(how could you trust somebody because of the larger dilemmas whenever she currently misleads you right right here) once I understand whom i will be planning to fulfill, personally i think convenient.

you will want to “Rubenesque”? rubens failed to paint women that are overweight. he painted a hourlass shape that is highly proportionate. their hip-to-chest ratio ended up being exactly that of a supermodel. individuals who would not have articulated curves and describe themselves as this simply indicate they don’t really know very well what they truly are referring to. published by krautland at 12:35 PM on November 18, 2006 [1 favorite]

rubens failed to paint women that are overweight

by today’s criteria? you never venture out much do you realy? You can argue against you’re blue in the real face that today’s media-induced standards of beauty are insane (we agree), but nevertheless.

let’s see: Rubenesque, American Heritage Dictionary

In the event that you say “curvy,” guys will assume you are a bit obese.

I suppose you may realise about any of it similar to this. Could you rather date more males who might reject you since they do not see you as actually “curvy,” or miss males who will not date you in the event that you state something more precise? posted by callmejay

I believe lot of everything you’ve written right right here will continue to work, with one caveat: do not offer a quantity in pounds. 155 can look various on everybody, & most individuals do not have even any concept exactly what set up a baseline approximation will be. It is not aided by Kirstie Alley’s declare that (at 5’8″) the absolute most she ever weighed had been something similar to 206.

I would personally just utilize the key adjectives you’re providing us, something such as this however with the lameness eliminated: “I’m pretty quick, and I also have a tendency to like dudes who will be [shorter/taller/whatever] than me personally. I am obese, not overweight, and pear-shaped — We inherited my children’s good ol’ child-bearing sides, and even though I do not want to think of that function for ten years!”

Mention just just what has to be mentioned, but relate it to many other material. Until you want dudes in the future away with all the impression that the entire profile = Not Fat, Really, that you don’t desire visitors to need to stay here and proceed through a whole paragraph of you describing your hips in not-so-loving information.

Oh, and now have all of us pointed out photos sufficient yet? They obtain the point across a lot better than any description can. published by booksandlibretti

Have you been pleased with your self? that is the question that is big. You mustn’t have to turn to cheesy crap like making use of terms such as “reubenesque” or “voluptuous.” A lot of people will read those and think “fat chick that is making use of frilly terms to draw attention out of the undeniable fact that she actually is fat and it has insecurity.”

Therefore, screw the language. Be frank, be truthful, and stay your self. You don’t need to be a supermodel. In reality, numerous dudes (anything like me) could be alot more appreciative to the fact that you’re truthful in your profile. We’d go for honesty than fluffy SAT terms.

Keep it real. Be your self. If some one does not want it, the hell using them. Love your self first, as well as others will cherish you because of it. posted by drstein at 7:41 PM on November 18, 2006

That you’re having such a hard time using this makes me extremely unfortunate, since it means that you do not such as your human anatomy. You might be ashamed from it and want to mask it in words that won’t make guys stay away from you. You are scared of rejection, also from unknown dudes whom understand nothing about you. Used to do the same I am talking about so I know what.

Exactly exactly What drstein stated.

It’s what exactly is in your mind that matters. Attraction is 98% psychological and 2% physical. Or something like that.

Guys whom make enjoyable of both you and will not phone you should be glad do not call because they think you’re fat are the ones.

Trust your self. You might be a lot more than your bodyweight. posted by I_Love_Bananas at 9:37 PM on 18, 2006 november

Genuinely but *positively*. Negativity regarding your bod will show through in your advertising, repelling good partners and attracting ones that are bad.

“I’m a brief delicious pear, with an incredible stomach, wide sides and breasts.”

“I’m a curvy woman with great sides”

I am incorporating my vocals towards the “don’t offer amount of pounds” pile. I am a woman, and I’ve pointed out that many guys (no offense, menfolk) have *no idea* how much girls weigh.

For myself, i enjoy the term “plump”, and I also desire it might keep coming back into fashion. published by thehmsbeagle
