'Super thin' Women
We are all familiar with the studies that show heavier women feel worse after seeing images of the ‘thin-ideal’ women portrayed on television and in magazines. However, a new study shows that even women at low weights are affected by this. It was concluded that their satisfaction levels with regard to themselves turned low after viewing ‘super-thin’ models over the magazine covers.
How many of you ladies feel bad after seeing super thin women?? Men can also give your views on super thin women. Do you think they look beautiful/attractive?
They don’t make me uncomfortable…I feel that nothing suits them.. they don’t look good in any dress.
...Actually, sadly, in this case it is. :(
WWhen people overdo something it really gets disgusting, specially when there is a high value associated with personality today... Cant really assess the impact.....
I used to be supper skinny like this lollipop girls and i liked it i thought i look great! but now looking back with the old pictures i look so ugly!!! i cant believe i was that thin!! i was so scared to gain weight before bcoz of my job, most of the girls that i worked with was really thin, and believe it or not we are not allowed to gain weight we have to maintain the weight when we first join taht management its really ridiculous!!! thank God i left that job i can eat anything i want and i love my body now....
Make sure to include a photo with your CV. The rest of your CV maybe crap but the photo may help you. I heard this actually works in the East. At least in America they try to guess from your name. I had one white guy during an interview actually tell me they thought I was South East Asian.
lol at east it got me the door....
Man I wonder thinking about my grandfather's potbelly if they ever worried about images the way most people nowdays do. Where would many of us be if our parents and grandparents were so worried about staying a size 2 their whole life. Man would I miss my siblings and my aunts/uncles.

We all do look for the perfect one. But what are the ideal things that you think that it makes that person perfect? Sometimes we keep on running and never stop unless the race is over. What is the point of continuing the run then? Finding a perfect person is easy, but you can think of that one or make him/her perfect. How? When you learn how to love and live with his/her disadvantages then he/she will become the right perfect person for you.
There is nothing perfect, but only God.
Love is the invention of loose western women who are college students infatuated with pedophiles that pose for playboy.
ROFL Rayyz! I'm sure it's probably someone's real email addy, but not mine. Why don't you email it and see what response you get. :D

I wonder how many PM's I'll get from that post!
Love was invented in the early 1980s by cynical western manipulators who climbed Everest in a Kayak. They invented it to sell Valentines cards and other ridiculous western cynical inventions. Love sucks.

I'd rather be thin and make a considerable efford to get to my ideal weight. I don't see what's wrong with that. I don't feel confortable or pretty or confident carrying extra weight, a size 6 suits me best, much better than 10 or 12... in fact I feel very self concious about my shape.
BUt plastic boobs, nooooo way.
I'm available for a TEST DRIVE if u'd like :)
U seem to have wacked us yet another one ur SILLY WILLY POSTS U "horny little honey". Hehee !!! I guess tht was the highlight of today....

Well I figure every guy is out there looking for the perfect girl, why can't I go and look for the perfect guy huh? Someday I will find him. :P
Where can you find such a man? Buff, Dump and submissive? Are you sure that you are looking for a man and not a sheep? :). And also know how to cook? :). I can cook, but I'm not dump and buff, but kind of submissive as well as my wife will be like that too. If we love each other then there should be no problems and if there are, everything can be solved.
Problems were there to let people know the real value of their relations.
Rayyz please email your CV to [email protected]. Make sure there are pictures with that. ;)
No ooo, that's what the guy I'm cheating on him with does. They need sepearate chores. LOL. ;)
One last before I leave. LOL. I can't stop laughing on this.

I want my men, buff, dumb and submissive. :P And they'd better be able to go all night long and cook me breakfast in the morning.
I don't want more than a woman who can understand me and i can understand her. Whatever beauty is everyone looking for mostly these days is nothing but a shallow of a hollow.
Qd06, LOL … I didn't mean lie.
You know what they say? Never ask a question if you don't like the answer :D
Honey,
Does this dress make me look fat? No darling it makes you look like a size one :-) Arrrrgggh
Act your age not your shoe size
But that's exactly what I was speaking about: an occasional compliment : )
ooo,
It is a difference between an occasional compliment and having to say honey you look so beautiful every five minutes. Get real. I have seen so many who need self esteem life support. If not why would you need plastic surgeons or classify an eating disorder as a psychiatric disease.
While we are talking the same issues go for men. Everyone can't have a six pack, be six feet tall, blonde hair, blue eyes, deep baritone voice. I think the tele and advertising has driven these false images of beauty too much. I commented on this when I went to a wedding in Pakistan. It amazed me how many women were wearing too much powder makeup to make their faces look white. They actually looked like clowns but thats another story... I told my wife, I don't hate makeup but I hate when people use it not to accentuate their natural beauty but to fit into some elses image of beauty. The same way I hate seeing some white people so tanned or come from a tanning bed that they looked orange or fried.
Act your age not your shoe size
I totally agree …little meat on the women’s bones is very important and very sexy. Well, it would be even nicer if she is voluptuous that kinda girl but what I don’t like (actually I hate it) is the plastic boobs.. They don’t attract me at all. In fact, they turn me off.
Just an opinion
Cheers,
Mapleleaf
Qd06, I would argue that complimenting your woman on occasion is never wasted time, even if she doesn’t need it for her self esteem ;)
Bro, I'm glad you're not one amongst the 'most' I've mentioned :) Atleast one person has been honest in raising his hand and said 'I don't cheat'.
If you are the first person to do so, I'd be glad to say I am right after you!
P.s. His wife reads all his posts on QL!

It's really a sad fact about men, but im glad that I'm not one of these disgusting men, I would never cheat on my wife. I wish more men were like me.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right and the other is husband !
In such cases men have affairs or cheat in other words! :)
I guess even if you end up with the perfect one you've been looking for, there are tendencies from most men to still look out for someone else. I've gotta admit, no matter how many here deny it, most men would cheat if they get an opportunity to do so, as long as the news doesn't reach their partner's ears.
Most men are not satisfied with one, yet they wouldn't really appreciate their women doing the same!
Which raises another question, how many are doing that already? :P

Han,
I had the biggest problem because beauty to me comes in various shades ,colors, sizes. When I was younger and dated in the US. I never really got into the set type thing. I dated large women ( who were sexier than any super model), super models types, regular, skinny, long hair, short hair, white, black, latino, dark skinned, wheatish(Desi term), light skinned. The ladies I like the most are the ones who loved themselves no matter their physical makeup. It made it easier to be around them. I don't ever remember getting the dreaded question "how do I look". Its easier to love someone who loves themselve. You don't have to spend a lot of wasted time trying to boost their ego and self esteem.
Act your age not your shoe size
Hell yeh han... I've always had girlfriends matching up to my idea of the ideal pin ups... it's a different thing that their intellect didn't compete with mine... hence they didn't stay long... lol!
For the second part of your question, I ended up with something similar to what I chased... and what I look for in a woman.
For the third part, I still look at other women (openly) and appreciate beauty... I get whacked later is another story altogether... lol!!!

I used to think that I had a "type" (skinny, dark haired and dark skinned) but the two in my life that really knocked me off my feet were neither. Does that make me less shallow or more shallow?
had better live as we think, otherwise we shall end up by thinking as we lived. - Paul Bourget
since we have mentioned playboy a quick question for the men.
whethere you like skinny or meaty...do you prefer the similar physical attributes of those magazine pin-up gals in your woman?
what if you end up in a permanent relationship with the exact opposite in physical beauty?
Does it then matter what your earlier preferance has always been?
Would you secretly/openly look at women matching your sense of beauty and long for what you dont have?

I never recall being treated like a commodity till I moved to Korea, where suddenly I was treated like I was a "dime a dozen" something to be bought at any price, then tossed away when finished with. You would think that with the lack of women here in Qatar that we might be treated a bit better, but if anything the attitude of treating women like objects is a thousand times worse. :(
Gypsy,
Cynical. Men look Men chase skirt it just the fact of what they will do when they catch it. I myself prefer someone I can talk to also. I also try to go by the motto why look at something I can't afford to buy. I am not a big fan of window shopping. sorry for the analogy ladies but in reality you do get treated like merchandise at times otherwise why would Gypsy-gal posted this.

ok guys. Do they really float? Can they be registered as safety devices? If so no need for a life vest when boating. Sorry Gypsy for hijacking but....

:-) Truth you are funny the DOHAFORD wives. The expats as well as the locals/other middle easterners/Asians.
Act your age not your shoe size
You're probably talking to the most cynical girl in the world when it comes to believing that any man is caring truth (no offence meant at all). I just think that the ones who aren't out chasing skirt are the ones who don't think they stand a chance at catching it.
women do feel under pressure to make themselves look good and be the ideal. Thats part of being a women!! Women feel under pressure to look good on the outside, to be attractive, to not be overweight!! And when men start comparing us to playboy and all sorts we have no hope!!
There for you are doing it for yourself, if a man says to you your getting fat etc then he isnt very caring in the first place.
If you are getting nips and tucks because of that then it is for yourself as you want to keep the man and you want to secure a future with the man.
Granted I agree there is a lot of pressure on women these days to be the Barbie doll (TM) look a like inclusive of the plastic attachments and matching accessories.
But do you honestly believe men want to find a woman that looks exactly like every other one??
We came we saw we were Qatarized
The answer to that is in a mathematical sense - 1.6
Trust me its true, i watched a documentary once that got the best looking people (as voted by the readers etc lol) and took measurements of the facial structure and the commonality was the factor 1.6!!! how odd that we can put a number to beauty.
The ideal to me of female beauty is that which is inside, if your a kind person inside then to me that is beautiful above and beyond a nose job and botox injections (with blonde bobbed hair, white pedal pushers, blue top and access to your husbands bank account ha ha ha ha ha help me the Dohaford wives are coming)
We came we saw we were Qatarized
We don't get the nips and tucks or go on the diets for ourselves though, we go on them because men are unhappy with our bodies. Here especially if you don't stay good looking and attractive the guy will ditch you for another, younger woman.
I like women no matter the size. The biggest thing is being healthy, exercising and loving the natural you. I have seen ultra thin women who starve themselves but are unhealthy as well as overweight women who are unhealthy.
The most important thing though is that you like your body. Its natural things will get wider, things will sag, embrace it don't run from it. All you have to do is tone it up. lol
Truth I agree. Man the pain that women go through for self pleasure (SARCASM) :-). I have heard the line too often I'm not doing it to get attention from men, I am doing it to make myself feel better. I guess because Qatar is so small but it seems as if a lot of the women here have had some work done or at least the botox shots.
Act your age not your shoe size
Well here is a question then, what is the ideal of female beauty? Is there one?
Mate I fully understand some peoples metabolic rates are higher than others and the mars bar diet was a joke.....bit like telling fat people to get off the McDonalds diet.
We came we saw we were Qatarized
Truth dude, my wife eats more than me and is still a size 6, and i aint small! some people just have a naturally superfast metabolism.
I had a good laugh at "Yep the Stepford Wives films (both original and updated) were terrible, however the cast has moved over to Doha and act exactly as they did in the film"...
Still lmao!
------------------------------------------------------------
Man's best Friend - Miss Palm and her 5 Sisters

I can't possibly eat more mars bars then I do now Truth! I just don't gain weight.
I agree with your comments, back in the 80's we had real women gracing the covers of things I was to young to be looking at (Sam Fox, Linda Lusardi) full of women that hadnt had tubes rammed into them to remove fat, bits of plastic shoved into places to enhance areas etc etc etc.
Yep the Stepford Wives films (both original and updated) were terrible, however the cast has moved over to Doha and act exactly as they did in the film.....apart from you couldnt swipe your ATM card on them and get cash from the mouth....they do the opposite swipe the husbands ATM card and spend spend spend.
Gypsy.....get on the Mars bar diet girl, not that I have a clue what size 6 is....as for you being blonde should I talk slower??? LOL (only kidding)
We came we saw we were Qatarized
I dig skinny chicks.

Excuse me, you know some of us are a size 6 naturally. (Christ knows it's not cause I don't eat) :( And some of us are blonde naturally too. :(
The stepford wives was one of the stupidest movies I ever saw... what a whole lotta crap.

------------------------------------------------------------
Women who are to thin really dont do it for me, nor do plastic boobs for that matter.
The world is obsessed with looking like a barbie doll, most of the western expat women in Doha all look the same i.e. blonde bobed hair, wearing pedal pushers and a blue top....the Stepford Wives (you know the type nothing better to do other than do lunch and have cups of tea with friends and basically discuss other people behind their backs).
As for stick insect women, it is NOT womanly, no curves, no chest, no 4rse....NO POINT!!!
We came we saw we were Qatarized
I hope we aren't setting ourselves up for another "Playboy" discussion. LOL Cutesrk/Sputnik will lose his mind!! LOL
Oh, ok. You're talking pre plastic boobs trashy playboy and penthouse. I understand.
Gypsy... that's why I said the 'Playboy' & 'Penthouse' mags that I "had"... I'm talkin old school here...
and oh yeh... plastic boobs... yesh!!!! whoever likes that?
------------------------------------------------------------
Man's best Friend - Miss Palm and her 5 Sisters
------------------------------------------------------------
No Colt, the playboy and penthouse magazines have girls with big plastic boobs! And those girls are probably all a size 2 if not 0.
Well the 'Playboy' & 'Penthouse' mags that I had didn't have any super-thin women... pretty much on the contrary... lol!!!
I don't think I drooled over any other...
------------------------------------------------------------
Man's best Friend - Miss Palm and her 5 Sisters
------------------------------------------------------------
The question remains though, if nobody prefers these super this women, why are they all we see in magazines and on TV? Men say they prefer a girl who has a little meat on her bones, but that's not who they are drooling over in magazines.
Super thin... no.. eeowww, nothing to hold on to.
I like my women with some meat please... more like the Kate Winslet (in titanic) types...
------------------------------------------------------------
Need some cushion for a good pushin... lmao!
------------------------------------------------------------
about the new size zero its going to get much worse. One in ten girls is affected by an eating disorder and these girls are getting younger each year. Its very sad and upsetting for me.
With the media and press being obsessed with small sizes anyone who is above a size ten i bet feels like they are far from perfect!!! If people stopped putting such emphasis on outer beauty and concentrte on inner beauty and we would all be much happier!
me im a size ten, have been a size six to eight before and a size sixteen to eighteen, me and mu husband much prefer me with a bit of meat on rather thann the skinny size eight i once was!
hey gypsy gal...
i totally agree vit vat u say.....dese "ally mcbeal clone" look as if dey hv never had a decent meal in dere lives...n i always wonder if its worth it to go to so much trouble...n then finally end up lookin like a stick.....i mean curves r vat describe a woman's body.....thts ven d dresses look better on dem....but d worst part is tht d young girls get it in2 dere heads tht dey wud b more attractive if det got wafer thin.....
so sad ven u think abt it....

Of a song from 1977;
Whole Lotta Rosie
If a guy says he likes the ‘ally mcbeal’ look then it sends off alarm bells to me.
That is not a women’s body. They look like whippets - all scrawny
sometimes I try on clothes and think who designed this – a man who has never touched a women’s body? I have hips – I have curves – I am not a stick.
I am happy with my figure and of course it could be better but I am not prepared to go under the knife to make it so.
Also please note men…. the onus just isn’t on the girls to look good.
The thought a big wobbly hairy belly makes me feel sick.
