Most of the men chiming in are more or less saying that looks aren't as important as most women and the media make them out to be, anyway.
If looks aren't important, then why the need to say "I like x"?

My statement wasn't one that was formed from this thread alone. I browse many forums, and this isn't the first time I've seen a conversation such as this pop up. In the rest of them, the general consensus was that curvy = good, everything else = bad.

Since we're being honest, here's my take on things. If you've got kickin' curves, awesome. Guys are going to be all over you. If you don't, well, too bad, so sad. Regardless of what people are trying to say, looks are important. It's a proven scientific fact. We're genetically hardwired to find certain shapes attractive. Unfortunately, those that aren't lucky enough to get the genes get kicked to the curb.
