Dear site managers,
Please add some more descriptions to the body type we can choose from . The choice is limiting and does not allow to accurately describe someone's body, there are more than just 6 body types, and when one is forced to choose form the 6 it ends up being misleading.
Thank you,
Sincerely,
Veronika

Yeah, I'd like to be able to specify that I'm skinny beyond the normal standards of skinny.

I'd like an option for "Skeletal".

Perhaps you should ask Zee of Zee's Pub (in the "Coffee Houses, Bars & Chit Chat" forum) how many types of bodies are buried out in the back of her pub. :tongue:

Visit Zee's Pub to understand the joke. :banana:

I complete get what you mean. I'm 5 ft 6, and I weigh 7st. So I could get easily mistaken for a skeleton, if I was hiding in a closet. laugh Not thin by choice.

Additionally if women and men would use accurate and up to date photos, full body photos that actually represent their visual appearance and not use emphemisms such as " a little extra" " a few extra pounds" when the person is obese and that is at 70% of the postings on some sites.Denial is unfair and misrepresents a person and hurts both parties at the first meeting.. Sad but now i only try to meet women who post various body photos to eliminate the numerous overweight and i mean some of 180 too!! Mooooo...

Post/ask for full length pictures, rather than worrying about using one word to describe a body type.

I'm sure mooing at women is going to help.

I resent that you think a weight number is important. I weigh much more than I look. My doctor; who is very wise; says its about keeping inches off not what shows on the scale. As for women not using up to date photos; I would think the men need to do the same. Lots of men show up with a stomach bigger than a 7 month pregnant woman and they say " a few extra pounds". Maybe they should say "a heck of a lot of extra pounds". laugh
