I even got thrown out just about, of Victoria's Secret after being told the article of clothing "would not stretch enough to fit you"
Hearing that doesn't surprise me one bit. I've had other people tell me that exact same thing. The lady telling you may not be outright rude, but they give you a certain look at seems to say "Scum! How DARE you come in here and stand beside our merchandise? You're making it look bad!" Try not to take it too personally (yes, I do know it's an outrage), it's obviously a problem with that company's customer service policy.

I like both my males and females to have weight on them, chubby even. I don't like skinny or scrawny and I dont want to see any ribs sticking thru  With that said I also like them to be on the tall side, I'm 5 ft 8 so taller than that.
I think its SEXY

Ouch. The way I'm built, I carry all of my weight on my lower body. I was 20+ pounds overweight in high school and you could still see a few ribs. I'm hoping that enough upperbody exercise will help cover those this time as I'm losing the extra pounds.

I can't say I prefer over weight or not because I think pounds are stupid way to measure someone's health and value.
I do know that skinny is a turn-off to me cause all I can do is look and think "I might break that" and then I can't be interested at all.
There may not be as much to smack around, but I doubt if every thin female is a weakling. I have a small frame, but I'm very capable of carrying a good amount of long, lean muscle on it. I out-performed all the "skinny" girls in school because I am strong, not because I was really "bigger".
However, I have also seen heavier girls out-do skinny ones in strength. If a 90 pound girl can't do a single chin-up, she has a problem. If a 150 pound girl can do three chin-ups, good for her! She's lifting more weight and doing a better job of it. I just happen to fall in the middle.

It's not people having preferences that is the problem. The problem is when people "hate" for being fat or skinny or whatever. They may not have any knowledge of the person as a person, other than making a judgment based on their size alone. All fat people are lazy. All skinny people must be on drugs.
Yes, I am overweight. Like a lot of others here, I wear a 16 and depending on the cut, sometimes an 18. But that doesn't mean that I don't have value as a person, that I'm not a sexual or sexy woman, I am. It doesn't mean I'm a slob, it doesn't mean that I'm stupid, I'm far from it. I do resent people that will decide I'm not worth knowing, in some cases, not worth having a conversation with, because of my size. But then again, if that's how they think, then I haven't lost a damn thing, have I?
Some overweight people are lazy and some skinny people are drug abusers; BUT not all overweight people are lazy and not all skinny people are drug abusers. (I only got a "C" in my logic class, so I hope I got that right). Basically A doesn't equal B.
Everything depends on the individual. Their body chemistry, their mindset, their general physical build, health problems, etc.
For me, personally, I'm small boned and not even 5'4". I know that muscle weighs more than fat, but even in my BEST shape I doubt I'd reach 130 pounds. Okay, so I only weigh around 125 right now. Big deal. I also have pooches and bulges that I don't like. I'm not in the kind of athletic shape that I want to be, yet. For me, sleek and fit isn't just a look, it's what I want to BE. I intend to be a hard-working field biologist as soon as I get the opportunity. I have to be able to climb over a boulder or fight the current of a swollen stream. To have the kind of muscle I need and to be that physically active all the time will probably negate any excess flesh I may have. And that's fine by me. It's the lifestyle I desire most.
The down side? I have tiny breasts. Always have. Even when my weight was up to 142 and I was legitimately considered chubby, they were small. I MIGHT reach a B cup if I ever have kids, but that isn't in my plans. SO, I've had to deal with curvy women saying behind my back as I pass by...
"Was that a boy or a girl?"
C'mon now! OUCH!
Fat or skinny. Weight is a double-edged sword that cuts equally deeply both ways.
So an individual should be judge for who they are, not what they look like.

p.s. - Some of my comments were made because it looked like this thread was slamming non-overweight people somewhat. HOWEVER, I do acknowledge and accept that everyone has their own preferences and sexual attractions. That's perfectly fine! This post was not intended to attack anyone or start a flame war or even a heavy debate. I was just adding my own 2 cents, as usual. =^.^=

I've been called skinny by people looking for larger breasts or larger whatever. That's okay.
