What do men really think of short, curvy women?

I feel so self-conscious when I walk around because my body is so different from what's supposed to be hot. My measurements are 36-30-40 and I'm only 5ft 4" so I look squashed and round. I'm slightly pear-shaped and a put on most of weight around my butt. I also have annoyingly thick upper arms which I wish were skinny. My butt is big and round and I wish it was a lot smaller but it won't get that way because I seem to put all my weight on there. I have a slightly bigger bone structure than most women and I'm not fat, it's just that I can't change the shape of my body. I see skinnier women with curves and wish I looked like them. I love having my curves but I just wish I didn't have to be short and with such a big butt at the same time.

One of my best guy friends commented to someone else (who told me about it later) that he thinks I'm "really pretty but a little bit big set"...and it was little bit upsetting to hear that. In my relationship my ex didn't want to have sex with me for 5 months...I didn't gain weight or anything like that but it made me feel really unappealing.

Also like a girl who's small enough to 'throw around a bit' from time to time :wink:


I read that super-literally and was like ":lolwut:" (sorta had images of dwarf tossing going around in my mind :colondollar:).


OP, I LOVE curvy women and I don't mind if they're short. There are tons of guys who are gonna love your body.

If you're really bothered about being 'big set' then, as one of the lifting hombres would no doubt say: 'get down the gym and start doing squats', or w/e the advice is


Thanks. I do go to the gym but I've got a big frame/big-boned (say like Kelly Clarkson) and I can't change that.
Curves>bones
Curves for the win :biggrin:
I'm actually sooo jealous of you ! you sound like the perfect shape you have boobs and a bum your a great height! God be proud of it , im only a size 4 (not through personal choice I just cant put on weight even though I eat like a horse!) I have Cup size B boobs and a pretty flat bum, I cant wear bodycon dresses as my hips stick out, and I cant wear low cut t shirts as I have no boobs to fill them out, I have to live in leggins as Jeans dont fit, and I cant wear strapless as I have no boobs to hold them up! Defo be proud of what you have!

So basically put yourself down to make the OP feel better about herself. Why? :redface:

You need to stop beating yourself up over it since it doesn't sound like your figure is unappealing in the least.

I thought big butts were in and considered hot these days anyways? Sounds like you're bang on trend.

I love them. I get a hard-on just picturing curvy women. They've always done it for me.

I think being slim looks graceful. Big boobs are overrated and smaller boobs look just as good. Since you say "be proud of what you have" I wanna say the same to you too. :smile:

Thanks to everyone else too.

If I showed my face people here would be able to tell who I was :redface:
My friends always tell me I'm not fat but it's hard not to feel like that. I got teased a lot by boys at school so it's hard to stop that affecting me even though I've dated.
