you could say
I think all overweight women are unattractive
but not follow it up with
therefore ALL overweight women are unattractive
as to some people Overweight women are not unattractive.
Like I could say
I don't like bread and butter pudding
therefore bread and butter pudding is disgusting
bread and butter pudding is disgusting for everyone
obviously not true..
some people like bread and butter pudding..I happen to hate it therefore I will not eat it..
wow, good for you :rolleyes:
I agree with what Byny said (although i had to read it a few times to get the analogies!) - it's a personal thing what kind of people you are attracted to, as long as you don't say 'fat women are unattractive.'
If you look around you next time you go up town, I bet youll find that most people are plain and ordinary in your eyes, but occasionally youll see someone who you find physically attractive. The thing is even the plain and ordinary looking people arent plain and ordinary looking to everyone else - they probably all have someone who fancies them or who has fancied them in the past. If we all fancied everyone it would be a bit weird.
Sure, everybody has a "type" but just because I don't generally go for really skinny blokes, or blond blokes, or ones who dress a certain way, does not mean that I couldn't fall for one.
I do agree with Rainbow Brite though - you posted the topic and asked for opinions, why bother if you already know taste is subjective?
Are you just trying to cause an argument or do you want people to help you justify your feelings?
I don't find fat men attractive at all , i prefer tall 'thinner' well built men!!!
And it doesn't mean that i am saying that all fat men are unattractive!! - It is just what I like!!
You meet a girl. She's slim, sexy everything you want. You fall in love. You get married. Every day is better than the last. And then she gets fat. Do you suddenly not love her or fancy her anymore? You just call it a day?
True. Alot of it has to do with first impressions. And your first impression of fat people doesn't float your boat. But there are people out there who ONLY like fat people. Or coloured people. Or blondes. Or animals :eek2:
Age, size, colour, etc doesn't really faze me. It's all about inside. Humour, intelligence and the ability to make me feel good are more important that some kinda 'trophy' woman on my arm.
I'm not shallow (if anything I dislike 'shallowness') but if someone WANTS to judge on looks, then why not?
As for your argument, it's only natural for people to lose looks over time. I wouldn't divorce someone simply because they were overweight.
But to go back to your original statement you find fat people unattractive. So why stay married to one?
Why the hell should I not? Because it offends you?
You originally said that you find fat people unattractive. I gave you a scenario of falling in love with a thin girl who turns fat. You said that you wouldn't leave them just cause they was fat.
So if you wouldn't leave a fat person why not get together with one in the first place.
I know plenty of fat (or larger than norm) people and they are some of the best people I know. Their inner qualities shine through the layers of fat and you don't even notice their size.
You are perfectly entitled to your opinion (as we all are) but I think you are contradicting yourself.
I don't find thin guys attractive. So I don't date them. Simple.
i'd still love her, but i wouldn't find her as attractive as i once did.
i think everyone has a 'type' even if they say they dont and when your at a party obviously looks are going to be what first draws you to that person, its a shame because no everyone fits into someones type and it might mean you're missing out on a relationship with someone amazing just coz they arent your type. i do, so i'm not trying to be morally higher than everyone else but then there are alot of people who dont fit into my idea of 'my type' yet they are most likely fantastic people, its a shame coz some guys i've met who are stunning can be absolute wankers. no offence, us girlies are probably the same in that sense.
