It has nothing to do with be straight or gay.

I suspect many fat gay men are turned down by slim attractive gay men and tend to think that young attractive slim gay men are full of drama, are shallow and way too picky.

Some people just like a slim, trim and well toned body. I would think any gay man would understand that.

To say it's shallowness is bull. It's no more shallow than only dating blondes, brunettes or women with large breasts.

I think the OP makes a valid point in that it is the fat women's fault, not men's or "society's" for them not being seen as viable dating material.
WHO ARE ALL THESE FATTIES MAKING A PLAY FOR YOU "PRIZE HOT GUYS?"
Seriously, do you guys obsessed with fat women threads do nothing but imagine every girl in the world WANTS you?

I agree everywhere you look you see fat ass people. Myself included, What kind of trips me out is is how teenagers are getting so fat so young. I didn't start putting on weight til I was well into my 20's. Now all you see is fat kids.

Too much PS3 I guess.

There is a market for everyone. Google "BBW Dating" and see how many sites are dedicated to larger women. There are men out there who love them, but I doubt a quality man will want a woman with such a crappy attitude.

Oh the irony.
(I agree with your overall assessment, Samston- that no one is obligated to date someone they are not attracted to- but what you've posted above seems pretty shallow...kind of like if I said "only dating millionaires" etc.)
Just my opinion, of course.

Most men at some point in their life have been called all sorts of names for rejecting a so-called overweight women purely for her weight. I have, my brothers have, all my friends have. And I suspect a large number of men on this board have.

I'm no hottie by any means, but I do look good and I am in good shape, and yet I was expected to happily accept a woman with fat all over the place. The OP has a perfectly valid point, there is a huge woe-is-me attitude amongst overweight women. I have nothing against them personally, but sometimes a person who can never get a date need to look in the mirror and examine what's wrong with him/her. And that goes for single mums, nice guys and fat women. And everyone else with issues.

You guys need to man up and tell these 'hoards of women' you don't fancy them. Be honest. Say I am not attracted to you, Cow-woman. Heifer. Big Mama, whatever you choose. Make it mean.

If it devastates them, well, you've done your job for 'hot guys' everywhere. These ladies have 'no reason or right to have feelings!'

If they say you don't like me because I am fat tell them "That's right." Then they can choose to deal with their weight or not. It might be a good eye opener for these women.

How dare they think they can get 'someone' above their stations?

My central point is that, to a large degree, in our society overweight women hold a disadvantage in the dating stakes. Of course, this does not mean nobody wants to date them; we all have different tastes in whom we deem/find attractive.

Nonetheless, the key is turning a negative into a positive. Losing weight/eating healthier would make one more attractive to date. Focusing more on improving personality can also have the same effect.

I agree with Dorrans and others who have voiced similar comments - sometimes we have to look at how we are at fault in situations, instead of presuming others are always to blame.
