Color me purple and curl my hair! (ie, )
Make me another one who’s so excited that your girlfriend now fits into one corporations definition of “small.” Your life must be so much more fulfilling now that you know that. :rolleyes:
I’m still waiting until I find the perfect girl who fits exactly into a Lane Bryant 15.
I see people a little peeved at the constantly reinforced message that a woman who fits into a small is somehow sexier, or better, or more worth having than one who fits into a medium.
I think, Jersey, at least for me, the troublesome part about the OP is not that he’s attracted to his girlfriend more because she lost weight, but that it’s because she fit into a size called “small” as decreed by an underwear company.
In otherwords, he didn’t say he was into his girlfriend because she had lost weight, but because she fit into a smaller size. Aparently he didn’t notice or care what her weight was until Victoria’s Secret told him he should be happy.
I know I’m being a little unclear, maybe someone else who feels the same can clarify.
I’m glad for him, too, but I don’t have an ideal body type for a woman. When we were married 20 years ago, my wife weighed about 110 pounds. I weighed about 130 pounds.
We’ve both gained some weight in the intervening years.
And I always tell her she looks good to me. And I mean it.
What size dress a woman wears is less important than how I feel about her as a person, or how she feels about herself. Larger women not sexy or attractive? Don’t you believe it. I’d take Cass Elliot over Calista Flockhart any day. That face, that voice, that smile; she just oozed personality. Cass was sexy, man, and that’s a fact.
I’m sure your SO is nothing short of stunning, but I found out something about Victoria’s Secret sizings. This, um, guy that I know, yeah, he was in a situation a lot like yours. He bought some pajamas for a girl who usually wears a Small but wound up needing an Extra Small. This guy and the girl speculated that Victoria’s Secret probably labels their sizes one size off to make women feel better about themselves.
