What Dux said.

Dux, to be fair, you like your women so mature that you'd have to dig some of them up to have a go.
Not that that would deter an assiduously deviant mallard such as yourself, I'm sure.

She's a six point five. No more than that.

ok that strikes me as a bit ridiculous
she is definitely more attractive than average and average is not very attractive
it's a human scale not a supermodels scale

Why not "what Dux said about chippy people"? It's undeniably true.

I think some women are uncomfortable around beautiful women because it makes them feel abd about themselves
it's not necessarily chippiness so much as almost unconscious bias

100% honestly, I would prefer a normal looking assistant to a stunna (although that would only be relevant if they had equally lol personalities)

Is she wearing red heels? Dux is sold then

She's just above average (if average is a 5). Not a classic beauty or even strikingly exotic. Just "pretty". Which gets you a 6.5. Sorry, but them's the rules.

I wouldn't have a problem spaffing all over her.

I've long held the view that you'll rarely find an unpleasant looking chap/lady in the front office teams of professional services (banking/law/accountancy etc etc). tax and pensions obviously are a rule unto themselves
(obviously as people get older and let themselves go, things can change a bit, but by then they're established)

Then we're working on different bases here, Clergs. I would describe "average" as - say - Steph McGovern. Not flawless, not without imperfections, but not unattractive either. Certainly not a hideous chundermunter.
0

Same, actually.
Although in one memorable case I discovered I enjoyed talking to the person after we had already slept together.
Yes to the beer. No thank you to the spaffing.

the average woman is a size 16/18
the average man has a 38 inch waist

So yes, Steph McGovern then. Size 16/18 is not fat.

Lolwut? I have a below av waist? Awesome!
0

A 38 inch waist may be fat, depending on proportionality to rest of the man. If I had one, I'd be fat (I don't - I'm 33", but then I'm 6'1" and 12.5 stones). If I was 6'4 and heavily muscled (which, alas, I am not), a 34" waist would be malnourished.
0

16/18 is, with respect, pretty chunky. My girlfriend is a size 6. So maybe my opinion differs as a result of that, but seriously I don’t think I’ve ever dated anyone over a size 14 at the very outside.
0

Size 16/18 is fat, medically speaking, for any height that a woman is liekly to be.
0
0
Hmm. I’m a 34 but I’m six two and 14.5ish stone.
0

That, again, depends, Teclis. Size 16 on a 5'10" woman is not necessarily chunky. Size 6 is the preserve of smack addicts, final stage alchoholics and supermodels.

I reckon about 1bn women are a size 6 and not in any way unhealthy

She’s just small sized. Like 5’4”

There you go, Tecco. In proportion.
Clergs, possibly, but that depends on body type and weird things like hip and bust measurements. But would you describe Venus Williams as fat for example? Amazonian, yes, but not fat.

If I had a BMI of 19 I would be a size 6.

Is Steph McGovern that lady off BBC Breakfast with the appalling voice?
0

I seriously doubt venus williams is even close to an 18
but even if she were, her body is an elite athlete body
a woman of 5 ten would need a lot of body fat to wear that size

Great knockers tho. I’m so gleeful about the fact that she’s tiny but got huge boobies. *sighs wistfully*
0

You see? So just as small framed women may be size 6 and not anorexic, larger framed women may easily be size 16 and not be fat. So a 6' woman who was size 6 wold be worryingly thin. The same woman who was a size 16 would be curvy, but not fat.

Judy - yes.

I'm average height (possibly slightly taller) and with a BMI of 19 I would be a size 6, whereas with a BMI of 25 I would be a size 12.
I know because I've been both.

That's not how clothes work tho
A thin six foot woman could not wear a size 18 it would hang weirdly around her like a mattress valance

Nah size 16 is just fatass territory. Not terminally so, easy to shift a bit of that blub but it’s right on that line where people stop being curvy or voluptuous and move into Dawn French territory.
Not for me Clive!

Totally disagree with this
Attractiveness is a definite disadvantage in law or accountancy
Too much jealousy and dissonance

I realise that. But a curvy 6 foot woman could quite easily wear a size 16, yes? I'm talking Kelly Brook type curvy.

I'm sure Kelly Brook is no bigger than a size 12.

No, Kelly Brook at curvy is a size 14.

I would say it is highly unlikely to be that clothes size and not clinically overweight
You might also be a hottie (going back to o the main topic) but the average person also has a grey and depressing face

I happen to know something about this lol. Ahem. Her weight issue has caused her size to bounce around down from an 8 up to a 14.

Yes, but Kelly Brook is nowhere near 6' tall is she?
I doubt that the average person has a grey and depressing face!

According to Google, Kelly Brook is the same height as me and I looked quite chubby at size 12.

The average person definitely does what is wrong with you do you go about with some sort of filter on??

Look it’s super unlikely a girl is going to be in proportion no matter her height at size 16. That is well into muumuu wearing land.

Can't say I've noticed that most people's faces are grey and depressing. Then again, I've not really taken time to observe. You could be right, but I doubt it. Otherwise the human race would be extinct by now.

This is a good article, it's quite realistic about the way things work without being overly resentful.
I do think the attractiveness thing holds fairly true for men too though. Men often age into being ugly fookers, but guys who look like the back end of a bus are rarely getting the plum front office type roles.
Silicon Valley is maybe a bit different because they're so desperate for the skills that basically anyone that has them can get in.
