Looks the same to me. What I'm saying is, people photograph and may look WAY bigger than they are. That girl is tiny. I know I'm not big, but I probably look big in photographs.

Comparison thoughts? The same? Yes? No?
Honestly you are a little thick but you are proportionate and I can tell you are larger framed but your but is not that big. I have a friend built like the girl in the pic and she is 5'3 140.

^ I thought Kim K said she was only 108.

I would love to be called "thick" btw. I eat chocolate ice cream every day, but my metabolism won't let "thick" happen to me.

When someone says your thick it is a compliment in my opinion. It means you got curves and shape in all the right places.

Thick is not fat, fat is fat.

This is thick:

Just like how some ladies like men who are skinny/skater type or men who got some swol to em (doesnt have to be crazy frog leg chest bursting body builder which btw I dont find attractive) its all preference. Men dont really get called thick, I guess they get called buff. Same deal.

It is on the bigger side, but I find the above picture better looking than this:

That model looks skeletal. Like imagine if she was dancing on you.. there'd be nothing to look at.. nothing to bounce..

During sex there'd be nothing to grab onto, nothing to even caress.. it'd be like petting a dog that's been starving to death.. all you can think is "I wish I had something to feed her right now"

Wtf it is so annoying when people say thing girls have "nothing to grab onto." Like I really want my bf grabbing onto my fat rolls during sex. And I highly doubt he wants to pet a massive lumpy body.

But to each his own.

That model is actually dead, as is her younger sister. They were definitely atypical.

I've never been into the heavier/thicker look, but I'm not into skeletal either. Being lean is definitely not synonymous with "skeletal". I actually think a great example of what I aim for body wise would be Miranda Kerr.

BOTM, that's your prerogative if you cannot see any middle ground between a body that's SKELETAL, and a "massive lumpy body".
And no I was not referring to grabbing onto "your fat rolls" I was referring to ASS and TITTIES.

So you start your post with "wtf that's so annoying when people blah blah blah" and end with "to each his own" so which is it? I don't think I said anything annoying, and the only person who could reasonably get offended by my post is the model in the picture, and well she can't get offended because she's dead.

Guess what. We're on STRIPPER web. You know what guys go to the strip club for? Here's a hint. It's not shoulders, ribs, or clavicles.

Absolutely not. Usually 'thick' in my culture means curvaceous. It never means fat. There's slim/skinny then thick and then fat. They don't mean the same thing at all. I'm thick and I love it. I work out, I'm toned and well proportioned. But it's probably just a culture thing.

I agree they were probably black/Afro-American or Hispanic/Latino. It is definitely true that in our culture thick is a compliment. And I see cat calling as harmless flirtation no offense.

With that said, the thick look is actually much harder to achieve than the skinny look. With the skinny look all you have to do is fast, juice fast, go on the raw food diet, etc. You don't even have to work out (and you're not even supposed to do cardio when you're on a significant calorie deficit). With the thick look, you have to work out, lift weights, tone and tighten your midsection, but somehow keep a buttzilla and thighs.

I'm going to take my definition of thick right off Big Sean's Dance lyrics -- How's your waist anorexic, but your ass is colossal.

LOL I think that's why there is so much confusion about what the term means.

Really? Wow, my perception of her is totally different. She looks fantastic in my eyes, but I love the very thin look in women....the fragility of it is appealing to me for some reason. Im quite thin naturally, so maybe i'm a terrible person for assuming that other women who are also thin arent taking extreme measures to look that way.

She's not my ideal but I definitely don't hate her. You're not alone in preferring thin women. While I'm not naturally thin, I have always had a really thin upper torso + arms so I guess I'm with you when I like her because I can relate to her. My shoulders have always been really delicate like hers and being a former ballet dancer, I always idolized that look.

That fashion model has a flat droopy ass.

The other one is thick to me, at least from that angle. Bigger frame too, like GR mentioned. There are a few girls like that in clubs I worked at, and they have no problems making money. Some guys like it, some don't.

I've had a few guys in the club tell me I'm too skinny & I work at upscale clubs. You'd think you can never be too skinny at upscale strip club. Oh well. I still make money & I'm happy & healthy. That's what matters.

First TarsTone (who doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about) then Jay12. Thanks so much for the helpful input. *eyeroll*

I think that "thick" describes a body type, kind of like the term mesomorph. To me, you can be lean and fit and still be "thick". Tempest, even in your pic where you were at your smallest, I'd still call that "thick" but it's not an insult in any way.

The fashion model definitely has a droopy ass, but I would call the other girl's ass fat. When I think of a nice butt, I'm thinking of ones like these:

3096330964

To me, dieting down so your ass completely deflates is not sexy, and neither is having a floppy fat butt.

There's "lean skinny' which can be hot and healthy, and there's "skeletal skinny" which is not. Being lean is like "I run and eat clean", the skeletal side is "I don't eat and I can't do anything or I'll pass out".

Anyways, we can debate all day because everybody's got different preferences, but where I'm from, thick would be an insult. It's like being called curvy or voluptuous now, it definitely got stolen by fat acceptors.

Whether it be a small frame or big boned, they look nice when healthy and toned.

I don't think either body type is bad. If they both toned up, they'd look better.

IDK how many are friends on FB on this thread but I'll reiterate: I'm never gonna be 100 llbs. That was another life where I was much younger and doing a lot more drugs. I'm trying to find a healthy medium between accepting my body and also being the best that I can be. It definitely sucks when you are only 5'0. I'm happy with the progress I have made but I also know that I can do so much better.

My rant with the term thick comes from obese women using it as a smokescreen term along with "curvy" and "voluptuous"

Once again I do not promote or accept the idea of starvation or puking to maintain a socially acceptable body weight. I weigh 131 at 5'4" and u know what thats ok? Bc I am healthy and I work out regularly I dont really give a fuck about other people. When I weighed 115 all of a sudden people took a great interest in me and really..I wasnt eating at that weight and that was NOT healthy nor a weight that was realistic for my frame and bodytype..I have more of a scarlett johannson build with huge boobs...I know thats not everyones cup of tea but fuck those who dont prefer my 5'4"131 pounds..I live for me not everyone else :)

It's just a thread for those of us who get called 'thick' to bitch because the word doesn't sound complimentary to us. The only fat v. skinny happening here is coming from people telling us we're "wrong" for not liking to be called a certain word.
That chick is not 120-130. Seriously. Maybe if she were 5' she could be 120 and look like that... but otherwise there's just no way.

Where did I state that I advocated such behavior? I simply said I wasn't into those body types, the same way someone can say they don't prefer blondes or something equivalent. I stated that's the ideal I personally aim for, which doesn't require me to participate in dangerous activities.

Omigosh, I was talking about this with a friend of mine the other day! I was like, "Hey, how would you describe my body type?" I need to tone up more (as usual), but I've ginormous honkin' natural boobs and big hips. As in, my actual pelvis is proportionately wide, I can't diet it away without a Makita. I'm 5'2", this does not help. While I'm bowflexing my way towards a perfect hourglass figure, I cannot. For the life of me. Figure out how to describe myself.

"Thick" has been usurped by genuinely, excessively overweight girls, as has "voluptuous", "hourglass" (WTF kind of time are you keeping with that?), "curvy", even "healthy" in certain instances. ("I've got a healthy set of buns") Any word that would be used to describe my body type has been changed in meaning by evasive fat girls on dating sites. We talked about it for a good hour, and the best we could come up with was "X shaped". I think the guys just haven't caught up with how women are using those words, and still think of it's original meaning, so I don't think he meant it as an insult, he was just vocabularily challenged. (Also, if anybody can think of a good word for "attractive, but not waiflike" that doesn't also colloquially mean "lardass", I'd much appreciate the heads up...)

When I hear the word "thick" as in reference to women's bodies, I usually think that thick is having an Amazon-like physique; like the She Hulk. Bigger bone structure, bigger muscles, broad back/shoulders, etc.

A customer once told me he loved my body.To quote,"You're thick,but you're lean!"
When he put it that way , I wasn't as bothered.He's right.I have plenty of muscle ( as yes,some fat :-p) on my thighs and ass but my ribs have always been prominent,even at my heavyset.

Still, I disn't like being reminded that I'm not one of the dainty ones!

Well exactly. Personally I don't think thick is anywhere near fat. To me this girl is voluptuous and in a healthy, normal "happy" weight range. Idk, when i look at her i think she isn't anywhere near fat, nor is she chubby, but she isnt on the skinny spectrum either so i want to describe her body type as normal with curves but to me using the word normal as a description is boring so i decide to use the word voluptuous instead ---which i think is synomous with "thick". She looks great!

Yes yes yes. I am 5'4" and I am currently a size 2 but my boobs are 34DD. I feel like voluptuous or hour glass or whatever could be a good way to describe me but honestly it has been usurped by fat girls to the point where when someone calls me those things I'm offended because I'm not sure how they see me.

Not any girl. Guys may be horny as a goat 24/7 but they wont just look at any girl. More often than not I have seen girls with "heft" wear short shorts/spandex/tight jeans/etc. Nothing against that, its just not visually appealing to me whatsoever...hence I wont look.

Actually thinking about it, your right any girl would get a reaction wearing pants like that. Now will the reaction be positive or negative? That depends on if the girl has got it or not.

Ok after reading this, I just think everyone should love themselves the way they are. If you're not happy with something, change it if that's what you want to do.

I for one am 23 years old, 5'7 120 lbs with a decent (I think so anyway) sized ass and small boobs, and although many women look at me as "ideal", my two (only two) previous boyfriends wanted me to be "thick". Boyfriend 1 was convinced he could make my ass bigger with sex. Boyfriend 2 would watch porn of girls with huge asses, thick thighs etc, and made me feel like I wasn't good enough the way I was. As a matter of fact, Boyfriend 2 was so emotionally abusive to me (not just about weight) I ended up going down to 109 lbs, which is not a healthy weight for me. I gained my weight back after leaving him.
People haved asked "do you eat?" or "you need to put some more meat on your bones". According to doctors I'm underweight. I'm naturally thin and I actually eat a lot, but just don't gain weight easily.

No woman wants her man to compare her to another woman no matter her body type. It's interesting because men are insecure too, but are far more likely to be accepted for who they are by their women. I really do hate that there is such an emphasis on what beauty is or should be when it comes to women, but men don't hae to deal with a woman saying "You need to work out. Don't you wanna be buff like that guy?"
Boyfriend 2 has that flappy jaw/neck skin and a beer belly lol.

I also hate when women who are "curvier" say "I have a real woman's body" or "real women have curves" or refer to thinner/skinny women as shapeless/sticks/skeletal... That actually really hurts my feelings and I would never do that to another woman.

What defines a real woman to me? Someone who is healthy for her. If you're eating right and live a healthy lifestyle, accept yourself for who you are. If you're unhappy with you're body and are changing it, fine, just do it for you, not some shallow guy who probably has insecurities himself.

And by the way, I understand why many of you hate the word "thick" though (at least with Black guys) it tends refer to ass, titties and thighs(which they find attractive). I wouldn't be turned on by that either. I guess what I'm saying is guys need to use a better choice of words if they plan on enticing a woman.
