Different guys have different preferences regarding women's heights. Personally, I generally find unusually tall and unusually short women attractive. (Average-height women are O.K.) I think a unique height just serves to set a woman apart from the rest, not to make her more or less attractive.

As far as body composition goes, it is well known that most men prefer leaner women. I can appreciate anything from very thin and toned (but not anorexic, no ribs showing) to a little overweight with a curvy, well-proportioned figure. Some other men opt for severely skinny ladies, whereas others can't resist hugely obese mates. I imagine there is also a segment of men who enjoy larger, muscular women, although I don't hear about this group as much.

Regardless of your body type, I'm sure there's someone out there for you. Don't fret if a few people reject or tease you. Rest assured that contrary to popular belief, not all men seek the same body type, so no matter how insecure some of you may be, there are men out there who like you the way you are.

lunasol75, I've posted a reply to your introduction in the newbie thread.

eta: *deep breath* what is with the animosity? noone knows that lunasol75 is a troll in sheep's clothing, could you not have given her the benefit of the doubt for a post? there was no need to be so hostile and she certainly did not deserve to be called an asshole, noone on this board does, can't we treat each other with respect?

As for her points, I think there is good discussion to be had there. As a UK size 16 I can still see that "skinny" girls get shit from the media too - nicole richie, victoria beckham, lynsey lohan anyone? they are attacked for being too thin, for looking anorexic, for being poor role models for impressionable girls but if, like Britney, a celebrity puts on some weight they are slammed for not taking care of themselves and letting themselves go. Women in the media cannot win, the body image of woman is constantly receiving blows.
