"A 5ft 11 size 12 woman will look very different to a 4ft 11 size 12 and a Marks and Spencers size 12 is very different to a Top Shop 12. Pictures are the best way to go in my opinion." I agree with what you say about the height to dress size same for men's height and waist but it does give you an idea in your head, problem with pics they can be taken to look a lot different, plus you couldn't search by pics but there could be a search reference to size in the search engine? | |||

"I like 'curvy' as I love my curves but I had so many people comment that I wasn't 'fat' so I changed it to Average - sounds less glam! "Lol you still look fab though  (perhaps you should choose that! Lol) this is my point the current system means you don't actually know what some one really looks like until you meet them in person, you do look good though;) | |||

"Misogyny at its very best.. How so? " It's basically saying'women should post their dress size online so that they can be judged by it'. The addition of the men with waist or chest thing reads like an afterthought and wouldn't work btw.. I'm a 44 chest and a 30 waist, which would I use? | |||

"Really. . . . . Body shape comes into it also . . . . As a "plus size lady" "bigger girl" "bbw" "curvier woman" or "fat bird" to some people body shape comes into it big time an hour glass, apple, or pear shaped ladies can all be the same dress size and look totally different. And whos to say ladies wouldn't lie .... guys been doing it years ..... "I got a 9inch cock" ... 7 at best is usually the reality" Fair point, so should you have both sets? unfortunately people will lie but that's when the veris come into play! | |||

" Measurement based on size is given negative connotations by society, not by people.. asking people to publicly post this would serve to exacerbate that regardless of what the individual feels. With the BBW example in mind too, size 16 at 6ft would look completely different to the same size at 5ft too. Like i said, there's too many variables IMO. I think we have very different views on women and appearance though.. not that there's anything wrong in that of course, that's part of life  | |||

"So concerned with sizes in a label OP, sexiness is about how someone carries themself. Being short and what I would class as 'curvy' I know how confusing clothes sizes are.

Exactly size is subjective "Very true. If you have a preference then it could help if you just clarified on your own profile to let people know. I find to demand a dress size quite offensive.

"Body sizes for woman profiles should be in their dress sizes? as many people's views on curvy or average are different. Men's should go on waist size and chest size for the same reasons I agree. "Curvy" is too vague as is "average". So is the way Athletic is used I have to agree with athletic, as to me is means gym fit (Jessica Ennis) not a Russian shot putter! Although they're both athletes Is a game of darts described as sport? It's shown on the sport's channel. A lot of darts players are far from what I would class as athletic build
Exactly size is subjective
Very true. If you have a preference then it could help if you just clarified on your own profile to let people know. I find to demand a dress size quite offensive. Like someone posted earlier in the thread if it matters that much to you then have a social first.

" I'm anything from a 12-16 in some shops! Clothes size is v subjective too " Fair enough I didn't realise sizes changed that much, that's the type of reply I was looking for, informative and polite! Thankyou | |||

"Sounds a little like a cattle market to me? Why do people have to compy to your measurements? " I'm not asking them to comply it was just purely a question. Plus surely curvy BBW slim etc are all measurements to just ones without numbers? | |||

"I wasn't demanding anything just asking would it be a better way to describe someone, yes beauty can be any shape it's just confusing to know sometimes what someone means by curvy or average etc, But I also mention about the men's sizes too as they can be misleading as well? | |||

"Well said. If we all liked the same the world would b a boring place. But then I'm not shallow enuf to go by looks/size etc altho I agree 1st impressions in a foto counts, I prefer to meet if there's an initial attraction and take it from there. No need to b nasty if Theyr not for u, I always think of a nice get out. Iv had comments like ur hotter than ur pics to curvy surely u mean fat!!. Altho he didn't have any verifications and was moaning he Cdnt get a meet. I wonder why?? " Lol yep some people have a certain way with words on here! But I don't think that someones shallow because they go by looks or size Everyone's mind works in different ways, but If they assume that that person isn't good enough to talk to because of what you look like then that's a horrible prejudice. | |||

"I think there's something in this. The current system is too laden with judgement. Who wants to be "average"? And who wouldn't want to describe themselves as "fabulous"? And does "slim" mean skinny? And if a guy is broad shouldered and tall is he "large"? And aren't most women "curvy"? And isn't "ample" a tad degrading? Fair point hadn't looked at it like that A numeric system just stating what size you are is far less judgement laden. " | |||

"Misogyny at its very best.. How so? It's basically saying'women should post their dress size online so that they can be judged by it'. The addition of the men with waist or chest thing reads like an afterthought and wouldn't work btw.. I'm a 44 chest and a 30 waist, which would I use? Everything we post on here is judged. That's how human beings makes choices. I'm just saying to clarify up what the definition of curvy/average/fabulous is. You would use both that along with your pics would let people make a better judgement of what you look like? Yeah i agree, we're judged in everything that we do in everyday life.. i think we differ on the significance of how relevant the number stitched into the label of clothing is though. There are too many variables and it's a measure that's used in everyday life with negative connotations, for me, this is where the benefits of meeting someone for coffee first lies. " I always meet for coffee first for this reason. Pics and dress size and descriptions can be misleading. If I'm meeting someone I send a pic first so they have an idea of me, and they'll know if they want a coffee or not.
I don't want anyone to be disappointed because they were expecting a slim woman or a BBW as I'm neither extreme.
I'm not so big headed that I think body size doesn't matter. Of course attraction matters!
Good point OP. | |||

And whos to say ladies wouldn't lie .... guys been doing it years ..... "I got a 9inch cock" ... 7 at best is usually the reality Fair point, so should you have both sets? unfortunately people will lie but that's when the veris come into play! the verification is just to prove who they are and turned up, are you saying that the persons body size should be added into this op? No I'm saying that if someone was lying on their profile then this would show by the veris either they wouldn't have any or it would say in them, the whole point of a verification is for people to verify this person is who they are and what they're like, if there're lying in their profile then you should state that or report them I guess? " It's all meant to be a bit of fun... Stateing people's body shape is a bit OTT... I always state I'm large because truly I'm at the largest I've ever been lol but others will say I'm not but i suppose it's just how u feel... Ppl are not gonna start putting size in verifcations... I have met guys who's pictures they have sent must be at least 10 years old they have stated they are 32 on their profile when in reality they have got to be at least 20 years older than that lol.... Least to say it's only ever been a drink and a quick chat its never led to sex as that's not wat I'm looking for... I'm a nice person so i have sent a veri not saying this man is 20 years older than stated but to say met for a drink seems a nice guy etc etc but will always mention we haven't played because yes he might of been a nice guy but just not some 1 i wanted to have sex with so how the next girl he says his in his 30s to every gonna know the truth veries never really mean that much x | |||

There's more obese people so more emphasis put into tackling obesity, but it's actually far more unhealthy to be underweight than overweight. Both issues is why an healthy weight (BMI 25) is advisable "The NHS advise is: "Regardless of your height or BMI, you should try to lose weight if your waist is: 94cm (37ins) or more for men 80cm (31.5ins) or more for women" From the gov website: "More than two-thirds (68.8 percent) of adults are considered to be overweight or obese. More than one-third (35.7 percent) of adults are considered to be obese. More than 1 in 20 (6.3 percent) have extreme obesity. Almost 3 in 4 men (74 percent) are considered to be overweight or obese." Yes, being fat or obese is a much, much bigger (no pun intended) problem as if all the remainder were underweight, they would still only account for 31.2% of the population; some must be the correct weight, though BMI has to be taken along-with BFI. Again, from the NHS website: "below 18.5 – you're in the underweight range between 18.5 and 24.9 – you're in the healthy weight range between 25 and 29.9 – you're in the overweight range between 30 and 39.9 – you're in the obese range" | |||

What health risks does being underweight pose?"If you are severely underweight it can also put excessive strain on your organs (an extremely low body fat percentage is not good for you) it's all about balance. Your both right | |||

but it's actually far more unhealthy to be underweight than overweight.
I totally disagree - being overweight puts stress on your internal organs, mostly your heart. You are at higher risk of diabetes,heart attacks or stroke.
What health risks does being underweight pose?"If you are underweight, it's likely that you are not consuming a healthy, balanced diet, which can lead to you lacking nutrients that your body needs to grow and work properly. Calcium, for example, is important for the maintenance of strong and healthy bones. Being underweight increases the risk of osteoporosis and fibromyalgia in later life. If you're not consuming enough iron, you may develop anaemia, which may leave you feeling drained and tired. Your immune system is not 100% when you’re underweight, making you more likely to catch a cold, the flu or other infections, which can progress to more serious illnesses quickly Women who have lost a lot of weight can find that their periods stop. This increases the risk of fertility problems. In prolonged cases of being underweight or anorexia it can lead to multiple organ failure also because your body may not be getting the nutrients it needs to sustain those organs efficiently | |||

If you are severely underweight it can also put excessive strain on your organs (an extremely low body fat percentage is not good for you) it's all about balance. Your both right"But you are talking about the extreme 'severely underweight' Someone who is classed as underweight will pose no significant issues solely because of that.

You don't need to be severely underweight just underweight for a prolonged period of time can have long term side effects health wise
but it's actually far more unhealthy to be underweight than overweight.

"At the end of the day, people are overweight because they do nothing about it. I am classed as underweight, but I eat healthy, don't drink or smoke - swim 4 times a week and bike it work everyday. I would say my risk of being ill solely from being underweight is zero " I'm overweight! I don't smoke , I drink 1 day a week, I have already lost 5 stone doing slimming world , I go to 4 classes at the gym a week (body combat bodymax etc) also 4 sessions in the actual gym every week! So I would say I'm doing something about it & im still overweight! I think your comment was a little unfair. | |||

So a long long time ago. I have been successful & then it all fell apart. Happened a lot. So yes I am losing weight , keeping fit , but as I said I am overweight , I will be for a long time . If you saw me in the street you wouldn't know I am in the gym most of the week , I would look overweight.

"Body sizes for woman profiles should be in their dress sizes? as many people's views on curvy or average are different. Men's should go on waist size and chest size for the same reasons" Fine I do wish there were better sizing options on the profile. I am size 20 and 5'7" I am large and unfit
I would like to see men be honest about their size too ,maybe the size of trouser waist and leg length /chest measurement so we could sort out exactly what to expect.
personally not keen on the word cuddly used as a description. | |||

Plenty of people try their absolute best but cannot shift the weight, until you know each and every persons situation you cannot make such sweeping statements. I would never say all slim/thin women are like that because they are annorexic | |||
