<p>jessica alba and eva longoria are healthy looking IMO so I don't see why people think it's a problem that the media portrays them as attractive</p>
<p>nicole richie, and others are unhealthy looking and too skinny, but the media tends to call them out on that for the most part so it's not like they're being portrayed as having ideal bodies</p>
<p>I basically have the same story as X3rose. I am 6 ft tall and weigh 115 lbs and I eat tons of calories a day but I can't seem to gain any weight at all. People say that i'm too skinny but no matter how I try, I stay at 115 lbs...it's kind of annoying. And I am not attracted to "fat" girls at all, I like healthy looking girls that exercize a lot.</p>
<p>okay, eat-a-lot-but-not-weight-gaining-lucky-people!! :)</p>
<p>there was a time when i took kickboxing twice a week. you could just see the fat getting smaller, though it didn't go to a point where i was considered 'thin'. just slightly fat to slightly chubby. but because i can't take the class anymore (many reasons including time), i'm back to my fat(?) state. </p>
<p>i don't excersize a lot except martial arts thrice a week (one hour each), and my lifestyle is totally wrecked because i usually skip breakfast and sleep at usually after 1 a.m. because of all the work i have to do. SO not healthy. my work (yes i work) revolves around sitting in front of a computer, so it doesn't really help.</p>
<p>Lol I'm not anorexic. I provide therapy for girls who are.....hence my use of those terms (ana). </p>
<p>I'm in love with eating. Yes, I do work out......but only because it's healthy and I play sports. And as cocky as this sounds.....I love the way I look. All girls should love their bodies.</p>
<p>Yeah, fat girls are good to practice on.</p>
<p>Jimmy Jones, that was very innappropriate and disrespectful.</p>
<p>shame on you</p>
<p>c'mon, it was funny</p>
<p>How sweet.</p>
<p>while you consider chubby girls to be just as bad as "fat" girls, remember that it's very easy adolescent girls to put on extra pounds of fat, because it's how our bodies are built. evolution sucks.</p>
<p>maybe i should just fall off a cliff and die.</p>
<p>Yea, it sucks, I can hardly take in any food and have to work out like an hour/an hour an a half a day if I want to lose any weight. It's hard, but feeling good about yourself is well worth it, in my opinion.</p>
<p>Girls store fat in their lower body more because of reproductive needs. It wouldnt be possible to give birth if our lower body wasn't that way.</p>
<p>Well, to talk about that skinny thing, I can't gain weight even if I conciously tried to do it, by eating tons of donuts and heart-clogging, fatty [and calorie-filled, btw] items. Of course, Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan, et. al, TRIED to get skinny so that's terrible. But some girls are just stick thin naturally. Is that bad, too?</p>
<p>And the whole chubby chicks should die thing was just wrong.</p>
<p>I once was friends with a boy who used the phrase "more cushion for the pushin"..
although of course I have no idea what he could be refering to. </p>
<p>Overall, the guys I hang out with are willing to ignore some extra belly/leg fat if the girl has a large chest. </p>
<p>ah here's an example:
Two of my friends recently (6-8 months) gained about 20-30 lbs each. They had previously been thin and athletic. If it weren't for the fact that I've known them for years, I would probably consider them "fat." One has been with her boyfriend for months now and he seems undaunted. The other parties a lot and has short relationships but seems to be attracting just as many attractive guys as ever. </p>
<p>In short: fun girl+big chest make up for extra chub. no?</p>
<p>I think in some cases that is true. Not a lot of "extra chub" though. The guys I know have said many times that small chest+not flat stomach is the most unattractive combination (besides obesity of course)</p>
<p>I am actually very afraid of fat girls. I think it's because one almost tried to kill me. Yeah, I know that's just one, but when you got constant death threats from a fat girl, it's bad. Plus I never found them all that attractive in the first place.</p>
<p>I like girls who wear Abercrombie & Fitch, have small breasts, skinny or average body build, and who have a great personality.</p>

<p>What's wrong with trying to be skinny if you're not lucky enough to have a fast metabolism? I think it's pretty admirable to have enough will power to work against genetics. </p>

Depending on how your friends gain weight, this could be true. Guys would now be attracted to their racks and not their bodies, though. </p>

<p>I would agree with you, but Nicole Ritchie was looking skeletal for a while. she looks better now but... I don't find going down to bones and skin admirable, I find it very unhealthy and unattractive looking</p>
