GUYS, would you consider dating a fat girl?

[TuscanSun]

Most sensible!

I used that analogy to say if some guys have a preference for physically fit girls, we girls will just have to respect and accept that, and not go "Grrrrr! Mga lalake talaga ambabaw!"
There's nothing more effective than putting ourselves in the other person's shoes so we will understand where the other party is coming from.

Just an off topic, been backreading this thread for quite sometime.. Isn't this thread on the "we got male" portion? Expecting to get more inputs from the guys here but sadly puro girls ang nagdedefend dito and nakakaron na ng kung ano anong debate. Is it just me or maybe girls have to stop commenting here? 

Kasi nakalagay naman din sa title ng thread na "GUYS, .... "

Just my two cents

[krnmprl]

i'd been backreading and the conversation here is interesting. i think we should avoid limiting threads/topics to boys only/girls only or saying I accept this argument/I do not accept this argument instead try to understand each person's opinion on the topic. IMHO Janix is not off topic but is trying to broaden our understanding, which is why we come here in the first place.

[janix athena]

What I would accept is the fact that both sexes generaly treat prospects for dating the opposite sex the same way as far as the subject of fatness is concerned.

No objection. Agree ako dito.

Most sensible!

Thanks bro.

Nice one sis. Super like.

[hisana]

Ang konti kasi ng guys, so isama na lang din ang girls sa usapan. LOL

Here's my bf's take on this: The simple explanation daw is guys go for slim/sexy, maganda, mabait. Good in bed. It's been said before and he doesn't see why it has to be overanalyzed, ganun daw talaga. I asked him if he'd go out on a date with me if ever mataba ako nung una kami makita, he said na pwede naman daw friends lang kami, then tawa sya. (Ewan ko ba kung seseryosohin ko ba yung reply nya na ito.) Follow-up question ko sa kanya is what if he falls in love with someone na mataba, then he said, syempre love mo na, hindi na big deal ang weight. Oo nga naman. 

[janix athena]

^Oops sorry sis I didn't know you were already married. Didn't mean to offend you. I was talking based on my friends' complaints who happen to be in that particular situation. I work in a call center kasi and it's really stressful. There's a female colleague who's "bringing home the bacon" but wants to quit and care for the kids but hubby is jobless, so my friend is super depressed and gusto "isoli sa nanay" ang asawa nya.

I'm glad you're ok with your role in the family.

Going back to the topic, I asked my hubby, if he's single, would he consider dating a fat girl and his answer is "Yes, basta maganda ang face."

[Girltalker2]

^ siguro if I am a guy, I would go for a fat girl na maganda nga kesa sa sexy with an ugly face. pero IF lang. ewan ko sa mga lalaki if they would prefer the later.

[abuanddiego]

^ganyan din naiisip ko, pwede naman magpapayat, pero dapat maganda din ugali nung girl. iba-ibahin man itsura ng tao, babalik at babalik talaga sa ugali eh

I think it's a case of natural selection. Men desire attractive girls (usually meaning not too fat or too thin) kasi it's nature's way of showing - she's healthy, she can birth healthy children. Women are attracted to men with money because they can be a good provider. So the offspring from this combination will be better off because they have good genes (from the pretty mom) and a good chance at quality food/shelter/education, etc from the moneyed dad.

There's nothing wrong with this because it's like survival of the fittest. We can't blame men if they don't like fat girls. We can't blame women if they don't like dating janitors. It actually benefits humanity in the long run.

But if you're the fat chick, or the janitor, masakit to hear this reality. So, for women - be healthier, and for men - strive not to be a janitor.

I like this! 

Every person has their reasons in choosing their partner.  

[Babe1111]

Btw! I ask my boyfriend which will he date first, a fat or a thinner lady? he answered: "depende" haha!

i'm also a fat lady 5'4 height 148 lbs, but they don't call me fat, they rather call me voluptuous! haha, i have a boyfriend, pero my mga nabibiktima p dn akong mga lalake despite of my curvaceous body. 
 depende nga siguru yan sa tao. but if i'm a man i would choose a healthier woman nevermind on the body , magastos kaya pag sakitin. haha lagi pang my poproblemahin.   

[Mr.Punch]

Again, this might come as a surprise, but there's actually a difference between "healthy" and "fat".

[Babe1111]

i mean i would choose a healthier woman nevermind on the body wether she is fat or skinny. nakalimutan ko lang idugtong

[abuanddiego]

^5'3 ako pero yung weight mo is my thinnest na ata. pero hindi ako mukhang ganun kalaki noon kasi I think malaki yung bone structure ko, nasa 150lbs ako before pero walang gaanong fats, di naman flat ang tyan pero hindi sya yung protruding, weird nga kasi ang bigat ko pero walang gaanong bilbil, yung mukha ko rin noon parang mukha ng slim na tao kaya nakakadaya sa picture haha! pero yung thighs at arms malaki na eversince. at ngayon na mas malaki ako, ganun pa rin, wala pa rin nagkakamali umaligid kasi masungit talaga ako

[janix athena]

I asked my brother this question (kasi mas credible nga naman kung lalake ang sasagot) and he said "Ayoko sa masyadong payat. Kung chubby, pwede. Kung mataba, hindi. Kasi kung hindi ko pa mahal yung tao, ang una kong titingnan katawan tapos mukha. Pero kung mahal ko na, tapos tumaba, tatanggapin ko na lang."

I realized I have 3 brothers, lots of male cousins, and a husband. Plus colleagues. Masarap mag-poll sa kanila next time there's an interesting topic, for the benefit of those who say "Guys only please."

[calin22]

^because this is under the "We got male" thread sis.. IMHO, threads are created here to get inputs from guys.. not from fellow GirlTalkers.. yun lang naman ay sa tingin ko lang naman.. understandable naman kasi na magcomment ang girls here kaso majority talaga sa lahat ng thread sa "we got male" thread.. halos babae ang nagcocomment kasi nga femalenetwork ito.. hehe

pero may nabasa ako once sa isang thread dito.. na parang napansin ng isang GUYTalker na tanong para sa lalake pero babae ang dedefend.. so ayun, parang mawawalan ng saysay yung "We got male thread" kung monopolize ng babae ang mga threads dito.. yan lang naman ay opinion ko. at mukhang ako lang "ata" nakakapansin nun.

edited to add: just saying my point po.. not to offend anyone

[janix athena]

i totally got your point sis, hence the idea of conducting a poll among the men in my life. no offense taken at all.

[sardonyxmemoirs]

^ ako nga yung number 10.. hehe

More like ikaw yung pang isang milyon...one in one million na lang ang lalaking ganyan. Anghel ka pre.

[phelps]

depende yan... may mga fat girl din naman na hot. hehe

[kathyb]

i would consider chubby but never fat. sorry

[xenos54]

most men would choose the payatos over us. mas napapansin sila.

haha.. as in payatots po talaga? di po ba pwedeng underweight muna o_O hehe..
funny po ito..
