This is how much single men care about a woman's weight
Do size 10s have more chance of finding love than size 18s?

Do men like fat women? I created two identical online dating profiles of me size 18 and size 10 to find out
So, to find out if men like fat women, I created two identical online dating profiles of me size 18 and size 10 to find out.
Anyway, the experiment. I set up these profiles on free online dating site OKCupid.
In the ‘photos’ sections, I put up a range of head shots and body shots. I won’t bore you with them all but here’s a classic ‘thin’ me –
(Yeah, """"""thin""""""")
And here’s a classic ‘fat’
Over the course of five days, fat me received 18 messages, 74 likes and 81 visits.
Thin me received more than double the attention – 36 messages, 211 likes and 210 visits.
But it can’t be denied that, if the guys of OKCupid are anything to go by, single men prefer thinner women twice as much.
Or, at least thinner me.
Alternatively, though, you could interpret these results slightly differently.
A size 18 woman, posting some of her least flattering, double chin-featuring pics, received 18 messages in five days.
That’s 18 more than the bodyshaming community might have you expect.
The most important element to me is that no matter my size, I’m now twice as confident in my body than I was as a size 10.
