What exactly is a curvy woman?
JohnSmith69
layin low but staying high
But I'm a newbie at dating civilians and I'm confused. She has only face and upper body pictures. Her profile says her body is "curvy." Her profile says "I don't expect you to be some buff fit man. I'm no size 2. The dad body is the new thing."
What exactly is curvy? Is it a nice way of saying fat? Is this woman fat? From her upper body pics she's clearly not petite but it doesn't scream fat either. I'm so confused.
Got something to say?

It's a broad and vague term.
Younger women try this a lot not sure about older women, i am early 30's and see it a lot when i look at profiles and it is a sign to move past that profile.
Send pictures of her daughter.
I agree. I simply don't want to be tricked into lowering them too far.
Hey if your system is deemed effective, maybe you can charge for it and recoup some of that money you've blown on DS1.

I am still amazed women do this. I have been looking at a woman who is pretty in her pics, for a 45-year-old. But she's got pictures of herself next to her GORGEOUS 19-year-old daughter, and daughter is wearing a pretty tight dress. I think I look decent enough in pics by myself, but if I were standing next to a 19-year-old male model, I'd barely even look human. You're just not going to look good right next to your gorgeous or handsome 19-year-old daughter or son respectively. Stupidest thing in the world to include those types of pics.

Say no more. That's all I need to see to know that there's a 95% chance she's fat. I've completely stopped contacting or responding to contact from any woman who does not include a full body pic that is from a representative angle (that is, not a facebook-style overhead slimming pic). It's really closer to 100% that women who do that are not "curvy" (curvy women like showing off their curves) but chubby, or BBW, or something else.

Generally from a man’s POV is what larry described; but many women use-it as a “little while lie” (with the emphasis not on little) to mean at least a few lbs overweight if not kinda fat – it may not be much of an issue for a PL like me whom likes some meant on dem bones; but if one is a spinner connoisseur a woman describing herself “curvy” would be fat to the spinner-lover.

a) hey – this is kinda how I look – like my hot daughter but just a bit older
b) or they are so desperate they put the daughter’s pic as a tease so PLs can think they may actually have a shot w/ the daughter if they get w/ them – unlikely but you never know
I don't think it's this. I'd think even the most deluded person can see how bad they look next to their super beautiful or handsome, 20-ish year old daughter or son. I think it's more along the lines of, either consciously or subconsciously, their prime directive is to show off their child, even when the entire point of a dating profile is to sell yourself.

I don't think anyone would do this consciously ... but subconsciously, could they be trying to use their daughter to lure men in, the way men use puppies? I dunno. I only got a C- in Psychology 101, if I'd gotten a B, maybe I'd understand it all better.
There's one profile I saw just a few weeks ago, she's a fairly nice looking woman. She's only got 3 pics. One is a slightly blurry close-up of her face... okay, that's fine. Second is one of her and her cute 13ish (guessing) year old daughter, just their faces, but the daughter is center frame, whereas mom's face is behind her daughter and far left frame, and harder to see. Uh... huh, okay, I might question exactly who is supposed to be front and center of this profile, but whatever. Third picture: her and her daughter, full body shot, mom is wearing a loose slightly-frumpy long dress and very frumpy sweater, daughter is in a form-fitting dress that shows clearly she's beginning to blossom. This is the point where I click on to the next profile. I don't know what the psychology here is, but whatever it is, it's fucked up. I can't imagine a normal adult male being drawn to that profile ... but someone attracted to 13-year-olds, maybe.
It's just super weird psychology, IMO. The women who do it (I have no idea if men do it with their sons, I haven't trolled male profiles) need to seriously re-think what their doing, whether or not their children should have ANY role to play in their parent's dating life or profile, etc.
I'd hate to sound mean, but most likely if she describes her body as curvy she's closer to plus size, she may still have some curves though. It really depends on a woman's honesty with herself

just found this, I encourage everyone to watch, and as many times as possible as it may not last long.
