Ladies, why do you?

one word: INSECURE! as pretty or skinny as they might be they still need to get compliments and have someone else appreciate their body for them. its kind of pathetic that (even if they were fat) that they don't appreciate their own bodies as is.

People are all different there is so much pressure to look a certain way now if you weigh over 150 its like having a plague seems like most women want to change something about them selves. This skinny ones who think they are fat kill me they must have idols like nicole richie.

Anyway you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. It's whats on the inside that matters most and having a relationship isnt always based on looks cause when we all get old its all going south anyway so you better enjoy the personality.

The skinny ones who want to barf up their food have issues and need help the plump ladies are just out for a good time and to find someone who will treat them nicely and care about them. I say life is to short so just go have fun.

Good question...

In my experience I was always insecure. I had an eating disorder, I didn't puke things up, I just rarely ate. I ate like one meal per day and usually wasn't a lot. I was extremely thin.

After I had my boys I was still thin. I thought I was so huge, I was trying eveyrthing to loose weight.

After I got cancer, and was on sterioids, I gained like 30lbs. Now I am really bothered by the fact that I was THIN, not fat at all.

I really dont' like the way I look now.

You are right, I find that people that don't eat much, well they aren't getting enough nutrients so that can affect you every which way. Then you are tired, grumpy, no energy, so you are not that pleasant.

Now I am not saying that if you are chubby you are always happy, but at least you can enjoy a meal without fear.

Both of these women have a totally different view of themselves: the "plump" one has come to accept her curvaceous figure with pride and takes a "love me or leave me" approach. The thin woman is obviously insecure that at any moment she will gain weight and lose what she believes is the essence of beauty: being skinny. She she controls it in an unhealthy way.

Usually, a more plump woman is more comfortable in her own skin anyway. Normal people aren't stick skinny by nature, they have to obsess about their weight to get that slim.

I think the better question is, why do men tend to gravitate more toward the stick skinny women and are not attracted to women who are more plump. Years ago, a larger woman was considered sexy. Marilyn Monroe was a sex goddess, but by today's standards she would be considered obese.

Yeah we are really insecure and the way the media puts out the image of the perfect girl The perfect girl is Skinny a toothpick wears way to much make up but you know I see the perfect girl as about average size not to big not to small and doesn't wear 5 pounds of makeup and has a wonderful personality

They may suffer from anorexia nervosa. According to Wikipedia, this is:

Anorexia nervosa is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes an eating disorder characterized by low body weight and body image distortion. Individuals with anorexia often control body weight by voluntary starvation, purging, vomiting, excessive exercise, or other weight control measures, such as diet pills or diuretic drugs. It primarily affects young adolescent girls in the Western world and has one of the highest mortality rates of any psychiatric condition, with approximately 10% of people diagnosed with the condition eventually dying due to related factors. Anorexia nervosa is thought to be a complex condition, involving psychological, neurobiological, physiological and sociological components.

Counseling may be a good idea.

I know what you are talking about. And I am a girl, so take my advice. Well, personally I say I'm fat too, and I'm 5'4'' and 125 pounds, and I want to lose like 10 pounds. To me it's the being sooo close to getting your perfect body, that models have, that you want to try to lose more. And more plump ladies, I think, think they are too far away from becoming the perfect size, so they just tell you to accept for who they are. And personally all girls should accept themselves for who they are unless it is a serious weight problem. So to be comforable, just find yourself a confident girl who isn't totally obsessed with weight.

I dont understand how that is backwards? skinny woman who barfs up her food is most defenetly sick sooo dont take her out..its a mental problem...the chubby girl has image issues way better than bein mentaly ill. good luck with the dating skinny vs chubby I for one don;t care if they are skinny or chubby as long as they are an amazing person and can share a great time togehter.

skinny women don't all barf up their food but maybe you are attracted to the very skinny and they tend to have some eating disorder? I would say that most overweight women don't tend to be completely comfortable in their own bodies but they aren't going to grasp on to an eating disorder to fix it.

I hate when people are like that. Its totally rude to go and barf when ur on a date.

Im not very skinny. but im not really fat .and I dont care about my weight.

yes, i do WEIGH a lot but i dont look like I do.

and even if i WAS fat, I wouldnt go barfin up while im on a date. thats really rude.
