I was going to say 6'0"/190 isn't a bad combo... I used to have a roommate (female) who is 6'0" and about 320 and wore a size 13 mens shoe. She was/is super sweet, very pretty face, and very fashionable. She is built like a linebacker... not this 6'0"/190 lb chick.
I think this woman sounds honest and comfortable with herself. What's not to like about that?

A beefy, rugby-playing bear? You need to up that weight a lot, dear.

She doesn't look bad at all. If me and her decide to breed then our kids would probably turn out to be 7'2 giants.

But no thanks. I'll have to pass. 5'7 or 5'8 girls are my ideal height in women.

Understandable. I was just protesting the imagery the OP was using.

I've been looking at the main page of that site. Pretty interesting! It has lots of height/weight combos mapped on a grid.

Not necessarily! I am 6'1". My ex-husband is 6'4". Our daughter is only 5'6". My ex's mother was about 5'2". I wonder if my daughter will have tall children, though.

Out of four sisters, I am the only one who grew to be as tall as my mother--my sisters are only 5'7", 5'8" and 5'9".

I don't do anything with goats or other livestock, but I still can lift the five-gallon water bottle into the cooler at work, and little old ladies at the supermarket ask me to get them things from the high shelves.

"This" is a rude reference to the woman. It's unbelievable how some people think that if someone is unattractive or 'not the norm' they attempt to dehumanize them...

I cannot get over how vacuous some people are...constant threads about 'fat,', 'big,' and 'ugly' women.

Anyone 'different' is vilified, be it the short woman, the fat woman, the gal who likes to shoot guns instead of cook or sew, the gal who is too cool to date YOU (so she must be 'gay' or 'a loser.).

In the year 2009 we women do not need to 'meet your standards.' I think it bothers some men that a woman who feels good about herself and is not 'the common version' of a 'hot chick' doesn't need to base her value on what every 'loser' man thinks.

I doubt a woman like this 'cares' if you or any other critical guy 'does her' or not. She could probably hurl you across the room. (good for her, too).

Who knows ... judging by the poster's name and this's interests, maybe the OP meant "Would you date ME?"

Most was just stating their preference. I don't think she looks bad, but I wouldn't date her. Then again, she probably wouldn't date me either.

That's fine (to have preference) but these threads are getting so prevalent. It's like no one 'can be different' (male or female) or they get mocked.

In the real world, all sorts marry and get together.

That's so true. Just watch that goofy new version of The Newlywed Game.
