Yeah I don't really care much what a girl looks like as long as she is open-minded and has a good personality. :smile:

Right, now this should be interesting... do I class as curvy? I'm size 34G breasts (no joke), size 12 waist and size 16 hips. It's a nightmare trying to find clothes that fit me! :redface:

I would say very curvy!

It has to be a ratio. Otherwise, someone with a 60" waist and 69" hips would be curvy!


Technically, they still would be... curvy and extremely overweight. But you can be curvy and underweight too.

*shrug*

Its just one of the theories about what constitutes curvy. If someone is obese then I guess their body shape matters a lot less than how their weight is affecting their health.

TO THE OP
funny how u refer to it as curves and not fat.
whereas the other extreme you use skinny.

i could have predicted the outcome of this poll before ppl started to answer it because of the way you have worded it.


Hmm yeah sorry, but surely a debate is bound to happen over this anyway? thats the whole point. and i later added beyonce curves or mischa barton thin, i guess ppl js didnt look at that!

Yes but if we're looking at measurements - Mischa Barton may be considered as curvy. I don't know her measurements though so I can't say!

to answer this question, try and find a skinny pornstar...
Brianna Banks, she's quite skinny.

Yea that would have been better.:smile:
I saw this programme with Robert Winston biologically explaining that males usually subciously prefer curves (especially around the hips) as they signify that a female is fertile.

She's not that skinny. Sure, she's on the thinner side of normal, but she in no way looks unhealthy or abnormal. She definitely has boobs and hips.


WHAT!!! she NO WAY has boobs...totally flat, i mean, u can see her bones..as much as i love the OC i do not love the rake look!

The point is they wouldn't be curvy, because their waist and hips would be almost the same size. Hence, they're not curvy.

Your "9 inch" rule works for normal sized women, but not for the extremely big or small.



That's true, it is a flaw but I'd guess that it would work on most women. Anyone extremely underweight or overweight wouldn't apply but then again, one would hope that they would be worried about their weight rather than whether they're curvy or not.

Yep, I wish I had her boobies.

Thing is, even though it's common knowledge that most men prefer a healthier, more normal sized woman (ie size 12 I'd guess), it doesn't stop us girls from dieting or curves away. A lot of women just want to be thinner, for themselves and to look better in their clothes, even if by getting skinnier (size 8/10 or less) they lose their curves, or, at the very least, downsize them.


That is so true. I know that guys prefer curves, but I would still rather be very thin - I hate having any fat. I can look at other women who are twice my size and think they look great the way they are, but if I looked like it I wouldn't be happy. My hips are 31 inches atm and my waist is about 23, I think I've gone underweight though.
i have an arse, a 24 inch waist and 34D boobs. i'm curvy, and i really love it. boys like it too. although i wouldn't want to go over a size 10... for me, the problem is my legs. i'm 5'8", and they are quite long, but much too muscular! i think beyonce has a great figure, it is fantastic, but her legs are like sacks of potatoes too. i would definitely give away some of my curves for mischa barton's legs.
ermmm why did someone neg rep me just because i said it didn't matter whether they were curvy or slim, sorry thats pathetic.
