cinchers. You tend to rattle on about the middle east and Africa and other countries you really know little about.

I have a personal belief that you put health above unnecessary expenditures. But this is all offtopic.

I think the topic was nailed by the individuals that indicated that less men in general are attracted to bigger women. However, there's plenty that are... just gotta find them.

Spanx doesn't cinch the waist,it holds you in.

Look up Madegascar and you would see they fatten the women up over there so they ccan become more appealing to men.
If you hadn't noticed,African american men tend to like bigger women.
Why? Idk,but I suspect it may be cultural.

Let's be honest here. When men were interested in bigger women way back then... it was a "chubby" girl. Now big has gotten grossly big and that's not what men were after.

Either way, however, extra weight generally has weight implications and I, along with my slight OCD, find that unattractive.

uhh no, that's just another stereotype.

a bigger women does not equal a feminine woman,

femininity....now that's something that all men like in a woman.
