Fat women starting to become "attractive", but us short men?

Edit Post

It is true. There is a growing movement heavily supported by fat women and feminists on how "fat women are attractive and shouldn't be left behind for their weight, now the real issue is how something as stupid as that is more concerning than us, shorter men, are being left behind due to our height and yet being laugh at us for it? It is stupid how something that can be changed such as "overweight" is more attractive to something that we don't have control at all whatsoever such as height.

Well the fat acceptance movement is more popular because more and more people are becoming obese by the day and it's easier for them to try and force everybody else to adopt their standards rather than try and change and start eating right and exercising. The whole fat acceptance movement is stupid and ridiculous, imo, because weight is completely controllable the vast majority of the time. It's one thing to be pissed off by facing discrimination due to an uncontrollable feature such as race, height, or sexual orientation, but it's another to be pissed off for people pointing out that you're unhealthy and that you need to make a change.

I think part of the difference is a gender issue also. Women will always get more support than men in any kind of movement due to what's expected of the gender. Women are supposed to need protection and care and men are supposed to be strong and not show any emotions that indicate weakness, so a movement to help female issues is more comfortable for a lot of people than a movement to help men of any type.

The FA movement is futile though. I don't think obesity will ever be considered attractive no matter how many people try and make it so.

Fat women are disgusting and will never be considered attractive as a whole--don't worry about them ever being considered "attractive".

However, dudes 5'6-5'8 can be considered attractive. If you lengthen to that range, buddy, you'll be fine.

I guess fat women are disgusting in a man's eye as short men are pathetic in a women's eye

Some people do have better body symmetries than other people and don't look as bad when they gain weight than other people so they can eat uncontrollably and still look normal when they gain weight but I've seen quite a bit of men that like fat women because they have larger breasts and buttocks. As for a short man over a tall men doesn't really have something physical that a tall man can't do. But women are predisposed to gaining weight because they are bred to have more body fat than men and gain weight so they can have children. This is a fact so while its not impossible for women to become lean after being obese, it's definitely more difficult for them to.

For what it's worth, short men do build muscle much more easily than tall men, in general.

Can't say whether that's true or not but its more noticeable I agree. Just like when short people are fat vs tall people being fat. It's harder to tell when tall people are overweight because they are "stretched out" unless they are as big as someone like John Goodman who in his prime was 6'2".

No, I don't think they are quite the same. Fat women are universally repulsive to men. Short men aren't repulsive to women the same way fat women are repulsive to me. After all, there are plenty of 5'6-5'8 male strippers whom do great on stage and with the ladies, but very, very few successful fat female strippers. Plus, you do have some not so tall actors lusted after by women, but the same can certainly not be said about fat women being lusted after by men!

Being short doesn't become a tremendous disadvantage with women (except among dumb sluts and tramps) unless you are under 5'6 or so.
