I'm a woman and I strongly prefer men with strong, built legs. No chicken legs or fat legs. I can deal with a belly but good strong legs are a must.

I also thought I would add that I am petite and athletic/thin. I eat a normal amount but also try to not eat too many processed foods. I also work out because I care about my health. I'm not dying of heart disease just so I can be "curvier".

Those first three aren't thick. They're fat.

I wouldn't call them fat but 'voluptuous'. Thinking old film stars like Marilyn Monroe, Rita Hayworth, Betty Gable, etc.

I'm quite familiar with old film stars and NONE that you mentioned were anywhere close to the weight/measurements of the above ladies pictured.

I think people forget that in the 40s/50s women ALWAYS wore a girdle or a corset making her appear curvier than she actually was cinching in her waist and making their bust appear fuller and sometimes dresses/suits with padding on the hips. (I owned a vintage clothing store, I know what I'm talking about)

Marilyn Monroe would have been a modern size 4, that is what a vintage size 16 is, a 6 at best. An 8 at her heaviest weight.

Alot of men wouldn't want a woman with curves or a nice body because his azz will be
too insecure to go anywhere with her because he knows alot of men will be drooling, not saying
that men won't drool over a skinny woman, but 9 times out of 10 a woman with a banging azz body
such Nicki Minaj or Beyonce some men won't be that secure to date them(meaning not with them for sex
only).
Bla bla bla.........

I like the first one in the blue top with pale skin and black hair. She is the epitome of big and lovely to me.


I am more in the athletic category. I wanted to be "bigger" when I was growing up so I could have more "curves" lol. We should all be happy with what we have and strive to be healthy.

She is actually very beautiful. I'll be honest tho, I think she'd look better if she lost a few pounds.

If I "tried" to be curvier I'd just end up with a gut and bigger boobs. I never gain weight in my butt/legs.
