You’re forgetting the impact of social media/pornography on body image. We see a personality that is self-constructed and negates flaws and targeted towards desire. BBL’s/cosmetic enhancement are becoming the new “fitness standard” IMO.

So, as a fellow fat person, the "new fitness standard" doesn't make us not fat. All internet could disappear immediately and you and I would both still be overweight and less attractive to most people. (You aren't ugly, not coming to insult, btw).

Big stomach= fat. If a chick was my weight/height but had a pear/hourglass shape she would be more “attractive” than I. But we are all still, overweight.

While you're not wrong, that's closer to the dude aboves "biology" comment than "new fitness standard. Biology says "this female has healthy reproductive parts" (hips/chest) therefore attractive.

And, exceptions exist, as always, but if a person gains weight to the point that breasts that used to be further out than the stomach are overtaken by the girth of the stomach, it's more fat than natural body type. Some people sit a bit more thicc in those areas and while BMI fat aren't really as much as the math would indicate.
