Since this thread is concerned with whether one would marry someone in the military I am not completely sure how your question seriously relates to military men and women who, as part of that tough path to follow, are required to maintain height and weight standards. However, from my point of view, I have never met a woman who weighed 300 pounds but I have met, formed friendships with, and dated women who considered themselves very overweight. I preferred to think of them as shapely. Please understand that I am not into fat, and conversely I am not into skinny. I am into women who are attractive to me. I would like to think that I would make my judgment on a lady's attractiveness based on criteria a bit broader than her dress size. Probably the sexiest woman I ever met was rather "chubby", but she had an awsome intellect, a wicked sense of humor, and a personality that attracted me like the well known moth to the flame. When I met her she was a grad student at Oxford, and things might well have developed into something permanent except that when I came back to the States she stayed in England. She eventually married a hell of a good guy (damn), and now has a successful career in merchant banking in London while her husband is a sought after barrister who will likely make QC in a couple of years.
