Ok Sisters...not taking shots at you, but too often I hear you call yourselves "thick" when in actuality you are a bit overweight. Now, a lot of brothers like sisters with extra pounds, but let's be real here.
Being "thick" also does not intrinsically mean you have curves or "shape", because untold numbers of slim African women have derrieres and hips just large & wide as some so called "thick women". I guess the reason for my rant is because I have met too many sisters who I talked to prior telling me that they were "thick", when in actuality they were more than a few pounds over-weight. This happened rather recently again, which is why I am writing this now.
Anyhow, I know Black women have different body types and all that, but we need to start being honest. It will save brothers a lot of disappointment.
***Have any of the sisters here told a brother they were thick, to avoid saying they were a little overweight?...be honest.***
To be Thick: means you are not skinny or slim, but have more meat on your bones than these smaller women. "Meat on the bones" is not to be confused with the fat around the meat. "Thickness" ultimately is more meat on the bones without too much excessive fat, where the lean body contour (and perhaps muscle) definition is still reasonably seen.
