**tallinu** speaks truth. One of the worst dates I had was a double-date with the college beauty queen. Very beautiful, very boring. She was even studying to be an accountant. ---

I like women with small breasts. I prefer them skinny with a little bit of hip, dark hair, and not a lot of makeup. But I’m not gay, and have not even the inkling of the desire to have sex with men. But the women I’ve been with tended to have a bit of meat on them. One had small breasts and she weighed 200 pounds, and we had much fun. Several times. From California to New Orleans to North Carolina. Although I prefer tiny dark-haired girls, it’s really the person inside I’m attracted to. Is there a psychological reason why I like small-breasted women? I don’t know. I remember when I was a little kid I saw my sister’s _enormous_ tits once. Maybe I just don’t want to think of having sex with my sister. Anyway… If there are any petite Doper ladies out there who like filmmaking (which I do sometimes) and flying (ditto) and want to live in the state of Washington, you know where to reach me. =;^) ---

No… it’s not repressed homosexuallity. If I wanted to suck cock I would go suck a cock. Every women I’ve ever dated had a poontang, not a cock. rande… ---

If a man were a closet homesexual, surely to god, to throw the scent off, he would date the most looky like a playboy model he could? I know I would. But then again, I would date anything with a vagina and tits :D. (so long as it ain’t too fat :() ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Rae of Dawn \* > \*\*She has this theory that men who are attracted to REALLY skinny women are in the closet about their sexuality. > \*\* Well, here is some evidence that what you say is true: I’m pretty thin - 5’7", size 4. I used to be 30 pounds thinner. When I was that thin, I went out with gay men. Closet cases, all. Hell, I lived with one for a year. That’s an N of 3 folks. However, when I was _WAY_ skinny, I also dated quite a few hard core hetros, so I think that all this proves is that 3 gay men (well, 2 gay, and one bi-sexual that prefers not to have sex with women :rolleyes: ) dig really skinny women. For the record, at my current weight, I don’t get pursued a helluva lot. I’ve been told this is because I’m intimidating. I think it’s because I’m bitchy… 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/attraction-to-skinny-women-is-it-repressed-bi-or-homosexuallity-in-men/96258.md?page=1)
