    Do men view women who are heavier differently? If so, why? In tonight's episode of "Talks with Tony" I address the question from a young lady who is being approached in a disrespectful way by some men.

    This is spot on Tony. I’m a fat girl and a nurse so I’m a double target. Always attracted white /Spanish men who fetishized me but rarely wanted more beyond sex. I realized it was ME! Finally working on my weight, relationship with god, and my mental health. 99% of being overweight is a reflection of self-discipline/ mental health in my opinion.❤️💕

    I used to think that men preferred women of a particular body type but then I thought about the fact that Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry etc. all got cheated on and they're beautiful, successful and fit women.
    I think that most women don't get treated well, regardless of how they look and what body type they have.
    All we can do as women is work on ourselves for ourselves and trust that God will send the right one for us. A man who would help us to get to the best version of ourselves, mentally, physically and spiritually.

    I have gotten every single man that I’ve wanted by being plus size. They rush to me and it’s because the confidence I carried. I looked good, smelled good, and carried myself well. I’ve lost weight and still attract the same men. Keep your boundaries strong and your self-love stronger and they will fawn over you!

      @Childfree334 3 года назад +86

      This comment right here is everything and so TRUE. Women with confidence, high self esteem, and strong boundaries get all the respect and attract all kinds of men. I am 5'11, a size 14/16, and weigh 200 lbs. I have men of all races trying to get at me every day because of my attitude, intelligence, and self confidence. Even telling them I am involved doesn't stop them. I love my body AND my deep chocolate skin color. I will not listen to anyone who would even try to tell me I am not beautifully and wonderfully made. I have female friends of every race, shape and size because I love MYSELF and never compare my physical attributes with any of them. They are all beautiful as well in their own ways. If women have no boundaries, are desperate, and allow men to treat them like garbage they will be miserable no matter their looks, shape, or size.

    Good points. May I add as a woman, You may not need to lose weight to find love, but consider the type of man you want to attract.

      I always struggled with the weight issue growing up- i was a very skinny child until puberty which caused my weight gain and because i am short i was always a very chesty girl up front which caused a lot of shame and embarrassment over my body type- i
      can say that after joining a gym a year ago i have lost so much weight and am fit and toned and in better shape physically at 47 than i ever was at 22 - and i agree that first impressions matter- men notice women with confidence who are trying to better themselves- when you begin a self care routine of mind body and spirit your confidence in yourself as a child of God will shine thru and will be attractive- you will start to turn heads - its been happening to me a lot over the past couple of years - a fit body will also renew your strength and shave years off of you- i’m 47 but due to my smooth complexion (no wrinkles) people think I’m in my 30s- they are so shocked when i tell them my age - wear your crown ladies and do not settle for less than what God has for you - walk with confidence, dignity and self respect 🎉🌈👑❤️

Since childhood. & my mom would talk down to me. Not my father though. Outside of my mother not many ppl commented on my weight, as a child. As I got older there were slick comments about my weight. But I’ve always been conscious of myself& projected love for myself! Ive never had many issues with getting a man though. I taught myself that the men who don’t like me (rather I’m big or small) are just not for me. Either accept me for me or get from around me! I’d also like to say, that ppl need to get over it.

      I have an hourglass figure as well and so do a couple of my cousins and we have the same problem. So many men who just stare, or follow you around and never say anything. The ones who are bold enough are typically younger or have a fetish for women with big butts and small waist and will do and say anything, I mean anything to sleep with you. And when you have a beautiful face and you're smart on top of that they are often intimidated. They sexualize you before they even speak to you. Which is why I present myself in a very polite conservative manner. Also some men equate a woman looking sexy to her being hypersexual. It's grossly immature.

So, if you attract fools don't take it personal. If they try you, they're just doing what they do. Even narcissists like to see if they can break a confident woman. Learn to discern and deflect! Keep it pushing and if you need to, re-read the poem, Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou.

You can't see a drug addict,alcoholic, abuser, bulimic or mental ill person's struggle until you have an opportunity to engage with them. We wait to judge those people until we know, by talking to them but if you're overweight you can see it immediately and we judge not realizing that those people could possibly be very strong confident intelligent kind and gracious people.

    I am looking forward to listening to this Talk with Tony.... its been 2.5 months since I gave up all sugar, dessert and candy. I no longer crave it and I don't care to buy it because my grocery bill is👌 and I never have to worry about funding money for a late night a sugar craving again!!
    I also started a new rule of no eating after 6pm. Late night eating is very bad for my health and my waistline and my grocery budget. My weight is steadily going down but my health is going up! I eat whatever I want between 10-6pm and its usually meat and vegetables 😋. Sugar also degrades collagen and elastin in the skin so stay away from it. The beauty industry will not tell you this. Restore your skin and hormones by getting off sugar!!

      I will eat a bowl of ground beef with butter and im fueled for hours. Meat does NOT cause weight gain! That is a lie from the Devil
      Sugar, refined carbohydrates, caffeine, dairy and alcohol are the offenders. Our ancestors all ate meat. Sorry but I cannot stand thay Vegan nonsense. Even in the Bible they only abstain from meat Temporary, not permanent! Meat is the best food for humans. Cellulose and alot of fiber ruins the gut and causes problems. I have IBS and I even have problems with too much fiber. These are myths.

    I am a heavier woman and my grandmother taught me dating is a skill .... something you do with purpose and you should improve with time. I have always been heavier kissed a few frogs before finding my prince. I have always been direct with men... stating what I wanted and was looking for, which is good but you also must be vigilant for signs that you are wasting your time and be ready to move on. I met my husband online and I told him before we even met that I was not looking to casually date and if he was then he was not for me. I think a lot of women tell themselves you don't need a partner, while this may be true making this fact the foundation of your attitude maybe self sabotage. I guess my point in saying this, is that, whether you are full figured or slim, rich or poor, sexy or average it does not matter you can't get what you want if you don't state what you want to yourself and others.

Don't do games won't play games luv hard respect if it's given completely faithful & don't cheat, I'd rather leave the relationship & guys lie & say they looking for the same just to do the lies & games then leave after I've invested so much in to it. Haven't been in many relationships only 4of them. 5yrs, 2yrs(he was killed) 12yrs( ended 2013) focused on myself (2013- Nov. 2018) so I'd be 100% ok 4 the next guy. Finally tried again with sum1 I had been friends with 20yrs in (2018) poured into it & he ended up being a frog 2. Now single as of 8-16-21. Still releasing & working on myself. Hopefully the next 1 whenever he may cum will be that end all be all that I've been looking 4.

    I can't wait to hear this one. Size 20/18 here I am so curious. One thing is I have never been big my whole life. Kid years and teens I was super skinny. After college post grad is where I picked up my weight. It is so different being on the plus side and people's comments on it. They obsess with weight ( both men and women). I have tough skin but it can be hard. I am glad I was not a big child because I can not imagine what it could have been during those years. Like her, I lost 25 pounds in the past year and am happy 😊. I am adding to lose another 25 this year.

I’m done with that personally, and am doing the inner workings as well as outer work as to not attract those type of men into my life in the future. Losing weight isn’t all it takes to repair oneself especially if that person has been through altering experiences regardless of physical size.

You can never go wrong being confident but also fit and healthy to show a form of discipline and most of all-self love. Men who are healthy inside and out only view big women as a fetish.

    The other white actress Tony forgot to mention was Kathy Bates. She was from the old school. What I like about her is she stayed the same size/ weight from the 80's, 90's, 2000 and up to today. She didn't do like the other full figured actress's start out one way then make a few bucks then lose weight to be like everyone else, and lose what they stood for in the beginning. Kathy didn't get roles that often, but when she did she did not alter herself for them . The roles she played in were looking for people just like who she was. Therefore she never changed she just waited for a call from an agent with something specific she would be perfect for.

    I’m gonna try to keep this short. I understand this young lady’s plight to a tee because often time this is what happened to me to the point I was literally turned off from dating men in general period. I always felt like I had to overcompensate because I’m not 36-24-36. I had to be super witty or extra funny or overdress (boardroom 3 pc suite and heels sharp) or sundress matching nails, toes and hair laid all the time and match from head to toe to prove a point. I’ve always been the pretty fat girl, the homegirl or awwww she cooler than a fan girl. And Just Right with Queen Latifah just happens to be my one of favorite movies because that’s exactly how I feel. That’s pretty much been my dating experience. You either meet guys who think you owe them something or guys who are ashamed to been seen with you out in the public but up under you talking shit behind closed doors. I feel like I had to overcompensate to prove a point, maybe to them, maybe to myself while dude was trying to holla at my homegirls and they scheming on drinks and a comeup I would have a pocket full of money and could literally buy the bar out if I wanted to. So I get it. I’ve learned these days who and what is for you is just that for you. I’m only concentrating on how to be a better, healthier me. No more competition, no more being a breadwinner to these bums just be happy and find inner peace within myself.
