Thank God For Full Figured Women!

Sometimes those of us of the male persuasion don’t like to admit things that we hold deep inside for fear that we’ll be made fun of. All of you men out there know exactly what I mean - if we admit we like to burp or fart loudly, then we’re accused of being savages, therefore we can never admit to it. That also goes for a lot of other things that we like to do, but, if I write about any of them here this article will flagged and nitpicked to kingdom come, so don‘t even think about asking me what they are. It really is a shame, you know, not being able to admit this stuff, cause we men will always be men, and besides, an entrepreneur who could come up with a TV filter that would always block out shows featuring Jerry Springer, Maury Povich, or Kathie Lee Gifford could become a billionaire overnight - just think about it.

Well, despite all that, it’s time we men proudly step up to the plate and admit to something. Something that all of us hold near and dear to our hearts. Something that makes us men, something that’s an inner part of our essence, and something that makes the world go around. And that something, ladies and gentlemen, is....

We love women who have a little meat on their bones.

God, there’s nothing better. A mature woman, a lady who’s lived a little, and one who has nice, full curves just makes the world go around. And that’s not just me talkin‘, either. Let’s face it, most of us men feel this way. We want to hold a woman that feels soft, one that sort of melts into you, and if she’s like that and also happens to be a good smoocher, well, she’s worth her weight in gold and then some. She’s a prime woman, a seasoned fine wine of a female, and she’ll only get better with age. Y’all think I’m off base on this? Just out there shooing flies in Alaska? Well then, please show me how many spinsters there are out there who are sassy and curvy? Not one. Nada. El zilcho. Let’s face it, all the old maids that I know of are skinnier than race track dogs on diets, and that‘s me being nice about it. When you get right down to it, a thin woman is pretty much like a small heater, very little warmth comes out and lots of maintenance is required. Need I say more?

It should be easy for you ladies to understand why we men feel this way. If you take a full figured woman into a lingerie store, all the clerks will nod and smile at you, acknowledging the fact that you’re one lucky man. She’s also the best movie companion that you can ever have because you’ll feel all sexy and warm sitting next to her, and you never have to worry that she won’t enjoy some popcorn because “it has too many fat grams.” She’s a great asset at a business dinner, as she’s typically quite smart and a great conversationalist, so she’ll mingle well with all the attendees. When you get right down to it, she’s a real woman, the best thing goin‘, and all the make-up and silicone in the world are pale subsitutes for her awesome, natural gifts. She’s an ace, pure and simple.

So, all you ladies out there, the next time you see some Paris fashion show on TV that features a bunch of malnourished waifs that don’t even make ripples in their clothes, just know that maybe two percent of the male population finds them attractive, and that two percent probably owns a complete set of Richard Simmons work-out tapes. That’s just the truth of it, consequences smon-sequences. Most of us men enjoy a nice, attractive woman of substance, the kind that we love so much that we deliberately take her to Italian or Mexican restaurants just so that we can make sure that she stays the woman she is. Just remember that less is not always better, unless you’re a visiting relative or someone pushing a pyramid marketing scheme involving insurance, cosmetics, or timeshare condominium sales...

Good morning darlin' ~ This is by far, your best post ever!!!! You couldn't have put a bigger smile on my face first thing in the morning.....

You are going to make a lot of women happy today!!!

Lots of smoochies,
Bethie
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 7:34am EDT
Meant every word, too, my darlin'. Women with curves just do it for me, always have, always will.

You have a great day pretty lady,

E3
Elizabeth O. Oct 11, 2009, 7:58am EDT
How could I possibly not have a great day with the wonderful way you started it? Thank you!!!!

Psst...wanna go to the movies? *hehehehe*

You have a great day too, darlin'
Bethie
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 8:00am EDT
LOL, will you buy me candy too?

Smoochies,

E3
Elizabeth O. Oct 11, 2009, 8:05am EDT
All the candy and popcorn you can hold, but you have to share with me...and we have to sit in the back in the make-out section - *wink, wink*

I was thinking, maybe I don't need to lose the 10 lbs I have been trying to forever. Maybe today will be stuff my face day. Now that sounds really good. Thanks sweetie. You made my day!
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 7:39am EDT
Annmarie, from the heart, eat and never think twice about it. Somewhere out there, maybe someone already close to you, will be very, very glad you did!

Smoochies,

Nancy * Oct 11, 2009, 7:48am EDT
Though I would like to take a few pounds off for health reasons I gave up trying to be "thin" years and years ago... for onet thing genetics has always been against me. I'm from a long line of round Italian women who love to cook and eat... happily that's what my husband loves most about me I think.. the fact that I can cook anything up and is always delicious. He also enjoys snuggling wtih me in the winter time to warm himself up LOL
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 7:51am EDT
Nancy, I'm telling you, you rarely if ever see a full figured woman who's by herself. On the other hand, you can find single bone skinny women til the day you die. I know this, on a cool night lots of guys say a silent prayer of thanks for the curvy, very womanly woman lying next to them.....

Smoochies,

well, well a little look into a mans world....
Women in the USA are averaged sized (I had read) is size 14, not 5. So I am still doing good lmao! Not that I worry about it lol!

:0) morning you!
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 7:55am EDT
Hey darlin'. Ever wanna know how men really feel? Watch a full figured woman walk by and watch their eyes if a group of guys is about.....

Smoochies,

E3
MrsRoad Runner Oct 11, 2009, 8:11am EDT
MMM never really thought about it.
Women; we are so much harder on other women then men could ever be, notice this?
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 8:14am EDT
I might get hammered for saying this, but I think women are much more territorial towards their men than men are towards their women. Just the way both sexes are wired, I think.....

Smoochies,

E3
MrsRoad Runner Oct 11, 2009, 8:38am EDT
You think?
I am unwilling to create drama though, my man oh my!!
Me and his ex wife had a long time about my man, is that bad??
"I think women are much more territorial towards their men than men are towards their women. "

Is this turning into "advice to women about men" from you lol
I just feel some men are not to be caged, same with some women.

OK it is still early over here lmao - more coffee lol!
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 8:42am EDT
Some men can't be caged, others can be if their trainers are pretty, sexy, and smart enough!

Le smoochies,

E3
MrsRoad Runner Oct 11, 2009, 8:45am EDT
LMAO I walked into that one didn't I ?
Left the door wide open :0)
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 2:09pm EDT
ok do I need to lay down for this???? lol it sounds more like a "couch brain teaser" hey DOC, tell me "you think I be territorial towards my men" !!!! lol

Martin R Oct 11, 2009, 8:35am EDT
There’s nothing like a woman with a nice rack, rounded hips and a tummy. Now I don’t care for extremely large women, but a woman that’s 5’3”to 5’4” and 145 to 165 lbs excites me.
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 8:39am EDT
Tell it, Martin, it makes my trouser pickle want to jump out of the jar, too!

E3
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 2:42pm EDT
Hey Martin, mmmm how you doing cowboy? You like a woman with a "nice rack" huh... what about a nice saddle!!!! mmmm does that excite you also, I wonder!!!
Martin R Oct 11, 2009, 4:28pm EDT
I like young fillies who like to be rode high in the saddle.
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 5:15pm EDT
hahaha ohhh, Martin thats really cute!!! Young fillies indeed!!! lol But, thoughts of the last time I rode a horse "high in the saddle" I had blisters on the inside of my legs. lol but thats only part of the story!!! yes great memories!!! lol

morning Ed, mmmm a man that tell's it like it is, and very well. Your so right a woman with a little meat on her bones looks more attractive then the skinny ones. Her in Oklahoma you would fit right in, for you don't see very many skinnies. We like to eat here! You will find some wonderful cooks, educated full figured women.
here's a good morning from a mature, soft, cuddly, curvy, 125 lb full figured lady!
Oh did I mention a great kisser too

full figured kisses to ya
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 8:41am EDT
Darlin', you're prettier than a picture and enough to make any writer's fingertips all tingly!

Smoochies,

E3
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 9:04am EDT
mmm "prettier than a picture and enough"!!! I haven't been called that before! but I have been called a "chicky chick", and I'm still not sure what that one means!!! and "ohhh so soft"! "hotter then a pistal"!!! yeah these Oklahoma guys talk funny!!! lol

kisses
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:08am EDT
Here they'd say, "hotter than a four dollar pistol", but it's the South, after all...

Smoochies,

E3
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 9:12am EDT
and they never just "look" as you walk by, hell... they fall off what ever there sitting on "whistling and saying babe come back"!!!
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 9:26am EDT
and if they are walking past you, well....lol ...they turn there entire body , sometimes "just the head", so they can get a good look at that "back yard swing"!!! so obvious! lol you gotta love them!!!! makes my day anytime!

kisses
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:28am EDT
Darlin', all men love a good "backyard swing," a good chestial is bestial display is worth noting as well....

Smoochies,

E3
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 9:38am EDT

Good morning
This was so sweet.
Sometimes a good woman has to tell the man what he wants. lol. My hubby ex-wife walked him into a cement pillar broke his nose. His eyes was watching a tight little body and not where he was going.
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 8:55am EDT
Tammy, I've done about as worse. One time I zipped up too fast and nearly cut off my pink love digit because I heard some guys yellin' compliments to an obviously chestily endowed lady just outside the restroom door at a football game....

Smoochies,

E3
tammy b. Oct 11, 2009, 9:49am EDT

YOU HAVE MADE MY DAY......and so many other women in the world. I know I need to shed a few lbs and the best way for me to do it is to exercise some...not more but some. I just haven't had the time and it has been way too hot here in Florida to breath much less workout. Everytime I say I want to loose some...Ric tells me I am fine and he likes me just the way I am.

My obsession with shedding a few comes from the first marriage when I was told that he was ashamed to be seen with me. I had just had my second child and didn't have time to do what was needed to be done to be a good wife, a good mother and do something to improve myself for my husband. I am still fighting that image of myself and at one point I was told by a doctor that if I lost more weight and didn't start eating that I would die. I had gotten down to under 120 and for my height and age...that wasn't a good thing. I must admit that I feel better when I weigh a little less but I feel great now so toning it up will be my goal rather than loose. If some comes off then that is fine too.

You are the second man this week that has said that they like women that have a little meat on their bones and I know for the most part that a just the right shape makes the ladies and men look better.

Thank you for making me feel better about myself today...even if I still think I need to take off a few.

Hugs to my Gather hero and Southern Gentleman.
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:29am EDT
Darlin', you're prime, and those lush curves are what makes the world go 'round for me and a lotta other guys. Remember, Olive Oyl only had two guys who ever paid her any attention.....

Smoochies,

E3
Karen F. Oct 11, 2009, 9:36am EDT
I do have to admit that I have men flirt with me...that tell me that I am attractive and don't look my age (thank God for Lorel' that covers the gray), but it is so very hard to get past put downs that have dug deep and the scars that are left by ones that "love you". It has taken two divorces to get me to the point that I say to hell with what they think...I love me and if I can make a head or two turn at my age...then that is a good thing. I do take pride in my appearance (you wouldn't think so now since I have been cleaning house), but I alway try to look nice when I leave the house...even to go to Walmart...lol. I will keep the curves...just make the tighter and more snuggly. How's that? It can't hurt my health either.
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:37am EDT
Hell, I flirt with you! Don't I at least get a brownie point or two for that, you don't think I flirt with skinny haints, now do you?

Le obvious smoochies,

E3
Karen F. Oct 11, 2009, 9:44am EDT
Honey, you get the whole tray of brownies and the glass of milk to wash them down. I shamelessly and harmlessly flirt back. No, it doesn't appear that you do flirt with the skinnies of the world. You are just such an spirit booster for me and so many others.

Huggies...not the diapers to you
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:50am EDT
Thank God! LOL!

E3
Karen F. Oct 11, 2009, 9:58am EDT
LOL...you're the best.

Good morning Darlin'! This article hits home, first of all go ahead and write about your unmentionables! I am the only female in this house and know all about savage behavior, so it wouldn't offend me, I would roll over laughing as it would be all too familar! However, I do remind them to mind their manners in public.

Your article today will bring a much needed smile to many women, with the advertising displaying twig shaped women in store ads, television, billboards etc, it's no wonder there are so many young girls and women suffering from anorexia today.
For me, being with other full figured women I am more relaxed and have more fun as well. Have you really listened to the beautiful sound she makes when she laughs?

Society has convinced us that we are not as desirable, what a shame.
Thanks for opening your heart and sharing this with us Ed, you are a sweetie!

Warm snuggly smoochies to you!

♥Ű♥
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:35am EDT
Darlin', I'm just sayin' what's the truth, I never understood why Madison Avenue thinks that men are attracted to waifs? Never got it at all. Wanna know what men lust for, hell, it's simple - check out what runs in Penthouse, Playboy, or any of the rest of them - curves, curves, and more curves.

And you, darlin', are a poster child for a very, very appealing lady.

Smoochies,

E3
Kris P. Oct 11, 2009, 9:47am EDT
They are not listening, I went on a diet frenzy at one point in my life because I thought is was what I had to do, and I was very under weight and my mother worried that she would lose me the way Karen Carpenter. Dieting is for the birds, I say eat and drink whatever your heart desires!

Thanks again, you always know just what to say! Wink!

♥Ű♥
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:49am EDT
We do what we can, darlin'!

Smoochies,

As you have pointed out, and quite well I must say, women are more than magazine covers and wispy fashion feathers of eye candy for whom I have not as yet discovered. Women, and men too, are humans of some substance mentally and of personality and temperament, some of more or less heft from bone to skin, the package MUST have a series of complex attributes to appeal to others who understand what a full and functioning productive human is.

Ge Ed, when you go all cranial you show a depth of character which is in your humor yet, enhanced with allowing us to see your inner intellect. Again. you have inspired me--not to write an article just human inspiration! Thanks!

Ed, you are one amazing man. Took a lot to write this didn't it? Most men are afraid to get teased on such truth.
A little weight means a healthy happy person. I think most women who are "tiny" are actually miserable and don't realize that not eating is not healthy...
my hubby always stated that a little cushion is better for the pushin'(if you know what I mean)Lol
I like farting loud and proud! Lol
You, my dear friend,is a special one.
sweet sunday smoochies to you!
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 9:54am EDT
Kimberly, curves may be bad on roads, but on the mattress highway they be damn well wonderful!

yes the "media" and glamour magazines need to start focusing on fuller figured women!! my grandaughter at 13 yrs old came over crying just the other day because a boy at school had mad a remark about her size! Now mind you she is not over weight "maybe 15 lbs" but she is tall 5' 6" already. she is just loosing her babe fat! and a very beautiful girl. so I gave her a loving "heart to heart" talk, and she was laughing when she went back home!

Today's Illusion Oct 11, 2009, 11:58am EDT
A shocking thing to me about 10 years ago when for some still unexplained reason my size zoomed from size 7 to size 13. I wanted to hide. The shocking thing, more men flirted with me than ever before, and I wasn't a a 'kid" anymore.
My weight is normal again, but I still remember that time when I was "round" and men flirted. Exact opposite to what I had always been taught.
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 12:13pm EDT
Illusion...your so right on....we (ladies) should give men a big smile and kiss on the cheek..for being smarter than we give them credit for, and as for our handsome mister Ed here, I'd marry him in a heart beat!!!! That is if he wasn't already married! darn hahaa
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 12:16pm EDT
Man, all these marriage proposals, and from some damn fine lookin' women! My digits are all a-tingly, and I need more material in my britches!

Stacey *Mamasaid* D. Oct 11, 2009, 12:21pm EDT
Ed, even when I was a size 2, I was curvaceous and bodacious. Thanks to the honestly of male friends, I learned long ago men prefer a women with some meat on her bones so I never thought twice about it. Hubby tells me, "The bone is for the dog, the meat is for the man!"

Gotta love a man who tells it like it is ;) Great post!
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 12:24pm EDT
Stacey, what amazes me is that the advertisers don't get it. Most every male friends I have would tell you they'd much rather have a curvaceous "all woman" lady that a third world malnourished type.

It's still cool to get kudos for something I thought was so obvious.

Smoochies, darlin',

E3
Linda B. Oct 11, 2009, 2:02pm EDT
Oh, the advertisers get it all right. Women do more shopping than men (men tend to go make the 'big' purchases but women spend smaller amounts on a much more regular basis) and the advertisers figured out long ago that they could entice women more effectively by playing on their insecurities. Ever noticed the focus on 'making your life better' as if it couldn't possibly have been worth living before their product came along?

And let's face it, most men are not going to care about which hair color or floor cleaner is better at getting the job done.
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 2:45pm EDT
Linda, you're right, we don't care a bit, but if we invest money in something from Victoria Secrets we want to be sure that the object of our affections can fill it up in all the right places.....

Smoochies,

My daughter is 17, gorgeous, 5', about 110, stacked (actually built like I was at her age) ~ gets checked out all the time. She gets grossed out when guys (and not just the old ones) check me out. It always astounds me that they do anyway, but especially when I'm with her. Of course it makes me feel great, but then I get very humbled when I hear, "Mooooooommmm, that guy is checking you out, eeewwww, that is sooooooo gross because you are soooo old". (actually, Ed, we are quite close in age).

Bethie
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 12:33pm EDT
oh Liz that reminds me of one, when I was shopping in "Bass Pro Shop" with my son a few years back...the young salesman leaned over close to my son as not wanting me to hear...said, man is that your girlfriend she's hot!!! Well... boy what a look the salesman had when Jeff said, "thats my MOM"!!!! lol made my day!
Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 12:35pm EDT
oh should have added my son was 36 yrs old at the time!!!
Melanie S. Oct 11, 2009, 12:40pm EDT
It's been a hard, long road with my daughter. She is 13 years old and just now beginning to accept the fact that she is not fat, she is beautiful and meaty.

She is 5'5" and 129 pounds, but she is so active, there is nothing but muscles under those curves of hers. Boy am I worried about highschool next year!
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 12:40pm EDT
Y'all get checked out, I get, "You know, for an old guy, you still seem to be holding up well."

Smoochies,

Melanie S. Oct 11, 2009, 12:41pm EDT
Oh whatever Ed! You know you've got the ladies of Gather all drooling over you!

Melanie, if I do, it's because the good lord is blessing me for some unforseen reason.

Smoochies,

Elizabeth O. Oct 11, 2009, 12:45pm EDT
Oh crap ~ my keyboard just shorted out from drooling over you, Ed.

Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 2:43pm EDT
No, no, I refer to my heiny as my two twin pink apples, heard Al Bundy call his that on an episode of "Married With Children." You know that Al Bundy is one of the great unsung philosophers of our time....

Ed... Ed... you men should know by now that most of the crowd will just shake their heads at a man's bodily noises being boldly announced, because well... you're men! But let a woman not try to hold back what is only natural and we're disgusting, shocking, and as very unlady like as we can be.

That said, I'm pleased to have a man that doesn't blink when I let belch fly that could put any man to shame! heh. I do tend to be more private about the other gas noises though and try to leave the room.

I too think this is one of my favorite posts that you've made. You've forgotten one point... You've got better chances of finding a woman that is a darn good cook this way! As my husband says, "There's just something not right with a skinny cook, makes me worry about what I'm about to eat."
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 12:42pm EDT
A skinny cook tells you something right out of the gate, if she's not eating her own stuff how does she expect you to eat it?

Melanie, you're an excellent commenter!

Smoochies,

E3
Elizabeth O. Oct 11, 2009, 12:47pm EDT
My aforementioned daughter ~ has perfected bodily noises to a science ~ she can put any man finely tuned in that department to shame....and is proud of it!!! I just shake my head...all that money on charm school wasted.
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 1:00pm EDT
Yeah, but Mr. Methane is makin' a helluva living on his very unique ability, so there's always hope!

Smoochies,

Tina M. Oct 11, 2009, 1:24pm EDT
Melanie...that one is great....lol I can't stop!!! lol You wont see me eating her stuff...a good cook always tastes it first!!!! My granny always told me that, and she was a 4ft heavy woman, carried her weight with pride!

Once again, you've made my day. My husband's hung in there through thick and thin, literally -- I go from underweight to overweight every several years. He was a professional athlete when we were younger, and working out is an absolute requirement for his day. I hate it! Now I'm trying to lose, and people have actually asked what that hunk is doing with HER! I'm so glad he shares your attitude, at least where I'm concerned.
Smoochies!
Ed Williams Oct 11, 2009, 1:01pm EDT

You have made my day, Ed. I have been struggling to lose some pounds and it just isn't happening. I now have a new perspective, thank you. Doesn't mean that I will simply pig out, but I won't be as concerned if I keep a few of those pounds.

Chocolate smoochies,
Elizabeth

You're a sweetie - smoochies,

I try to stay occupied but it has nothing to do with relationships. Gave up on that.

Thanks for the smoochies, Ed. You are a gem.
