Average can be beautiful.

My Lady, it's good that you feel a size 6 works great for you, but a size 10 and 14 looks damn good on many women, and in fact MOST MEN, believe it or not prefer average size women
who are between size 12-14.

Based on this article on men preferences.....

Gentlemen DON'T prefer blondes: What men REALLY want is a brown-haired, blue-eyed size 14 woman
 

 

The popular saying would have us believe that gentlemen prefer blondes. But while the old adage may trip off the tongue, according to new findings, it no longer holds weight.

A study found that gentlemen, in fact, overwhelmingly prefer brunettes. The 2,000 men were polled by social network site Badoo to find out the features they find most attractive in the opposite sex.

Far from men finding blondes the most sexually attractive, the study found that more than 60 per cent said they preferred raven-haired beauties over their blonde counterparts.

A third of all those polled - 33.1 per cent - said they find brown hair the most attractive, while 28.6 said they liked black - making up a total of 59.7 per cent over all preferring dark-haired girls.

Those gentlemen who indeed do prefer blondes made up just 29.5 per cent of the vote, while redheads came in as the least popular with men, taking just 8.8 per cent of the vote.

There was also excellent news for women shackled to a life of constant dieting by the misguided notion that men prefer women with a model-like physique.

 

 

Actually, the largest majority - 38.8 per cent of guys - looked for an 'average' dress size of 12 to 14 in their perfect woman, with only 10 per cent looking for a size 6 to 8.

Women with a 'curvy' dress size of 14 to 18 came in as the second most popular size - roof indeed that while magazines fill their pages with skinny models, UK males actually prefer a more rounded build.

Unsurprisingly though, men do have a limit. To be too curvy was deemed unpopular, with only 4.2 per cent expressing a preference for women size 18 plus.

 Nana, I eat well and NEVER EVER starve myself ... I wear anywhere from a 0 to a 4, my waistline is between 22.5 to 24 inches always and I exercise ... my curves are all in the right place as in holding up the rear LOL ... and I don't even look skinny ... not with the extra skin on my knees that can make my legs look huge when my pictures are stretched purposely or I get the wrong angle of the camera...

Check my XS outfit I wore at the last OH conference ... and it way way loose too ..,LOL ... my daughter wears a 12/14 and she is BEAUTIFUL ... there is nothing wrong with curves ... when I wore a size 4-5X I ROCKED my clothes too and NO ONE could tell me I was not beautiful because I dressed my arse off from a size 5X all the way down ....  nothing skinny about me in my sizes 0-4 ... I am curvilicious in the right places according to my DH LOL....

I'm gay, so the last time I checked out a woman like this was ... oh, I don't know, around college (you experiment a little bit in college, right?)  But are these photos really of "plus"-sized women!?  They just look more "healthy" than "plus"-sized to me....

 That's because they ARE average.  More than 50% of us ARE 'plus sized...' --- it looks totally average to us.

Plus-sized models need not be more than six foot size 12 anyway...

 No, no.. not explaining.... just that most of us are over a 12/14 anyway in this country, it's just what you see, you know?

Boys have gotten bigger over the years too -- boy models are often anorexic looking as well.
