Why are "fat girls" like me so unattractive??

drmario
bookwatcher has a good point. More weight used to be a strong sign of wealth, which is significantly tied to the socialization of beauty. Now, it is the other way around where less weight is more associated with wealth (at least those portrayed in media).
xueli
Well, in terms of high fashion, the reason those models are skinny is because clothing fall nicer on those forms. But that's also why lingerie/swim models tend to be more curvy. The clothing looks better on those figures. I suppose this kinda means that curvy is sexy compared to rail thin
xueli
Better wealth yes, healthy children..eeeehhhhh, that sword goes both ways. To be significantly above or below ideal weight does crazy shit to your hormones, which affects your ability to even be capable of getting pregnant much less giving birth to healthy children
bookwatcher
There are so many factors both emotional and physical and evironmental that effect a persons ability to get pregnant that I do not think that the weight has that big an impact.
drmario
As Xueli suggested, it depends on how much overweight or underweight the person is. For severe/morbid obesity there does seem to be a significant impact. http://www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/news/20071211/obesity-linked-to-infertility-in-women I would guess that women who are severely underweight, or battling eating disorders such as anorexia may have also have difficulty. But, like you said there are other factors too. It's just that anything that is way out of the norm is likely to have strong effects on body function.

@DrMario,@Amuzeki,@xueli,@TM,@bookwatcher thank you for your insight, and to put on record, i am big boned, i have bad metabolism, i've had spinal surgery which was partially successful, last fall i was hit by an SUV nearly 5 months after the spinal surgery, i had to have another surgery on my arm after that and i have numerous medical problems concerning my health inducing early arthritis in my elbow and legs because of nerve damage. plus on top of that i have chronic pain in my legs.. its a big list for a 16 year old but its what life dealt me and there's nothing i can do about it. TM, i understand where your coming from but i hope you understand also, that in my specific situation.. its a bit different. and especially Drmario, Amuzeki, xueli and bookwatcher, thank you for your words of encouragement. i do hope i find someone but i think i need to try harder on working on myself. i hold myself proudly around my friends and loved ones, its only my looks that scare people away..

@Hannah, though you have a fuller figure, you are very beautiful. Don't let any jerk tell you otherwise. You are far from unattractive girl. And there are many guys in this world who would cherish you for who you are. Just a lot of guys look at the outside rather than the inside. The catch is just finding the right guy. You're still young, keep your chin up. I'm sure you will find a guy who will accept you as you are someday. Be positive, be confident. Confidence is an attractive quality on a woman.
