Beauty (and I suppose hotness) is in the eye of the beholder

Re: Spinoff to Moment of Truth Post
ABSOLUTELY!!!
Being hot/sexy is all about confidence, sense of style and how you carry yourself.
If someone is on the large side and is sloppy, no I don't think they're hot. The same goes for a pin thin person.

Re: Spinoff to Moment of Truth Post
I think "hotness" is the one thing that anyone of us can truly control.
you may not be beautiful to someone who likes blondes if you are a brunette, but if you exude confidence and sexuality, THAT makes you hot no matter what your flavor is.
hotness is a sex thing. not a pretty thing. Hot is someone you want to sleeop with...sometimes you don't even know why.
and that happens at any weight.

Re: Spinoff to Moment of Truth Post
As a former "BIG" girl, I will have to say...probably not. I say this because while my perception of myself at one point or another might have been that I really looked good (or at least not that bad), pictures don't lie. I can't even look at 3/4 of the pictures of myself during the heaviest years of my life (which essentially cut's me from my daughter's early years) because I can't stomach the image. That's not to say that larger men/women aren't attractive, because I believe some (if not most) are...but it really depends on inner attitude and the ability to carry your outer self well (no tight fitting clothes, etc.). Schlubs come in all sizes. HOT can often be a mentality and if you've got it, work it.
As a smaller girl, I still don't consider myself "HOT". Not my mentality so I can't play it off

I agree absolutely.
If you take care of yourself- grooming wise, dress nicvely, carry yourself with confidence, etc.- then size matters less.
I feel ilke it's harder for heavy people to feel that confident, though- which is a shame.

Re: Spinoff to Moment of Truth Post
hell yeah----i'm fat and SEXY!
like someone said--its all about confidence. i know girls half my size who are gorgeous but think they are not---and therefore they don't exude that confidence and it can affect how others see you. i'm a plus sized lady and i have never had a problem finding a date.  i just never let my size get the best of me, and be confident in the person that i am.
now i'm sure others might not feel this way and just think that overweight people are automatically not attractive---to each their own. but i am happy with who i am....and that is what matters!

THIS is a drama thread? Or another thread"? If you're referring to this one I do not see how this is drama

This is basically how I feel.....I am not quite plus size but definitely not "thin" and i also have never had trouble finding a date. Well now I can't accept any because I am married but the opportunity arises every now and again

well if were at the bar and someone wants to buy me a drink---even with the ring on---it sure does make me smile.
DH says if a guy wants to buy me a drink and hes stepped away for a minute--by all means i should accept it--cause its freeeeeeeee.

Totally agree. I don't think "hotness" has anything to do with what you look like but rather how you carry yourself and what you exude.

Re: Spinoff to Moment of Truth Post
Absolutely!!!
I was a size 3 when I met my DH, and put on a lot of weight over the years...I was up to a size 14
Now I am down to an 8-10, and DH always tells me he prefers me with "some meat" on me
He always says a woman should have curves

Where?
To answer the OP - ABSOLUTELY!!! There's nothing to even discuss, IMO. It's a simple yes.

One of my favorite books with I was younger was called "My Beautiful Fat Friend"
I totally know people who are "technically" overweight and damn sexy.
