    You're not missing anything. Translating, he's saying "no fatties" and trying to defuse that potential bomb by claiming most men want the same thing as him. Harsh? I say fair translation ... he's welcome to come here and offer his rebuttal 😄 - Posted from rhpmobile

    In my mind at least and one of those FWIW sort of things... hopefully ''most men'' have learned to appreciate the person well ahead of many of the other quantifications that can come in to attempting to make a selection in such a vacuous atmosphere as this site and/or the 'net in general. You've done well, LL... one less person/profile that you have to consider with ''an opinion'' that is definitely non-sequitur.

    Quoting 'Willow_1' Like the majority of women on here, I prefer men who arent total twats. ..out of my nose! Thanks, Willow... a complete idiot has more moving parts than a partial idiot and even with my ''limited experience'' can't even imagine what may constitute a total twat? Jearsus... that's worse than being a ''dickhead'', right? ... best always!

    this man have put his preference for 'slim and average sized woman'. I dont have an issue with that as we all have a preferences and I have personally listed mine on my profile. What I think is offensive though is his insulting a whole section of women by making them feel unwanted and scorned by the 'majority of men' phase. Dear me. The last time I checked the ABS questionaire, such question was not on the list. Lol. So maybe the chat among his mates at the local pub is what he based his 'majority' count on? Meh.!! Bullet dodged my dear and he has made it easier for us women to make a decision. Lucky for all women of all shapes and sizes. Don't sweat it.

    Quoting 'mangocouple' I like all sizes. All sexy to me. But there are also many profiles here where the females say no over weight men - Posted from rhpmobile As per my prev post, nothing wrong with people stating their preference. Some people prefer slim people, some prefer curvy, some people love large women, short or tall, some prefer only caucasians or Asians or Black... whatever. That is the way it is. In RHP and the real world. Again, the offensive part is to ostracize and shame a section of the community by saying something like the 'majority of men prefer slim or average women'. That was totally unnecessary and mean spirited. IMHO.

    I don't know about the majority of men, but I disagree with that statement. I have a similar statement on my profile expressing what I find more attractive, but I don't try and hide behind all the other men to justify it. On average I find the larger ladies to be sexier, and I acknowledge that is my personal preference. Would be a boring world if everyone was the same and wanted the same thing.

    I'm quite curious to know what everyone here thinks of what I have written in my profile: "Lastly we get to the "what I'm not looking for" where you dread to see one of your traits listed!While I'm not the most fit/healthy individual I prefer women who are not overweight.I enjoy my kissing and therefore don't look too favourably on heavy smokers.It almost goes without saying but good hygiene is a must have!" Would you remove it? Would you change it? If it bothers you, what about it does? Am I an asshole for writing/thinking this?

Now on the other hand Ive seen PLENTY of female profiles that state their likes, dislikes and preferences,fair enough to but some are so outrageously specific that its a friggin wonder how they hook up with anyone at all IE:Must have a 9"+ penis, with the stamina of porn star and be over 6 foot tall with no facial hair and have a professionally manicured pubic region also be no older than 37 and a half with a tight taut tattooed torso (no tribal, yewwww) MUST have a GSOH, manners and be single.That would have to be the male equivalent of a unicorn hahah

    It's not really such a big deal. Some are a lot less tactful (women included). I don't think his remarks are actually far off the mark. Much the same as much of the women here prefer ripped to average bodies. Many state fit in an attempt to circumvent the fact they don't want overweight or plus size people. It's just as transparent. Sure he could've worded it better, but he got his point across anyhow. Most of the time it's those excluded who take offence at such wording, but you gotta have a thick skin on rhp as tact is lacking in pretty much every corner in one form or another. Believe me, we've got some very blunt replies in our time here.

    Sadly, in my personal experiences, only the Caucasian Australians would agree that size 14 is the average size of women. In some (if not all) Asian cultures, women who are sized above 10 are not slim! The majority of Asian men that I know, would think of women who are sized 12 as chubby, and any sizes above 12 are fat! Ridiculous concept I know! - Posted from rhpmobile

So maybe the chat among his mates at the local pub is what he based his 'majority' count on? oh come on, it doesn't need to be in the ABS, it is a fairly well established fact through peer reviewed research. Are you seriously suggesting that 'most men' don't? I suspect if 'most' didn't, then mainstream swimsuit models and women featured in majority of other non-niche publications targeting males would look quite different. (And even if it was a question in the census - what people actually look at/go for is a better indicator than self-reported preference anyway)

    I get that he has a preference for what he finds attractive as do women on here. Hell we aren't addonas or Julia Roberts. My personal preference is a woman with curves and all the marks on her body that make her who she is!! That includes natural boob's and no to bolt on's. I love woman minimum size 12!! - Posted from rhpmobile

Ridiculous concept I know! - Posted from rhpmobile sweetgem, that is so true! Back in my home country, I would be considered "obese" to "morbidly obese"! When I packed on the pounds because I had to go on medication that messed with my body, I went from "average" and attractive, to fat and viewed upon with disgust. It is worse in Asia where slim and willowy is preferred and where average is tolerated. It took me a few years after arriving in Australia to realise that hey, I am actually not considered obese to morbidly obese here! :D Initially, I disregarded my Aussie friends' comments because I felt that they were just being nice and polite. But I keep getting the same remarks by so many people that I've finally come to realise that "average" is different here and most Aussies are not so narrow-minded as to condemn you just because you aren't Ms Body Beautiful! That is such a liberating feeling! Immediately, it felt as if a weight I had been carrying for years had been lifted and I can stretch my wings and fly! :D All said, I agree with LilyOrchid - we all have preferences and those of us who are specific in declaring that are simply not wanting to waste time. We know what turns us on and what repulses us and it's not such a bad thing to be frank about that. However, like Lily stated too, to shame an entire category of people by insinuating that "the majority" felt the same way, is not tactful. I'm not sure that his motive was to make people feel bad though because he might not have put too much thought into it when he was writing it. I am all for acceptance of one's body and cultivating a healthy self-esteem but we should never "endorse" obesity for health reasons. Celebrate beautiful personalities and characters regardless of body size, but never "endorse" a high percentage of fat in the body because that is simply unhealthy. We have to adopt a factual, objective view towards this - obesity is not shameful, but we have to realise that it is not indicative of healthy lifestyles, which then has a huge impact on the state of health of the people involved and the healthcare costs of the country as a whole. I am not proud of the fact that I'm carrying extra weight and I am determined to attain a healthier and fitter body. If we eat more, make bad diet choices and lead a sedantary lifestyle, or if we take certain medications or fall ill, we might end up fatter. We shouldn't allow ourselves to wallow in the pit of shame because of that, but the better and more positive thing to do, IMO only, is to decide to do something about it so that we can become healthier and fitter. I've been average before and much fitter, and I've also been obese. I much prefer to be average, tbh, because I feel healthier and more radiant and beautiful compared to how I felt at my heaviest. I shall NEVER want to return to that state again, ever! To me, it's more about the attitude and lifestyle choices that are unattractive - if one knows that they are trapped in an unhealthy state, and instead of grabbing the bull by the balls... oops, pardon my mind being in the gutter... by the horns, I mean :P ... and doing something to remedy the situation, they instead declare that nothing's wrong and endorse the state of obesity and choose to remain unfit and unhealthy, then that's unattractive. Just to reinforce again that it's all about the attitude, I have a deeper respect for people who were once obese, but who have since lost massive amounts of weight due to sheer determination to become healthier and fitter than for those who are naturally (genetically) endowed with a high metabolism and a slimmer physique. So, for those of us who are tipping the scales, we can turn things around in our favour! I am -13kgs since last year, and I have -7kgs more to go before year's end. I did it my way, by listening to what works for my body, and what doesn't. Mainly, I decided to become healthier and fitter and became more mindful about what I put into my mouth...er... get your minds out of the gutter, I'm talking about food and drinks! LOL!!! :P Let's all encourage a healthier lifestyle and better eating choices all round! Do I find an obese man sexy? No. Do I find an obese man who has radically modified his diet and is on an exercise regimen sexy? Hell, yeah! ;) An ex bf carried a huge flap of skin on his abdomen from losing 20+kgs. He was conscious of it but to me, that is something that ought to be viewed with pride because he had achieved something that is very hard to attain.

I dont really give 2 hoots one way or another what one puts on an obscure profile on a mediocre hook up site to be quite honest.If I did Id be an overly self conscious blubbering wreck constantly reaching for the valium and forever worrying about measuring up to the unrealistic expectations and demands of so many profiles found around here. As for him speaking up for others, even if it was an untruth they are just words, his words written by him, a random individual looking for sex on a sex site with slim girls, not some mystical guru with words of wisdom carved for eternity into stone in bold sanskrit that should be taken as gospel.Its all about perspective and seeing things for what they are.Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our lives. hahahPs I always behave :p

    Quoting 'Summersolstice' You don't think the need for the added "like the majority of men" is rather defensive sounding? What's the need? That's like me saying you're too boyish looking for me*, and "I'm not the only one who thinks so". Why the need to point that out? *Hell no. but I was sporting 3 weeks of growth, surely it could only be described as a "luxurious exhibition of rugged manliness", no? ;) I was only addressing lilyorchid's comment suggesting that his 'majority' claim has no real basis, not whether it was defensive or somehow shaming people who don't fit that description (I'm a bit tired of everything* being a 'shaming' of some sort or another) * not literally everything, 'everything' as used in this sense was hyperbole ^^ use of 'hyperbole' not intended to shame or exclude those unfamiliar with the word or usage ## this should not be construed as a supporting statement that those unfamiliar with the aforementioned term should feel shamed for unfamiliarity with said term :p

    So what your saying is because its only a comment on an obscure, some would say, redundant little site we should just laugh and move on? In saying that, Im wondering why you have replied so vehemently to my comment?? Could it be because thats what the forums are all about?? Voicing ideas and opinions? My other point is, if we all just let these "comments " slide they become the norm and not the exception. I think those that feel the need to justify such a comment probably come under the umbrella of "most men.."

I think those that feel the need to justify such a comment probably come under the umbrella of "most men.." Hmmm now look whos throwing stones. Please define "most men" and as I didnt read all of the replies I didnt see any posts that I read justifying his comment, did "most men.." who responded justify it? Im confused here? I personally dont give a rats arse whether I fit some narcissists opinion of what is the norm but lots of people do 😊 I wouldnt class him as a woman hater just because of what he had in his profile lol
