18F, I’m straight but I can like, yknow, appreciate when another woman is attractive even though I wouldn’t screw them. Fat/chubby girls have always been what I think of when I think “pretty” rather than skinny girls. I’ve definitely noticed I’m in the minority but a lot of times I’ll come across a skinny girl and just think “yup, that is indeed a person” but I see a fat girl and I’m like “WTF!? She’s so hot!”. I never got the whole “skinny’s the beauty standard” thing? With fat girls there’s more to hug and cuddle, but that’s just me. There’s a cap for me of course, I don’t think like Tess Holiday is attractive, but someone like super taruco? Idk why that’s not considered hot, she’s so cute! With skinny girls they usually are just, yknow, people to me. Not as interesting as fat chicks. Idk, am I weird for that lol
This line of thinking is more common with white and Asian communities. Black and brown communities generally prefer curvy/thick women.
And rural communities of all stripes prefer women with "meat on their bones" as thin women are often not capable of manual labor.
That said, thin being in was not always the case. It goes back and forth every few decades. Back in the 50s, they advertized weight gain powders to women to be "more attractive".
Hell, big boobs used to be considered unattractive at one point, and every man I have ever met
loves big boobs.
