And by the way, I hope people can differentiate between overweight and fat and obese.

Becoz according to overweight folks and their empathizers, all of those are overweight. It's the biggest scam pulled on men - between a truthfully curvy girl and Gilbert Grape's mom, everyone's overweight.

Would you care to expand on this? Is there a "weight limit" or "cut off" or "criteria"? I know what obese is, but what is the difference to YOU between someone who's overweight and someone who's fat? I thought they were both the same, "fat" being just a more cruel "adjective."

I personally consider 25-50 lbs as overweight. I refuse to call these women fat only becoz it maligns my preferences. One girl I know is 5 8 and she looks just fine. By her own admission, she was like 30ish pounds over. But her height does the trick.

50-75lbs is definitely fat.

Anything above 75 is definitely obese.

They are liberal, coz I'm biased towards curvy women who have weight in the right places and to me, they come off as more gorgeous and feminine than fit women.

But if the girl were 5 1 and she were even 30 pounds overweight, she's still gonna look like a miniature football buddha, so height's key.

Do these women have periodic weigh-ins so you know they're within your parameters, or do you trust them? It just sounds like you like them bigger so you have something to lord over them, man.

SO if the woman's weight discredits your preference, then she's fat

LOL @ the miniature football buddha comment

Perhaps you should have looked at her for a bit, then looked her in the eyes and say something along the lines of * I know you gained a bit of weight but perhaps I can help you shed a few pounds by working out with you and once you feel better about yourself we can go shop for something as a reward

Excellent comment, I think. I hope to use it!
