all we ever hear is women moaning about the wish to become slimmer

men and women - what size is too
fat,( clothes size ie 24 , 10 , 12 etc)

what size is too slim ?>

and what do u prefer?

I think you will find that most men (myself included) like curves on women. Those stick models you see on the catwalk are not sexy at all. Why do fashion designers thing us guys like women like that?

I don't think it matters. What matters is how you feel in yourself...

A 6 is too fat on me, but that means nothing.

My friends are all gorgeous and are 10, 12, 14+

It's impossible to judge!

too fat? dont you mean too big?

there is no fat whatsover in a size 6

depends on where the "fat" is, Cazzz. I have a friend who's happy being a size 6, apart from moaning about her big thighs. She's small though, and being much larger wouldn't look right on her.

[cazzz1975]

that just sounds like a natural body shape, not necessarily fat, to someone else's perspective they may not see that her legs are unnaturally out of sequence for the rest of her

TTG, those thin models aren't chosen because designers think blokes fancy them, they're chosen because most designers agree their creations hang better on women that size and shape.

What we all regard as too slim or too fat depends on the individual. My own tastes have changed - I used to be attracted to biggish curvy women; to an extent I still am but nowadays much prefer women with 'boyish' figures.

But yes there is too much focus on appearance; I actually find it a turn-off to see women who have clearly spent ages getting themselves ready
