I've listed myself as average on my profile, but just had a message from a lady suggesting I ought to say slim going by my pictures...
I'm a size 10/12 and not a twig, what do people suggest?
Thanks in advance  |

"Depends a lot on height, im 5ft 9 and would be very very slight if I were size 10.
"
I'm 5ft 3 (and a wee bit  )
I went for average because I do not have a perfect flat tummy... nearly 36 and a young child... and 16 stone of weight lost over 3 years but I've been really lucky that I don't have saggy bits |

I looked at your profile and clicked on the extra large size photo and thought you looked a size phwoaaaarrr!!!
Its all in the eye of the beholder, if people cant tel from your pictures what you are then more fool them.
Have lots of fun swinging! |

average size in uk for a woman is a size 14-16.
Dont think fab descriptions are enough, everyone has their own perception of small, average, curvy and fabulous etc.
One thing I dislike, is men decsribing themselves as curvy! Since when do men have hips, bums and boobs? Or are they thinking a beer belly, moobs and a lard arse as curvy?
I'd describe myself as fat, but sadly its not on the list. |

We tend not to take too much notice of size descriptions and rely on the photograph(s). Of course sometimes they can be misleading (or very old) but then so can the size description.
We both describe ourselves as average and anyone who's interested can decide by looking at our profile if that is indeed what we are |

You lost 16 stone? If that's not a typo then well done you. |

Do you feel average or do you feel slim? That is the only thing that matters. Those sizes that fall between two extremes and are not obviously the bounteous curves of BBW or boney svelt twiglet, I would say is down to the individual to decide. It is all a matter of taste. To some you will be a skinny minny, to others a touch porky. The only opinion that matters when it comes to calssifying body type is your own. I'd stick with average if that is what you are comfy with and if any one has a problem with that tell them to bugger off.  |

Hahaha, 32 stone of useless fat? Gone? Just like that. Good for you, i'm really impressed. My ex wife lost 8 stone over a two year period but you've doubled that. Wow! |

You are what you are. people will see you diffrently no matter what you are. I have recently been told to add VWE to my profile but i wouldnt consider myself that. I dont look at other guys and maybe i was just the biggest the woman had had before.
Personally i would say your slim any smaller i would concider skinny, i dont mind the odd wobbley bit on a woman.
