InactiveAnd you know what?! I was a fat porker once. Oh yeah size 16 with huge saggy tits. You know what?! I stopped feeling sorry for myself. I got my then fat arse to the gym and started making better choices. So don’t give me boddyshaming body this BS. I’ve heard it all on myself. The only person who is offended is YOU. I made the choice to hit the gym and work it off. Now I’ve got solid boobs, a tight ass and thighs and I don’t feel a single ounce sorry for those that are offended because I was there.

March 17, 2022 at 12:10 pm #114736I love how “woke” is used as a derogatory classification.
Being “woke” (aware) is a badge of honor. Yeah, he still lost.March 17, 2022 at 2:31 pm #114758Asking someone’s weight is definitely rude. Come on, at 57 years old you should know that.
If someone asked me my weight I would not respond or may block them. Not because I’m rubenesque, I show my shape in my avatar and work out daily, but I would block or not respond because I have no interest in spending time with someone who hasn’t figured out basic social mores. Not body shaming anyone is part of that, just like not being rude to wait staff is…it tells me a lot about a person and whether I want to spend more time with them.
At this age you should have figured out ways to determine size if that is an issue for you….ask for general build, use pictures to help determine….but do not ask for weight. That’s just clueless.

InactiveFrankly, I agree with the oppinion that either are irrelevant to suckling. I think when a connection is made it’s made and that is what counts.

Social media has not been around for 57 years. If I was to meet someone in real life, I could see what I cannot see in the eatherworld, and not have to ask. Pretending that “in real life” good manners, map to online good manners is fantasy. You should know that.
It is said that texting is around 30% of the communication that occurs in real life.
I do not ask for pictures, before asking for height and weight, because they can be stolen and circulated without the owner’s permission.
No one has to tell me. But if she does not, we are not a match. I respectfully inform her so, and wish her good luck.
Personally, if we are not a match, I would like to move on with my search. Wasting time is a real infraction.

InactiveAs a man I get asked my height all the time. It’s something I can’t change.
You can lose weight.
I don’t think it’s rude at all to ask someone to describe themself properly. Curvy is so ambiguous, it can mean anything from UK size 14 to size 20+.
If someone has a problem being honest about what they look like then they have confidence issues which frankly, isn’t my problem.

InactiveHell yeah Steve.
March 17, 2022 at 6:21 pm #114818I must be weird, even when I see height and weight (or even body measurements) it does not compute for me. Because you can have 5 people with the same height and weight and they all look different to me (some thinner, others curvier, some blocky, etc.). So I tend to default to pictures for rough screening and then in person meeting because even pictures can be deceiving at times. Must be because I am a visual learner. This has is drawbacks as it takes time (and on this site trust which takes more time).
I think some of reason people ask these things is because other dating/hookup sites widely provide/use this type of information and then it is expected here.
Though, I tend to treat my interactions like I do in real life which includes socially acceptable questions. I also agree it is ok to have preferences (we are all here for a particular preference), though I too am frustrated because the list of acceptable/unacceptable preferences varies from person to person so I do not voice many of my preferences.
Fyi – I believe people should treat others on the Internet the way they do in real life. Catcalling, cruel or critical statements should not be used just because you are anonymous, you can, or people are not physically present. Tolerance must be given if it is desired in return. Especially if we are looking to create a safe and open space for people to feel accepted. Otherwise these intolerant/offensive/critical interactions will drive away the very people we want to meet and connect with here.

InactiveYes and no.I would rather be rejected online than waste time meeting a rude individual in person.
Physical attraction has to be part if it!
And,I have had that happen recently with a man on here.He wasnt attracted to me on person,nor I to him after sharing height,weight and several ,if not dozens of pictures.
Again,I wished he hadn’t wasted my time to continue texting with him after I sent my stats. -
