She said it's perfectly ok for a man with big woman to admire a thin woman.
What's the point of marrying someone and wishing for another?

LISTEN CAREFULLY TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY NOW

lol. . The man you will marry won't be the IDEAL dude you have always wanted! Mark my words. In terms of looks. . he may not be that which you've drooled over and dated. Marriage isn't about looks but about what's on the inside. Nothing is wrong with a man admiring a cute woman even if she's thin or thick. Nothing wrong with that at all. Infact, it is kinda sexy for a man to say " babe. . look at that gorgeous chic right there. .she's hot" Nothing is wrong with at all.
Re: Is There A Man Shortage? by Nobody: 11:17pm On Dec 08, 2008
I beg to differ.  .  .you can't MAKE a man do/feel/think anything he doesn't want to of his own volition. Unless na jazz
Its because of threads/ideologies like this one that make most women believe they have to lower their personal standards to level zero to hook a man.  .  


I agree WHOLEHEARTEDLY.

You women and Sharon (no wonder, his name is feminine  cheesy) just don't get it!

A man doesn't marry ONLY for physique!!

Being 'romantically blind'   is not the same thing as not seeing a DIFFERENCE. Your wife's boobs are 32A and you see 36D won't you know the boobs are bigger? Does that mean you don't love your wife? That is simply a fact! You can admire different things without wanting to be that thing or wanting that thing!

You women are simply misguided if you think a man will look only at physical attraction before marrying. You talk as if there is a production line of women where you can choose hottest body, smartest mind and non-irritating attitude and combine them into a wife. You take your IMPERFECT wife and LOVE her. Does that mean she doesn't have flaws? NO. Does that mean you can't ADMIRE other women? NO Does that mean she is the most beautiful? NO

Just like she may not be the smartest but you love her REGARDLESS of that. If you think you are the 'most beautiful woman' YOU ARE DELUDED. What you should value is that your husband LOVES you, not on some falsehood about being the most beautiful.

Anyone who needs to think they are the most beautiful has poor self esteem and hasn't gotten her head straight. I will NEVER marry the most beautiful woman I meet - she will definitely LOSE that beauty over time - what happens then? will I stop loving her??

debo like i said,a man might prefer a slim babe,but might one day jam orobo who carries herself like "the most beautiful woman in d world" grin that alone will make d man change his mind,i told u that my eldest brother loves dark skinned babes,he used to hate d light skinned babes,until he fell inlove wt a fair skinned and today they r married

now comparing her wt every dark skinned or still saying he admires d dark skinned till date is not right

if a man wants to admire ok,once,twice or a couple of times,but not still having d same mindset of still digging d slim shadys
if u know u r going to coninue admiring her all d time then why marry a fat woman

common
So in essence what you are saying is because a man is married to a fat woman he must NEVER admire a slim woman again.

Sweetie that's how we ladies want it to be with our men. It would be so in an ideal world. But this isn't an ideal world, and men will always be men. Men keep themselves from being dogs however by refusing to allow the temptation of a perfect female form lead them to cheat on the woman they love.

A man will forever physically admire a beautiful woman. You can take that to Barclay's. No matter what his wife looks like,he always will. But so long as his heart already belongs to another and he doesn't want to,he won't stray.

Better you start properly understanding the way the male mind works my dear. He tells you every sweet thing under the sun doesn't mean he has lost his natural male appreciation for a perfect female. Live with it.

Its his love and respect for you that keeps him from openly comparing you with another woman.

Its his love and respect for you that keeps him from straying.

Its his love and respect for you that keeps him from openly staring at another woman when he is with you.

Emphasis on RESPECT.

sweetie admiring is quite different from wanting and still prefering

its good to admire but the worst thing is admiring this particular specie of women till death takes u away,and saying u still prefer the lepas,cristalz that means d man will continue admiring the lepas till he enters his grave

and if d wife gets to know that the hubby married her personality and watever but still prefers d lepas,trust will be very far from them both

That is the key thing, but all we've heard from these people is 'if he wanted a slim woman, why not marry a slim woman' - they are defining beauty as only related to skin tone, size of breasts and waist size. The sum TOTAL of an individual makes them the most beautiful, not because they have the largest breasts or the longest legs or any other SINGLE quality. The UNIQUE COMBINATION found in your mate makes them the one you love.

Why not look for a lepacious woman?? so he should forget the 80% he has DECIDED to love and go and look for LEPA? If the man has DECIDED he can love this woman (in the end it is a decision) the story ends there - he can admire a lepa, doesn't mean he will leave his wife for that woman.

@ Stilly

It is not by force to admire, but this comes naturally to men - you keep it under control and don't dwell on every woman you see. You consciously FOCUS your attraction on your wife with WILLPOWER. When I say 'admire' I mean being able to see that something is beautiful. NOW I believe that is completely possible WITHOUT it becoming that you want to HAVE that thing/person instead of what you have.

Re: Is There A Man Shortage? by sistawoman: 11:32pm On Dec 08, 2008
I can fully understand both sides of the arguement:

Admiring someone elses body type:

I love my hubby to dealth, everyone knows that, I would not trade him for anything in the world.  But that does not stop me from getting excited when I see LL Cool J.  I admire his six pack and his big beautiful lips.  Hubby does not have a six pack or even close but i would rather be with him for a lifetime then LL Cool J for 10 mins.

Prefering someone else body type:

That is totally something different.  I would not want my husband to be with me BUT PREFER a skinny womans body.  That is disrespectful, degrading and mean.  That is called settling for the best you feel you can get.


As long as we have eyes and free will we will admire other people in society but I PREFER hands down my husband and as long as he PREFERS me over any other woman then we have no issues.  

I dont think i could be happy if i knew that all my husbands ex-girlfriends were all skinny chicks because that would say to me that PREFERS skinny girls but settled for me.

It won't be sexy few days later when u find the same woman your man is admiring on ur matrimonial bed.

debosky:

You women and Sharon (no wonder, his name is feminine  cheesy) just don't get it!

A man doesn't marry ONLY for physique!!

U are talking BULL. . . . . . .I am sick and tired of pretenders like u, hombre.
What would attract you to your pet peeve in the first place??
I can NEVER date a woman that is more than SIZE 12. . . . . If she is more warm hearted than Mother Theresa, that is her business.
So for me, the physique comes first. . . . .Other stuffs come later. It's a combination of many factors but i won't choose character over size.


Being 'romantically blind'   is not the same thing as not seeing a DIFFERENCE. Your wife's boobs are 32A and you see 36D won't you know the boobs are bigger? Does that mean you don't love your wife? That is simply a fact! You can admire different things without wanting to be that thing or wanting that thing!

What difference?? It's one thing to look at a woman(casually like u would look at a flag pole) and it's another thing to look at a woman and calculating the size of her boobs and the buzz on her bum. . . . .That alone is fornication of the heart.
If u want a FAT woman, marry a FAT woman. God has given us many varieties so choose one and stick with it.


You women are simply misguided if you think a man will look only at physical attraction before marrying.

More bull stories. . . . . .

Men look at physical attraction before marrying. . . . .We just do it in different ways but every man does.
No one marries these days without a preference(skin colour, hair colour, size, height, bust) etc.
