[Susan-P]

I'm 55, female and white. Most white men consider me overweight. Several black men, especially those who see me in workout clothes, consider me appealing. Is this a racial thing?

Since I was about 15, my figure has been appreciated much more by black guys than white. I have a small upper body, little waist, and what I always considered a fat butt and thighs. However, my black boyfriend explained that neither he nor most young black men see it as fat; it is just a nice, healthy "thickness."

He also explained to me four the basic levels of body mass - "skinny," which is unattractively thin, "slim," which is just that: Slender but not unnattractive, "thick," which is above slender but "with extra in the right places," and "fat," which unfortunately is unnattractively overweight. He says the extra flesh is a bonus if you carry it well. I guess you do!
