And qualifications for men too.

I don't know how a woman can handle being intimate with a guy who is ugly or skinny or too fat.

And small! Yuck!

Are you American?

The average American woman is 5'4", weighs 140, and wears a size 14...last time I checked.

Not that the above figures are healthy -- but if you wear a 4 at that height, I think you must be on the thin side. The average model on the other hand is 5'11" and 117 pounds....is that what you are comparing yourself to? Don't.

what's your BMI?

---

Yes I am American. America is an overweight society. But i am just lucky, I guess.
Snoozin, I wasn't comparing myself to anyone, just stating that I am not skinny even in a size 4. I am not sure of my BMI but I do have "love handles" although not large. And I weigh 120lbs.
I will admit back in high school I was very skinny with no shape at all. After I had a child I developed curves and added some meat to my bones. My friends even say I look like I weigh more than I actually do. I also hike often so I do try to get as much exercise as possible. But I do eat whatever I want, when I want....

Yes, what is it? 60% of Americans are overweight and they probably hate their bodies. Then there are *normal* sized people who also sometimes hate their bodies because they don't look like Misha Barton or some other famous model or actress. It bugs me that women are their own worst critics sometimes.

We should all think we are beautiful, because we are.

No, it's the US that doens't "get it" as far as surviving poverty and lean times. Have another corn chip and some soda.

5'3 and a size 14 is fat. Not a nice rack and caboose, its fat.

Your difference in bone density (if correct) would account for a minor weight flutuation (how did you arrive at the 3x more weight in bone than others? Have one removed and studied?) Im sure the docotrs are very interested in your rare condition. Your "dense" muscle doesn't weigh more than other tissue, it weighs what it weighs. A lb of fat weighs the same as a lb of muscle. In fact, if you had that much dense muscle you would be leaner looking because a lb of muscle is SMALLER than a lb of fat in mass. Stating statistics as being incorrect because of the factoring in of the morbidly obese is just a dodge. You surely are the only one with such a unique reason for being fat, you have heavier bones and muscles so you HAVE to be fat? HA, you can say you love yourself the way you are, but as nasty as you are on these boards and the venom you spew about your husband show us how unhappy you are and how unloved you are feeling.

You talk so coarsely about intimacy I am embarassed for you. I can't imagine that you are a soft or feminine lover to your husband.

There is nothing wrong with having an "average" figure, but I assure you that not all Egyptian men and families embrace the look of a lazy undisciplined woman. Your anger makes sense when I factor in that you probably don't like how you look either. Your husband and you fight over other issues, but I wonder what effect you dropping 20lbs would have on your intimate relationship, as well as the way he speaks to you.

We are very careful with our diets and make sure to excercise together daily, if we can't get to the gym, we take lovely long after dinner walks. Bundle up if its cold! Our relationship is WONDERFUL and our intimate life couldn't be any more lovely.

You can deny and snap at me all you please, but look deeper and find out why you have padded yourself with all of this "armour". What are you hiding underneath it from, and what does it protect you from?

---

Europeans are still opportunists and they are still trying to take advantage of the world.

I hve read your past posts and I understand why you attack me and my nation.

Just because you European chicks are being taken advantage of by gold digging gigilos doesn't mean they actually prefer Europeans.

It just means for the pain of being exposed to a skinny male like body they will make sure there is monetary gain involved.

ok.. let's see.. what i was trying to say is that.. in my humble opinion .. i think that a white woman is usually considered as more beautiful by an egyptian man.. on tv you will see many white actresses and few bronze to dark skinned ones.. and then all the adds about how women can make the skin brighter.. should i give more examples?

yes, and who is more beautiful:
chubby, blond, white, tall women
or
chubby, blond, white, little women?

True, many times we do tend to like the unusual.. But then.. the unusual in Egypt would not only be the white woman, but also the african one, and the asian one.. and i think an egyptian man likes the white woman more, even though all three are unusual.. but of course i am generalizing, because at the end it's a matter of individual tastes..

Posted by _Masrawi_ (Member # 9597) on :
 
no Snoozin ... it's like u guys were saying earlier. what's rare is always more preferrable. so in egypt, fair skin (and not necessarily western white) is considered favorable to tanned skin. and naturally blondish hair more favorable to darker hair. same with colored eyes.

Now that freaking wedding song. You know the line about the bride being "fair" and lovely?

I saw that awful film last night with my husband, you know the film about the "Blue Movie"?

It was done in 2001 with a few really good young actors.

Basically its a movie about 3 young guys who don't have girlfriends never kissed a woman, held a woman's hand and are chasing around Cairo and other Egyptian cities in the quest for a porno film to watch.

Actually its pretty funny.

Somehow we managed to watch it together without getting into an arguement over feminism.

But why does that wedding song refer to the bride as "fair"?

Yes, size 14 is the new normal for American women which means that yes, they are part of the 60% that are overweight. Also, a size 14 american is not the same as a size 14 European which i think is a size 48. A size 14 in the US is grossly huge especially when you take into consideration if they are under 5'8. The fit of a size 14 American means huge hips, lots of extra fabric for the bum and not much accentuation on the waist because more than likely the waist of these women is no longer subtely defined. A size 48 European is large however the clothing is well proportioned and accentuates the curves that the woman has and has a longer inseam because more than likely if she wears a larger size than she is probably tall. Clothing lines specifically design apparel for American women's versus European and S.American women because so many American women are overweight and don't take care of their appearance.

Looks attracted us to each other initially, and the process of falling in love has made us even MORE attracitve to each other. I work a full time job, as does he, but when I get home first at night, I am sure to tidy the house start the water for tea, and change into something attractive that will please him to see. He makes me RUN towards my femininity, and the more I am feminine, the more MASCULINE and sexy he gets. We make it a point to STAY physical when we are together, we are constantly touching.

Good lord I can argue all day with people at work, when I get home I want love and laughter.

We are two of the happiest people we know. Always.

I have noticed though that it is the african boys and sometimes north african eg algerians //morrocans who seem to exclusively prefer blonde girlfriends who are shall we say on the heavier side.I always thought it was the skin contrasts that was the attraction? I dont know-my ex husband is chinese indonesian and you sure dont see many of them with a big hefferlump on their arms-that would be totally out of propertion!!!!
Blondes here in sydney tend to age really quickly due to the harsh sun. Its actually better to be not, or to stay out of the sun as much as you possibly possibly can.I always think brunettes are more attractive anyhow( yes because I am one haha)

Here in Dubai I have noticed that Egyptians don't have the greatest taste when it comes to women. BUT lebanese guys always hang out with the best looking girls ever.
They are even picky when it comes to one night stands!!
And it's amazing how "foreign/blond/white skinned" women fall for lebanese.

But when it comes to rich foreign khaliji/Emiratis, they RARELY go for "foreign" women. Usually Lebanese, Egyptian, Moroccan and Iranians.

I'd say from a female point of view, Iranian women are perfection when it comes to beauty. And I find that Iranian women here are every European/white skinned/"foreign" man's dream.
Generalization for the sake of the topic of course.

Hi Ngeg,

Nice talking to you for the first time, and I'm really sorry that you don't like my taste.

But I really find Nicole Kidman very classy, pretty, and attractive. I like the way she acts, and had a big crush on her when I was 14

Of course she's not the only woman in the world I find attractive. It's just that I tried to give (maybe somewhat.. I'd say.. unsuccessfully) an example.

It's interesting you mentioned Iranian women, because (sorry for my ignorance) I haven't had any interaction with any Iranian woman till very recently, and yes.. you are right.. many of them are really pretty. The other "discovery" I recently made are Pakistani women, some of them are very attractive too.

But at the end I would say that beauty is in the famous eye of the beholder - or do we exist in the eyes of the others? (Do you know the song of The Sisters of Mercy called "When you don't see me"?)

It was nice talking to you and I wish you a beautiful Monday.

Maz

Hi Frienda,

Sorry for my late reply, but i wasn't online in the last days - too much work and not enough coffee lol

Well, to start with, I'm Egyptian / German, and lived in 6 countries so far. I have been in Egypt for a year, and look forward to my next assignment in 2006, but have no idea where "they" want to send me next.

In reply to your question, I find it is a very interesting and keen observation, and - at the risk of generalizing - I think it could also be really well applicable in a some instances.

Could it be that the people in the examples you gave are like.. well like.. shy? lol

I know my answer isn't very intelligent and seems simplistic, but could it be that they don't have the means to approach "the beautiful Neiman Marcus/Bergodorf type blondes that look fresh out of a fashion magazine" as you beautifully put it?

I mean maybe it's because they don't speak the language well, because they don't have the financial means, or because she's just too good to be true - to the extent that they become speechless at the sight of such a woman?

Have a nice day,

Hi Ngeg,

Nice talking to you for the first time, and I'm really sorry that you don't like my taste.

It was nice talking to you and I wish you a beautiful Monday.

lol thank you

Emirati women are attractive too, I think. I especially like the way they dress, it gives this.. I would call it.. mystery.. in my opinion - but then I must confess that I never talked to one. Are they nice?

Aren't there an awful lot of Egyptian men in this world? How can we say that all Egyptian men like fat blondes? Or all Egyptian men like slim blondes. Or all Egyptian men love Europeans/Americans/ etc. Why don't we take a survey here on the board. All ladies with Egyptian men give us the specifics. Height, size, hair color, hair length, eye color, etc. I'm sure we will see that Egyptian men like men all over the world have different tastes depending on the individual man. I'll go first...

Height-5'6"

Size- 12/14 (and no I don't have enormous hips and ass)

Hair color-medium chesnut brown with auburn highlights (my natural hair color is medium brown, I had blonde highlights put in it but my habibi prefers my hair dark...hmmm he's Egyptian why didn't he love the blonde , it is no longer blonde)

hair length-I have longer hair, little bit past the shoulders with face framing layers

eye color-light brown

skin tone-fair

dark curly hair that I wear straightened-just about mid neck length, kind of choppy style shorter at the back of neck, with a long blunt fringe.
Fair skinned with freckles
green eyes

fair skinned....Melati.....how do you keep from burning there in Sydney?

I have to wear SPF 30 here in DC, and trust me, the sun is nowhere near as harsh here as Australia...

They are! But very spoiled, too. Lots of them work in banks and government projects and foreign men working with them are driven crazy by the Emiratis exaggerated perfumes and make up. The fact that they can look, stare and even flirt with them, but never date them frustrates foreigners as well.

(Btw, lots of Emiratis and Bahrainis are mixed with Iranians)

Anyways, it's widely spread in the gulf area that kuwaiti women are the prettiest of them all.

Hi Ngeg

It's funny you mentioned exaggerated perfumes, the secretary here is nice, but she suffocates me on a daily basis lol

I noticed many Egyptians complain about Kuwaitis and Saudi Arabians being kind of arrogant - is this true?

Bye,

Maz
