Faye is curvy
laizeohbeets:
You know, when people say they like "curvy" women, I gotta agree with Catbus. They want hourglass. I'm on the slim side, but I have boobs and hips. This makes me curvy, but I am, by no means, remotely apple-shaped. I've been told by many people that I have a desirable body shape. I went through a period of time when I was tiny, due to a medication I was on. Could not gain weight. I looked so unhealthy, especially in the face. Now, I'm still tiny, but I have meat on my bones where I should, and I'm constantly complimented on my weight. I was a similar weight/shape in 11th grade, and I was about a 4-6 then. They've definitely vanity sized in 8 years, as my 4s and 6s still fit!
I have to agree with people that are tiny having a difficulty finding pants. I'm ~ US size 2 (It should be noted I'm 5'2 1/2, and am well within my weight range), but I have long legs, so I can't wear petites. Add in that I do, in fact, have a butt and hips, it makes it increasingly difficult to find pants. Trust me, they rarely make "curvy" jeans in a size 2. I cannot find things in normal department stores that fit me, however.
Faye's a lucky one, because she has the boobs and the butt most people want. I wouldn't call her body type overweight at all, because she doesn't look pudgy. If she was real, I bet she would have a heck of a time finding pants that fit her, though!

Y'know, I've never encountered a girl that said, "Yeah, I went into the store, saw [article of clothing] that I liked, tried it on, and it fit perfectly.
Frankly, women are a delight of infinite variety and they should stage a violent revolution to bring back the career of "tailor", an individual who makes clothes to custom fit.
Why? Because women spend too much time complaining about how if they find clothes that fit they're legs, they're too wide in the hips/that fit their hips they're too long in the leg/fit their boobs but have arms meant for an orangutan/can only wear moo moos because Ralph Lauren is a dumbass. Women should be free to complain about their boyfriends, god-dammit!

My pants fit my waist, but they won't fit my hips, or they are too darn short. I maybe 5'7", but my legs are longer than most 6' plus people I know. But, apparently, if you have long legs, you must also either be fat or really skinnny....none of that in the middle. Don't even get me started on shirts. My good old 36-C/D's (they are right on the cusp depending on current weight and such) don't let any shirts fit right.
I want to be a comic character. That way, even if I have boobs and hips, I can still have clothes that fit and are always flattering!

I've always wondered who designs women's dress shirts. It's like, unless you have no tits, you can't fit into a dress shirt that is actually the proper size for you. Ironically, my girlfriend thinks she's "fat" because she has trouble finding dress shirts that fit, but usually the problem is just that her boobs are too big so she can't button up the shirt. If she was flat-chested, the shirt would fit perfectly. She's stuck wearing either more casual clothes or dress shirts that too big for her.
Of course, us guys sometimes have problems like that. I often have to buy shirts that are a size too big because the "proper" size doesn't fit my shoulders properly. I've got broad shoulders, but I'm not a particularly large guy, so if a shirt fits my shoulders, it probably looks baggy on the rest of my torso.
Getting back to the point of this post, though: Yes, Faye is curvy. She has an hour-glass figure. She is not fat. If she was a real person she'd probably be pretty hot, whereas most of the other QC women would be skinny to the point that I, personally, would probably not find them attractive. And that's about as far as I'm willing to go with that because I don't want to sound like one of the creepy "I wanna see Hanners naked" people.

I've had items of clothing fit perfectly. Rarely, but it happens, but I never end up buying them, usually for one reason.
They're too exposing. I'm not someone who is comfortable exposing skin. I will wear jeans in 100+ degree weather with 80+% humidity because I hate wearing shorts and/or skirts. Swimsuits that fit me are usually bikinis, with those leetle teeny bottoms.
I have the figure for bikinis (although I could use more in the chest area), but I'm just not comfortable wearing them. I'd rather wear clothing that doesn't fit so well but keeps me covered than clothing that fits perfectly but shows too much skin.
From shoulders down, I am pretty much entirely covered by fabric.
This means I have to go shopping by myself, because my friends always shove various items of clothing at me, with exclamations of "This is so cute! You would look awesome!" and it's a pair of short shorts. Lol.
Faye is hourglass figured, and that is, honestly, the most attractive female bodytype for me. However, given the choice between a bodytype like mine, and someone who is 'chubby' but not hourglass shaped (say like, an apple or something) I go for the apples. If I weren't me, I wouldn't date me. Waaaay too skinny. Faye's body is, physically the most attractive.
For instance, Jessica Simpson apparently gained some weight recently. People were goin' nuts calling her fat etc, but I honestly thought she was really hot with the extra weight.
