Would you rather be supersized or superskinny?

I really must disagree on both counts. I cannot think of anyone size 16 that I've ever classed as attractive, nor do I believe such a size is healthy in an ordinary and natural meaning of the word.


Well then that's your opinion, which you're entitled to.
This is my opinion. So if you don't understand me, then what difference does it make to you?

Clearly this whole thread is going to be people posting subjectively, isn't it?

I disagree with you. Waheeey. Now what?

Thanks for doing this poll guys :smile:
Superskinny, absolutely.

The thought of stuffing my face with greasy takewaways and unhealthy "snacks", as well as having excessive flab, makes me feel physically sick. I know that sounds a bit...obsessive, but it's the truth - I lead a healthy lifestyle and I don't "diet" in the conventional sense, however I eat healthy food and I exercise too, not excessively but just the thought of being overweight just makes me feel...urgh :no: (at the moment I'm a size 6-8)

Sad but painfully true.

Superskinny.

Why do people see superskinny as more acceptable than being supersized?



I think you just answered your own question. Being superskinny looks healthier to people than supersized generally, despite the fact that they are as bad as each other. People would rather be superskinny because it is perceived as better.

I'm not saying I'd rather be supersized, but that's just how I think it works.
