After reading 10 pages worth of different posts in this thread, It certainly has it's pros and cons to this. I'm glad this was brought up to all of our attention to as why men are thought to be into the skinny women and many more.
Now, I've always been overweight (not morbidly obese but somewhat obese, yes) all my life because I'm a big boned person and it runs in my family. That is something I couldn't help. Usually I'd get to the point where I'd have a very low self esteem due to the weight issue that I have been struggling with for years and years. There's been alot of diet fads that I had tried and not much was a help to me. Mainly it's because I feel like I'm not to be loved or to begin with just because I am chubby. I know the personalities does count and it's a huge thing to have in a relationship but as a society, there's been alot of influences coming from the media, movies, magazines (you name it) that has been aimed on to project towards the beautiful skinny women. There are plenty of voluptous, curvaceous women out there that are just as beautiful as those skinny ones are.
Sure, from time to time I'd get some men's attention and they'd be like "Oh Baby, You're so beautiful from the face but you ain't all that from the neck and down" I'm like, Uh... Losers. It does hurt and hit home when you get those kind of comments. There's very few that would see me for who I am and I always have appreciated that. Now while at that, I'd be bluntly enough to say - If you're into me, look inside me and don't judge me like I'm a cover on a book. After all you got to see what is inside the book when you read it, right?
The weight is one thing I am having a damn hard time to talk about because it is something that I tend to avoid talking about. It's like biting your own tongue when you hate to talk about a issue that you don't want to but yet you're wanting to talk about it at the same time.
