Why do most people not find fat attractive?

she was about as skinny as you can get without being gross, she was also short like 5’4” so she was not too bad, i grew up with five older brothers and guys do it all the time .

Attractiveness changes from one society to another. The things each society finds attractive is success but also especially good health. So in places where many people do not get enough to eat, being overweight is attractive. In our society, people eat too much so being overweight is unattractive. In societies like ancient China where people who labor outside live more difficult lives, being tan is bad. In our society healthy people have fun outside and sick people stay indoors, having a tan is attractive. Etc etc etc.

I agree with what billyshears posted. Our cultures, our advertising and marketing and the people we connect with, do brainwash a majority in how we perceive “attractive”. Not all men who live in the US consider thin, as attractive in a woman Anymore then all women view “V” shaped body builder males attractive. And I think it really boils down to the eye of the beholder and what they internally prioritize. Beauty and attraction can be purely physical or purely internal or a combination of both. I’ve seen some drop dead physcially gorgeous who when they open their mouth and what’s inside comes out actually take on an ugly unattractive aura. And I’ve seen those plain, not so physically perfect open up what’s inside of them and they have an irrisistable attraction glow.

As for the beholder it’s really about the limitations they set up internally that determines how much or little their inclined to see and focus on.

I personally never really judge on looks. I always find that a good personality makes someone instantly more attractive to me no matter of their weight size. I’m currently dating someone who is bigger than average and i don’t see anything different from him to another person who may be skinnier.

It Just Looks Sloppy.

Because generally fat = unhealthy and shows a lack of willpower. Not always, but generally.

my brother drinks beer/soda eats fast food everyday times aday and smokes and never works out and has bad sleep habits he is 5’8” 160, i went on a hike with him he was winded before i even broke a sweat, i myself am 6’2” 203lbs i work out for two hours aday almost everyday and i try not too eat bad food i do drink soda but not much, what i am trying too say is weight and heath are not really as connected some people just have big bodies there is a point where it becomes a problem, like 300 plus where you cant even get around anymore.

203 pounds is far from fat for someone who’s over six feet tall. You sound like a lot of your weight is probably more invested in muscles. I doubt you’re flabby and look out of shape. That’s why I said “generally.”

not really i am flabby i am not toned i dont do that type of work out…. being riped is not something i want, i like having a bit of a belly makes it easy too cuddle, and plus i just dont like that look, i am a nerd with a belly its my look, i just work out too stay a good size i dont want too get any bigger

also generalisations are bad mmmkay the only somewhat accurate generalisation is people who make a lot of generalisations are generally morons

im not gonna lie.i don’t like fat people.like i wouldn’t date one.

Why is that, what reasons has your barley developed mind given you too shut out people because of size?

because they wont take care of them selves. and i just don’t find them attractive,. i wouldn’t wanna cuddle or do stuff with someone with all that fat.

I happen to prefer chubbier guys…
