FabSwingers.com forum: can fat be described as curvy?

I grew up thinking a women with curves typcially had a hour glass figure, with bum and breasts.

But I think in 2012 curvy tends to decribe the overweight.

My mother taught me not to say yes to everything, so this time I'll say No.

But if we just keep bumping this thread until thursday..... maybe I'll have a different answer

Back in the day Marilyn Monroe and Diana Doors were classed as Curvy and they were dam fine ladies x And after seeing Lisa Riley on strictly she is one hot lady x curves and confidence a very sexy combination x

Well I describe myself as curvy and at just over 9st and a size 10/12, that's hardly overweight, but even so, curvy is good

I've never personally described myself as curvy ... but if it helps you sleep at night, you are perfectly within your rights not to regard 'the overweight' as curvy. Sorted.

Curves are both concave and convex. Fat is just convex.

When you watch the forums for a little while you notice a pattern. One is that this subject comes up a fair amount, with different titles. Another is that people go slightly bonkers on a Thursday and have a rant. It can get a little hot and bothered, not in a sexy way, on a Thursday.

So, what did you observe that made you ask the question?

on a serious note you cant win on here, i used to have on my profile i am fat and people would mail me telling me not to be down down on myself, so i changed it and then people want to take you to trade description for calling yourself other than fat......seriously you cant win

why are people so hung up on what fat women choose to call themselves?

My fat belly is here for a reason, as are my stretch marks and I'm very proud to have been lucky to carry a child. If others are disgusted by it, no skin off my nose.

I like BBW. I also put athletic women and skinny women in two different Categories.

So do you think BBW are just fat then?

I would describe my self as curvy . By no means fat and a size 12 with a 36d bust. People stereotype people all the time . I say I feel happy in my own skin and the only person whose opinion the matters of how I look is mine and hots . I was 7 and half stone when we met and looked like I needed feeding up . So I'm cheering and flying the flag for all us curvaceous ladies today.

I was a size 20 not so long ago, I was curvy and had a womanly shape even though i was very overweight and fat! I'm now a 16 and I would still describe myself as curvy, maybe even more curvy

And I'm sure as I continue to slim down I'll still be curvy!!! I would hate to lose my curves, they are what makes me feel sexy

A very interesting thread to read, and see the _iews of lots of people, but at the end of the day, whether I class myself as curvy/overweight/fat/fabulous, its in the eye of the beholder as to what they see me as.

I see me as a person who wobbles a bit, but im fine with that. Some are not, again, this is fine, its a preference. Some like, some dont. Cant please everyone, but who wants to please everyone anyway...

Both marathon runners and shotputters are athletes.

But would any woman expect a man describing themselves as 'athletic' to look like either?

I agree with you.... a woman with curves means curves not folds....... but try telling the guys that as it seems to be men who insist on using curvy to mean anything they want... more so than the women.

In my opinion, as judgemental as it sounds, if you have to lift your belly to see your genitals (either gender) then you are fat - not curvy.

Fat is much maligned, and looked down upon.

However, it's where we store fat-soluable vitamins which could be potentially poisonous in high doses, like A, D, E and K, so the chubsters amongst us (yes, thats me too!) are doing the world a favour by storing away these nasties!

All hail us chubsters!
