Body type

Good afternoon forumites.

I am becoming puzzled as to the following body descriptions on FAB.

'Athletic,slim,average,curvy,ample,large,fabulous'

Granted we are all different in shape and size but some of the profiles on here should be highlighted under the trade description act FFS.

I am thinking it would be better to just have actual body sizes to avoid misconceptions or even a size guide beside each description before selecting. The question is though what do the majority class as the correct size for each category? Possibly a question too hard and diverse to answer.So should we just make things simple and say selection should be slim,average,athletic,large?

Your thoughts appreciated as always x

It may be easier just to look at someones pictures than what size they have down then you can make your own judgement. I never go by what bodytype they put down i just look at the pictures and if i like i like regardless of what they have written down

Obviously pictures can be a good judge of sexual appeal but on this site pictures are optional, body size is not and must be selected on profile.

I appreciate though that you base your sexual attraction on pictures alone,I though do not.

i dont think any of us base sexual attraction (likes . dislikes) on pics alone.

its a guideline like anything else.

and hopefully time will tell if your sexually compatable or not.

i certainly dont disregard anyone on size but prefer to chat and meet and take it from there.

If in a club scene its easier if you fancy someone or not and believe me, the FUN can come from some unexpected sources,

the secret is ...is to be open minded rather than narrow minded and stick everyone into little boxes.

You can put your preferences in your profile, that saves time.

Oh touchy touchy, my original post was not just centred around ladies. Guys have to imput body size too!

Oh I am starting to think this thread has you seething! PMSL.

im certainly not seething though do hate to be catorgarised or put into little boxes.

if that happens then "swinging" loses the "fun" factor

Think you have taken my post wrong, i dont base sexual attraction on photos, i base it on lots of things but if i see a picture of someone im quite capable of judging whether i think there small, medium or large. The size is irrelivant if someone looks nice they look nice.

i don understand, there is a problem with the sizes issue,

but large to 1 person, does mean the same to another..

I like a man with a bit of meat on his bones, now to some ppl, they make think that means i like fat men, but trying to be nice about it etc etc

so maybe yes, sml ppl are this size and big ppl are between this and this size, its a dificult one

Who says your seething? That was a comment to another poster who immediately went on the defensive.

I agree that little boxes can allow the fun factor to be lost but the original post was centred around the box that must be filled in on every profile, body size, and peoples interpretation of there size.

If you are saying the boxes should be removed then fair play but I also think to categorise peoples choices within this category as "narrow minded" is unfair.

Choices are different for all and I believe the majority do have a particular body type that they find the most sexually attractive. The other attributes that make up the ideal sex partner then follow or vice versa but it is still a major part for the majority.

Well said and yes it is a difficult one indeed though maybe some angel will land in here and show the way forward on this issue.

Well in your example then should we get rid of the height box? Or is that a box the majority of people do look at also. A picture very rarely can show height but I am sure that is an area that again the majority will look at on the profile.

personally i ignore the body size bit ..ya either like someone or you dont if you base it on body size length of teeth,nose , ...perfection no disabilities etcetc .,..your gonna miss people who really make it happen and are genuine and great fun ..no one .,..but one one is perfect once you have compromise in any area ,you may as well go the whole hog and base it on chemistry .2D pictures tell you nothing .and stats tell you little really

yes i agree , choices are paramount and no one should be denied their own choice when it comes to a sexual partner

one mans meat is anothers poison so to speak.

wouldnt do for us all to like the same thing, it sure would be a boring place if that happened

i dont know the answer but do know that ive known people (men and women)

who join the "scene" with preconceived ideas on the perfect sexual partner and then find out that it doesnt work that way.

someone along the line will get your interest, will ignite that sexual flame , only to find out he or she is not on your "ideal" list of people.

thats when the little boxes fly out of the window ......

I don't think having a size box would necessarily help either...women who are the same clothing size can be a completely different body shape and can looker bigger/smaller than their size. Also, some women would lie about their sizes which would be of no help whatsoever. I say just look at the pictures...and if you want to see more then just ask - it usually works!

I completely disagree, I am looking for a sexual partner not a wife. Though even the wife comment would still require my own little boxes so to speak.

I assumed you were talking about men's descriptions - I guess because a man wrote the post. Also because there was a previous topic which questioned whether women would be attracted to a guy who described himself as 'curvy' Lol

but who decides what size is classed as small large etc? everybody's perspective is different What one person classes as large the next might consider medium.it really is a tough decision to make. you also a six 16 on a 6ft woman is going to look completely differently on a 5 ft woman and im sure the same on men. so even sizes like that wont be a great help

Well a man did indeed write the post but I am talking about all profile descriptions, though in fairness I can only base my assumptions on my profile searches of single ladys.

So I have not yet encountered a curvy man profile and have not seen the post in question..lol

Society decides,just like always! I appreciate the height remarks but again that is on the list for all to see though you are very correct when it comes to body shape .

I am starting to think possibly just waist size for men and dress size for ladies is the way forward......

Why the need to have boxes for boxes for boxes, trying to typecast what you are?

What happened to conversing, seeing if they appeal, and here's a concept meeting them.

maybe we could have profiles as follows.

Height...5'2

Height in Heels 5'2 - 6'1

Breast size 38DD....depend ing on bra and uplift...however sag to knees when off. Flesh coloured with nipples measuring 2" when erect and surround by light to mid brown areola.

Weight...12 stone...depending on how good you are at judging weight, if your good...13st.

Hair...shoulder length, purple in colour and tends to have split ends. Looks like a mad womans shit til Straightened.

Size 18 top but narrows to a 16, although the saggy overhang does need a bit of knicker control.

Pussy, average, consisiting of outer and inner lips complete with vaginal opening, urethra and clit. Clit size varies depending on stimulation.

Shaves with a few feather left, bomb doors shut variety, so neat.

Ass...rounded and full, 1 small mole and anal opening.

I think the hang up on descriptions verges on the ridiculous, use your initiative and try and get to know the person, whether male or female.

A pleasing reply.

The whole point of sites like this is initial attraction(well for the majority or is that minority?)

The initial attraction always comes before the meet unless of course you have no standards. Your approach suggests a free for all though described in a very amusing manner!

You describe "hang-ups on description" as "ridiculous" which again is very amusing! Who has a "hang-up"? Is this the word you use to describe personal standards or choice? The site has placed these descriptions for you to apply to your own profile but also for others to use their "initiative" to find others suitable to there own match making process.

All of us are "typecast" and as unfortunate as that may be the original post was to find a more accurate way for all users to describe themselves under the "body size" list.

PS. Still laughing at your mock profile, It would get many hits I'm sure xx

the point is moot: most people will describe themselves how THEY see themselves. cuddly to one person might mean a different thing to another. you are leaving too much to interpretation

we've met many 'slim' women with a pot belly and many 'cuddly' men who were muscular, but felt it was more appropriate to discribe it differently.

best idea is to just start chattin/meetin peeps and seein what clicks.

At the end of the day, does it matter.

If you are attracted to slim, your not going to contact anyone with BBW and vice versa.

So you have curvy inbetween, but as was once pointed out, those will put the description they se themselves as not what another may percieve.

If in doubt....ask!

This post is going slightly off topic. It is about the fact that all members must make the body size choice on there profile. It is not about the other suggestions that any genuine individual would do to meet there match.

If your suggestion is no boxes for size then great put that forward as your suggestion with comments but some of the replies read like they are responding to someone who has size issues. That is not the case, it is the description of the size that should be at the core of this discussion.

Granted we are all different in shape and size but some of the profiles on here should be highlighted under the trade description act FFS.

So its not about size issues and how people can lie too easily and put themselves into another catagory and that by making simpler choices people would have to make an honest choice???????????

No,it is about the choices that FAB give us to make when we determine our size and ones assumption of there size.

I appreciate it is a topical issue but I think one that should be addressed in a manner that does not discriminate against size but offers a more accurate description.

(I appreciate it is a topical issue but I think one that should be addressed in a manner that does not discriminate against size but offers a more accurate description.)

So people cant lie by any chance????

You could simplify it to small/med/large.... you would still find people of all sizes in each of those catagories depending on how they view themselves.

Your small,medium and large category would work but yes I think you will certainly discover all sizes within each category different as we are all unique.

I will simplify matters then. I have absolutely no understanding how a size 24 dress lady can describe herself in body size category as curvy. I have no understanding how a size 18 dress lady can describe herself as average.

Just 2 examples of course but that is why I mention the trade descriptions act..FFS and again that is not me discriminating against the size, only the profile description.

PS. Lots lie but I can only presume they are unaware that there size category is way off target.

PPS. If there was a cock size area and a gentleman said 14inch. You arrange meet based on this fact and other sexual attractions. You meet then discover its a 4incher?

Ok, well i am a dress size 24, on my profile it says im large build, yet lots of messages i get from guys say they like curvy women, so that is other peoples (some other peoples) perception of me. So we all percieve ourselves oneway and others will another way. But call me stupid but i still think it would be easier to just look at a picture and see for yourself.

"Your small,medium and large category would work but yes I think you will certainly discover all sizes within each category different as we are all unique.

I will simplify matters then. I have absolutely no understanding how a size 24 dress lady can describe herself in body size category as curvy. I have no understanding how a size 18 dress lady can describe herself as average.

Just 2 examples of course but that is why I mention the trade descriptions act..FFS and again that is not me discriminating against the size, only the profile description.

PS. Lots lie but I can only presume they are unaware that there size category is way off target.

PPS. If there was a cock size area and a gentleman said 14inch. You arrange meet based on this fact and other sexual attractions. You meet then discover its a 4incher?

Ok, well i am a dress size 24, on my profile it says im large build, yet lots of messages i get from guys say they like curvy women, so that is other peoples (some other peoples) perception of me. So we all percieve ourselves oneway and others will another way. But call me stupid but i still think it would be easier to just look at a picture and see for yourself."

Your suggestion then is to scrap the body size description and replace with photos. I agree that would be a much better method and if it became compulsory just like the body size list then that would be FAB.

I agree also it is all about perceptions but just think that body size list allows far too many.

Where on earth did i suggest that. My suggestion is if your so hung up on someone being a certain body size is to only message people with pictures then you know they will suit your criteria.

Oh my, head in hands moment again with those words "hung up"

So in your opinion then because FABswingers created the choice under body size then the developers were"hung up " also?

I am presuming though it will be the latter, the fact that I create a thread that granted is topical and possibly for some a bit too close to the bone so to speak( no pun intended)

This then labels me by the minority someone who is "hung up" on body size. The next time I will create a thread titled"what did you have for dinner?" and no doubt will receive far more hits, discussion and debate.

Im sorry but you have completly lost me. If you (or anyone else has in there head a certain shape that they want to meet then surely you would look at a picture rather than check a box. If someone says they are good looking in there profile surely you would look at a picture to see if you agree?

Everyone is going to percieve everyone differently so its always going to be hard for everyone to fit into "the right box" and just because people cannot see it from your point of view doesnt mean its close to the bone. I just cant understand why you cant judge if you like someone or not by reading there profile and looking at a picture. Im sure i have never ever checked what size or shape someone has put themselves down as

In relation to the picture, yes I think that it is a good idea and because my original post was about size choice selection then I thought you were offering this as a suggestion to replace the current selections.

In relation to my comment"close to the bone" that is due to your usage of"hang up" which is a derogatory comment in relation to my size preference,which I may add you do not know. It has nothing to do with people having a different opinion on the matter.

The thread was created for just that, open honest debate on the subject

No i dont know your preference and to be perfectly honest i couldnt give a shit. You appear to be well and truely stuck up your own arse.

I do have a solution to your problem though, maybe everyone should pm you and get you to look at there picture and then tick the box that YOU percieve them to be. That may stop you moaning.

Oh my, touched a nerve indeed. I am sorry for your failings in appreciating we all have personal views and again I will repeat the post is about Fabswingers choices when it comes to body size and peoples perception of what category they fit, nothing else.

Well I think that is enough debate for one evening.

I will chew over(no pun intended) things till the morning.

I will rest and wonder if this thread will have more hits than all the "what have you had for dinner" threads combined.

Happy Swinging x

Yes we all have individual perceptions and just because someone may put curvy or slim ect and you dont agree doesnt mean others wont. Fabswingers just gives you a list of choices they dont tell you which one you should tick. I see you have described yourself as slim when someone else might not think you are slim.

You remind me of someone that used to be on this site

Opps forgot my jacket and thought it would be rude not to reply, you did take the time to read my profile afterall.

The secret to why you don't understand and label it pretentious is the following

"just an aw right guy with a touch of glesga patter"

It is that patter that you cant seem to grasp but that is allowed considering your heritage. You are aware of this obviously due to your extensive travel throughout the UK so that left me puzzled as I have PMSL at some of the posts I have read from you on here.

So It would have been rude for me not to check your profile also,very nice too I may add and full of non pretentious lines like"I'm very articulate","very good sense of humour","very sensual", "extremely tactile" though If I am being honest I stopped at the "the sexiest woman I have ever met have had a fuller figure" part as I knew your post had a double meaning just like the words on my profile.

Goodnight bigyin, keep the chin up x

Bigfella are you sure you dont have a double profile?

PS. My verifications are hidden through respect for my sexual partners, nothing else(personal preference,all to there own but just not for me,though if you were still there I would switch them on just to be hospitable) I dont require others words to show I am genuine. I am on cam most nights and have a face pic on my profile xx

Any funny is good in my circles, life is to short for anything other than fun, though with some they just cant help being "beige" especially on a topical subject such as body size descriptions.

Not to worry though that's why we have the "what are you having for dinner threads"

PS. I am not thread'ist for any beige ones about to attack. I actually popped in during the week with some mince n tatties. The calorie count I believe was 750 calories for anyone interested x

I'm a relative newbie on the forums ... although I am proud to say I have actually "met" quite a few people who post on the forums.

I take that as dig!! I started the "what you having for dinner?" post.

It didn't cause offence was just meant as a bit of a chat, bit of fun. Lots of people posted - nobody was offended. Nobody felt the need to step in ....

Have you got anything interesting to say or are you just here to disrespect people???

Wow

This thread got all personal...what a crap time to go to bed, but amusing to wake up too.

So all agreed size is irrelevant, and boils down to self perception and equally others pereceptions of you.

Changing choices to simplified ones wouldnt make a jot of difference, but if we were to put our actual size in it would help those who want all the facts to make an informed choice rather than anything to do with the person behind the description.

Photos should be used as an idicator....hmmm subjective...they could of been taken in the 80's lol.

Queue Webcam..lol..always useful.

Profiles, guideline obviously and also open to interpretation.

Op...open to debate and discussion...yes.

Chance it could be taken as a size issue....yes

Think that boils down too.....oh hang on...yes people perceptions.

Oh hell at the end of the day if it appeals, it appeals. Those who take the time to get to know the person behind the ambiguous profiles and descriptions may just end up with a treat.

The profiles, descriptions,pictures etc are purely a starting point.After that its all leg work ( practices her tango steps, cha cha cha) to see if it worth the chase and prize lol.

To us, size isn't an issue regarding whether someone is a good person or not. There are good large people, good smaller people, bad large people, bad smaller people and every other body configuration in between. It all comes back to the same old thing, each to their own. Who's right? who's wrong? well aren't we all right if it's what works for us? I have been told/advised to alter our profile and use pics differently, but if people can't accept we do things our way and in a way that works better for us then too bad I'm afraid, it's our choice and we do just fine ta very much lol .... anyway perhaps I digress, the options regarding body size are maybe not extensive but where do we stop? with a full body type analysis on peoples profiles? .... sod it it's a sunday morning I need a coffee lol x

All I will say is again read the 1st post, I am in no way disrespecting any human being. It was only a discussion based on the options that FAB give us to select.

I do find it very amusing though that quite a few wish to jump the gun and immediately start disrespecting me for having the audacity to create such a thread.

I myself love lady's of all shape and size but unfortunately that will never come across as the majority would rather discuss topics that they have no issue with and abuse anyone who dares bring up a topical subject that is "too close to the bone" for them.

All I was trying to do was create some healthy debate on the forum, on a topical subject, based on FABswingers body size selections and peoples perceptions of were they fit into that.

I will repeat yet again for anyone who has taken offense, I do not discriminate against any human being but still believe the current FAB body size choices allow far too much leverage for people to place themselves into.

Happy Swinging x

I completely disagree, I am looking for a sexual partner not a wife. Though even the wife comment would still require my own little boxes so to speak."

So you appear to be advocating that it is purely "body" for you and not chemistry ..pheremone attraction,intelligence,softness,femininity perspersonality etc..plays no part in your choice ?

If that is your position, i totally disagree with you, whether it be for a sexual partner or a wife )))

PMSL. No body size is not my only choice but do find it amusing how you read through the lines to come to that view of thought. I will say though that sexual attraction is very important to me and yes body size does come into that but is far from my only requirement. I just call it one of my personal standards.

In regards to give us a beige comment you are doing perfectly fine with that yourself x

Hey _abio

You are correct in saying things are being missed due to the "getting personal" thing. Just like my comments in original post of " Possibly a question too hard and diverse to answer"

In relation to MM I label no man or woman. My post is not about me labelling as some have suggested. It is only about FABS choices and peoples perceptions of were they fit.

If you asked would I shag MM,based on looks alone, then the answer would be yes..lol

PS. Some may say wait a minute he said some people should be done under the trade descriptions act ffs. Yes this is true but does not imply I wish to label anyone in a certain category, I only wish they could be more honest with there own labelling approach to the area in question.

but thats the point....

out of interest would you care to guess what the average dress size is for an uk woman....

its a 16..... which is why I used Marilyn as an example.....

so your "curvy" is actually "average"...

"think all the guy is tryn to say is that someones body type is.. what THEY see it as.. and maybe not what it REALLY is?.

to me anything from a size 6 to 10 is small..12 to 14 average..14 to 18 curvy and above large?

soz guys just my oppinion?

auds xx

but thats the point....

out of interest would you care to guess what the average dress size is for an uk woman....

its a 16..... which is why I used Marilyn as an example.....

so your "curvy" is actually "average"..."

Fabio after consultation with a major buyer for a fashion chain I would have to disagree. The UK dress size average is now a 14. This moved from a size 12 2 years ago as the UK average.

Anyhow I have discussed my thoughts and answered as many replies as I can on this subject without getting any further forward.

Obviously it is all personal choice and indeed the question of body size and peoples perception of it is obviously too difficult to ever change(well on this thread anyway as it does not have the broad spectrum of body size categories that is needed for an open,honest debate)

Happy swinging all x

In my experience an awful lot of females on this site have no pictures on their profiles, only in the private gallery, or the pics are of an arty variety which leaves most things to the imagination. It then becomes more useful to have a "standardised" size/body type description.

How would people feel if you had seen some "arty pics" of someone on here,who had described themselves as curvy,you chatted,got on really well and then discovered on meeting that maybe their perception of their body size was very different to your perception of their body size?

Would you say thanks but no thanks or as you were attracted to the personality think nothing of it?

BTW I know MM was a curvy girl but when you see her in Films she looks so tiny and with a tiny waist...if that was all held in by her corsets then im surprised she could breathe lol

It did indeed honeypot amongst other serious problems - have a little google on the subject. You will soon see that caution is advised.

My previous comment was intended to point out that ticked boxes and profile pictures can all be very misleading.

People need to meet each other socially and fiddling with boxes will never change that fact.

Now, how about we all have a discussion about whose box needs the most fiddling with, and people might fiddle nicely lol

Personally I'd say 12 to 16 was average. But then my attitude on that has changed recently anyway. I'd only ever been with women who where size 12 at most, but now I've had my eyes opened

to the curvy woman. I kissed the curves, and I liked it :D

We never look at the "body size" or "body type" box on a profile.

We chat to people, look at their pics then make our minds up - It's the same with age - we chat then make our minds up about someone, if they turn to be fat, thin, old, young then so be it

Frankly we get sick to death of people wanting things so finely tuned that it takes the fun out of swinging - a Box for this, a box for that, a filter for this that and the other FFS !!

Maybe some folks should think of the old days when you got a contact magazine, posted your info off to a PO box then if you were lucky you got a response accompained by a tacky poloriod photograph of the other party ...

Those were the days !

Well, if you ever fancy something else up there, my work takes me to Glasgow occasionally and I'm sure I can bring you down to earth a little, well quite a lot actually!!!

Another personal attack based on what I can only presume is my usage of the english language or perhaps the inability to embrace the thread topic.

My feet are firmly on the ground thank you, and appealing as your sexual request is, thanks but no thanks x

Please do not close this topic. If some wish to use it for personal attack that is there decision,the mods can deal with those individuals if they so desire.

The content and topic does not warrant closure and forum users should be allowed topical debate regardless of the minority.

I agree.

Those who take it into a personal attack are at fault. It is a forum for those to discuss thier points of view ( dare I say it in an adult fashion) and suprisingly opinions will differ.

No reason to close a thread!

Fot those who cannot debate without resorting to personal attacks, the solutio is simple...donot read the thread and do not post.....simples

I have and also I have read many posts on the different forums that contravene them, maybe a little common sense has been adopted by the mods depending on the post.

I completely agree but as previously discussed I do not wish a minority to get a perfectly valid forum post removed. There is some good content already and I am sure more is to come. Lets just get back please to the topic in debate x

Mr X, you know nothing about me but still you feel fit to judge my character.

I appreciate you and some others find the fashion buyer statement amusing. I am glad to hear this as it shows you do not have an open mind to the individuals who choose to join this site, or the social circles they choose to keep.

I presume though that most will now have an appreciation of your character judging by the fact you believe "words" on my profile "rank alongside some of the most evil tyrants who have ever lived"I can only wish that was the case and our world would be a much better place. I am not here for credibility, I am an individual who is here for fun and I can fully appreciate the difference between us is "standards". I have no issue with this, each to there own and if yourself and some others used this in your day to day lives then maybe you would understand the point of this thread.

PS. I did have some other comments but they seem to have been removed by the MOD. Perhaps just a little to "close to the bone" but hopefully some forum users managed to glimpse them and can appreciate the sentiment x
