Yes, body size matters!!! I don't think the OP sounds fat at all though. I have a not so funny story that maybe I'll laugh about eventually. If only I'd journaled all my dates since the divorce, I'd have a best seller and really could move to Spain and find the woman of my dreams. But I digress. Last night I had a date with a woman who described herself as "curvy". First off, I broke my #1 rule with online dating, which is no body shot, no date. She had 3 face shots. I asked her about her body and she said curvy. I went one farther and asked what that meant to her. I get a BS answer about women having curves, blah, blah, blah. So fine, met her for dinner. I found out "curvy" is the new word for fat. Or is that BBW? Who knows. Suffice it to say I will not make that mistake again. So that story just illustrates how body size and fitness matters. i'm into fitness, eat healthy, etc., and I refuse to ever date a woman who doesn't make an effort in those areas.
Curvy used to mean women with big boobs or big hips but not anymore. I have a very large upper body with large chest and somewhat broad shoulders but have slim hips. I used to call myself curvy because of my boobs but stopped when I realized it means fat.

Curvy is not fat.
I was described on this board as curvy. I am 120-125lbs and wear size 2/4 jeans. Far from fat.
Personally, I'm attracted to a lot of different body types. A sweet disposition goes a long way. Petite is OK, but not all women are meant to be that size. Just like how men can be stocky, wiry, top-heavy and the genetically blessed with great muscle mass and definition.
The face doesn't lie with women. Some women are chubby but their face shape/size is leaner than expected. That woman was probably meant to be heavier and probably looks better at her natural size. Ladies (in my experience) have to work much harder to reach a particular size. Just about every woman I know at work is far more disciplined with their eating habits than the men. Yet the men drop weight much quicker when trying.

One thing you've said that I agree with. Call yourself "average" based on that description. This woman had a huge butt and legs the size of tree trunks. Just gross.

I've tried average but that means heavy too. I don't do online anymore but would probably call myself muscular because I do have very muscular arms and legs.

Size 2/4 is not curvy. But that's ok, you just don't get to have that *one* positive word define your body type. The majority of positive words are for your body type.
