BMI is incredibly lenient for women. Many more petite framed women, especially of certain ethnicities have an 'underweight' BMI yet normal bodyfat %. It could easily be lowered to 16-23 rather than the current 18.5-25, no harm done in my opinion.

You hit a good point that I myself have been led to believe, fats are always horrible to be with, treat their partners like shit and are just not worth even saying hi to.
Even now, I have a young friend (20) who is dating a massive, childish pig and she doesn't like him talking to other women, is terrible with money, is extremely insecure and tries to "big" herself up like she is hard when she is a fragile, sad act loser in reality. I am worried about him because they are moving in together and he will be giving her access to his bank accounts :( I did tell him I didn't think that was a good idea but people have to make their own mistakes I guess.

I like thick women. My wife is thick. Here's the thing, though: when I say thick, I mean the original definition that had a muscular connotation as opposed to the current bullshit the fats have done and stolen the word.
They stole curvy first, fitness people moved on to thick, and now they're stealing thick. I'm tired of it.

Fucking this. Fats have taken thick and made slogans like 'thick (fat) thighs save lives'. Fuck your shit, it was used to describe muscular legs.

That's an average? Dude - a huge chunk of the girls you date are underweight, possibly dangerously so. There's nothing good with that extreme either.

BMI is good for telling when someone is fat but the bottom end is not so accurate anymore. BMI was designed mid industrial revolution so there were a lot more factory jobs before machines. Here is a dexa scan that someone posted on reddit that shows a normal but obese body fat %. This is pretty much your average office/couch potato.
That's a guy. For women BMI is even more lenient. Sedentary people don't have a lot of muscle mass and that's fine but that doesn't mean you should replace it with fat to meet an outdated measurement. Women and some dyel guys can certainly have underweight BMI and be perfectly healthy.

Maybe he was lying about his feelings toward morbidly obese "women" and would have kept fattening you up if you gave him a toehold. Feederism is a very twisted fetish.
I'm glad you got out, and I hope they both die.
