Nevermind what your own size is, are you generally attracted to people who carry a few more extra pounds?

It honestly depends on the person, but when it comes to dating (like blind dating or whatever) overweight people, **I** never seem to come into contact with that cute overweight guy whose 20 extra pounds he can either pull off, or works to his advantage. I always wind up being confronted the type of fat guy I'm not attracted to.

Nothing wrong with a few extra pounds.

So long as it's not "sloppy" weight and she wears clothes that FIT, then a few extra pounds doesn't hurt IMO

I don't really dig dudes that are skinny. I like a nice build on a guy. He doesn't have to be all buff and muscles but he can't look like Sherman Klump either.

I'm not attracted to obesity, but as with most things in life it really depends on how they CARRY themselves. If a woman is pretty and carries herself well, the extra weight won't negate it.

Sometimes a little extra weight can add to someone's appeal. It really depends on the person, and how well they carry themselves (how they dress, how they groom, their outward demeanor, etc., etc.) overall.

I agree with Chris...a few extra pounds is maybe OK sometimes if he is confident.

I am not attracted to stick chicks. I don't want to hurt myself on any sharp edges.

I don't have a problem with men who are a little thicker around the middle - they can be just as attractive as slimmer men. It all depends on how he carries himself and what his personality is like.

What really does not impress me is six pack abs - six pack abs must take a lot of work and I'm not interested in a man who is going to spend that much time on his looks. Obviously six packs are so unnatural - I like someone who's a little more natural and normal looking and who isn't trying so hard to impress people.

A few extra pounds don't bother me - ITA that it's his personality and attitude that's more important. If someone was obsese, though, i don't know if I'd be attracted, as I'd want someone who'd be interesting in going on hikes and stuff like that.
