Actually, adult men do prefer what you girls and the media call "fat". The women with some weight on their bodies. Fat is considered good because it helps determine genes and also shows the sign of wealthiness and healthiness. If the fat is distributed into the correct places, the woman is considered to have better genes. Being obese, however, is a different story. Adult men do prefer the curvy, thicker girls to the stick bodies because it supports healthy childbirth and a healthy breastfeed, whereas stick bodies would have more trouble pushing out a baby and breastfeeding (being skinnier also shows that women won't be able to feed the baby properly during pregnancy and that it would come out unhealthier than it could have been). So really, "curvy" hasn't been changed at all to some sort of different, unofficial term. You call this fat... http://img.ehowcdn.com/article-...ls-800x800.jpg ...nature calls it "healthy and fertile". And that's what beauty is based off of for women. Health and fertility.

First thing: I'm a dude Second: I'm referencing some posts I've seen here which pretty much say guys prefer fat girls to any other type, not just anorexic-skinny.

Exactly. The difference between fat girls and curvy girls is curvy girls have boobs, thighs and ass but a flat (or almost flat) stomach.

Sadly yes. Most people don't know the difference because fat girls call themselves curvy now.

I usually like skinny to medium. However I have ran across a few heavier girls that really got under my skin for some reason! Love is a mysterious thing. The right combination of personality intelligence, and beauty can trump a set of skinny legs any day. There are normal guys that go out with girls of different sizes. I happen to be one of them. I have liked and have gone out with women of different sizes. I do not care much if a woman is skinny or overweight. As long as she does not have an eating disorder (refuses to eat, throws up after eating or eats too much then feels gulity) that I do not know about, then her size is not an issue. If she has a beautiful face (eyes, smile and nice long hair), then she is worth being attracted to especially if she has an amazing person-personaliy wise. I have a female coworker who is overweight yet she has a beautiful face and nice long hair. I am not ashamed to think that she is pretty. A girl also has to have good hygiene. http://bestofshayari.blogspot.com/2012/09/long-distance-relationship-text-messages.html
