Girl with pot belly
34% Normal
115 Comments

I'm a girl in college, and I've heard that most students gain the Freshman Fifteen when they first attend college. I used to have a pretty flat stomach, but now its a bit softer because I'm no longer on the cheerleading team (I haven't changed my eating habits or anything). I've always liked to poke my friends (mostly girls) who have some belly fat. I also saw the movie "Pulp Fiction" the other day, and there was this scene where a woman talked about how pot bellies on women are sexy.

I've been thinking of eating more so I can make my belly bigger. I don't know how big I want it, but it sounds fun. Should I?
Do you think it's normal?

Putting on weight is easy, but taking it off is the harder.

If you're happy confident with the way it looks, then by all means go for it. I'm one of those guys that would rather have a girl thats a little chubby that one who looks like a coat rack.

While I like the look of a rounder belly I advise you not to try to alter your weight to change your look. Beauty works better the other way, living by your own standards and letting your body follow.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions about why your belly might be a little softer now. In my experience girls always put on a little more weight in college.

As Fabian said in Pulp Fiction, "...on a woman a pot belly is very sexy. The rest of you is normal.Normal face, normal legs, normal hips, normal a**, but with a big, perfectly round pot belly. If I had one, I'd wear a tee-shirt two sizes too small to accentuate it." Butch seems less than thrilled at the idea of her having a gut and comments on how he would punch her if she did have one. Her retort is "I'd smother you. I'd drop it on your right on your face 'til you couldn't breathe."

Pots on women are sexy so long as they can maintain them. If you feel you want to get a potbelly for the sake of attractiveness then by all means, go right ahead. Ultimately, not everyone will agree with this decision you have made for yourself, but it is your decision. If you want to have a pot, then do it and damn what everyone else thinks about it. It's your body, your decision and your life.

You should keep your belly. Whenever you are in doubt, just put on some Harry Belefonte and beat on that sucker with both hands while doing the calypso...works for me...

My girlfriend used to have a pot belly. Then we got married and had a baby. She got skinny, but then she let herself go. She is almost 250lbs. A pot belly might be a sign of bad things to come.

Fat women have better pussies, I guess all the fat shims it up and gives it texture all the way in. You just have to get past looking at all the fat...

By all means eat all you want! Pudding is a pretty good way to get a bigger belly. I used to be a toothpick until I started eating vanilla pudding! I say YES! Pot bellies on women turn ME on at least! Good Luck! I also think Sumo wrestlers are hot. Female sumo wrestlers.

i understand.

you americans are pretty much stuck in a state of obesity and its not about to change anytime soon.
So you might as well deceive yourself with the thought that "it aint that ugly".

Good thinking.

I LOVE POTBELLYS ON GIRLS, it's the sexiest part of a woman!
Comment Hidden (show)
I wouldn't recommend a pot belly for obvious health related reasons, however....a little curvature, especially below the belly button is very sexy on girls. Completely flat bellies aren't at all sexy.
Comment Hidden (show)
a little extra weight is not a bad thing in my mind, i like girls with a bit more shape, not too fat but not an anorexic either, so eat a little more, but dont overdo it, just enough to get a shape that screams sex appeal

It's not healthy that's for damn sure. I wouldn't suggest doing that,I have a lil bit of a belly,and thunder thighs,and have had it since I was about 15. Yes, some guys find that attractive on me,and I'm sure almost any guy wouldn't care,but still I have tried to lose my fat for years through lots and lots of exercise,and even changing my diet to almost nothing at all ( I don't do that much anymore),and for the life of me I still cannot get it off. I've tried crunches,and even going to a gym. Everyone keeps telling me it's too late,and I'll just have to settle,or get lipo. Don't do it! you will regret it,unless of course you can go weeks without eating,when you decide you want it gone.

Personally I wouldn't do it. Most people consider a flat stomach more attractive than a flabby one, and belly fat is unhealthy. Also it might be easier to put it on than to get it off again.

There is a weird niche in porn for fat fetishists. Just YouTube search sexy weight gain and you'll see so many things. If you feel like you want to get fat, go for it. All I can say though is that unless you want serious health problems in the future (even if you loose weight) don't pass 250lbs.

okay to the people calling her fat i dont think shes trying to have a complete muffin top. i think shes talking about the tiny pudge lots of skinny girls have below their bellybutton. chill out people seriously. dont be suck A*****les
Comment Hidden (show)
I honestly think that that is somewhat attractive. However, a girl who looks like she's more than 2 months pregnant with a pudding baby is pretty unattractive.
Comment Hidden (show)
Well, you can do it if you like. Just make sure it doesn't get unhealthy.

I think the little pot belly is very cute. You should eat cookies and milk or tea before bed. Do you like your boyfriend to touch your belly?

That's nasty. If you get too fat a guy may try to stick it in your bellybutton instead of your vajajay!!! =(

Just ask yourself "Do I want to be attractive? Or ugly?" If you want to be ugly and have men feel repulsed by your gelatinous, bulbous stomach, then by all means, put on the pounds.

Pot belly's are hot. But I believe that whether it is natural or not for people to be attracted to it is no longer the question: people just want an ideal.
You'll have more guys giving you attention if you were skinny, but you'd have better quality guys (intellectual, respectful etc) if you had a bit of a gut.

keep in mind that Pulp Fiction was written by Quentin Terrantino, Bruce Willis didn't actually say those words. But anyways, it is normal for girls to gain weight in the hip/belly area because our bodies are preparing for pregnancy, it happens as you get older. Just stay sexy!!! Your only sexy if you feel sexy!!

Do what makes you happy. Personally I like a flat stomach and a nice juicy round booty. Pot bellys turn me off. You do what makes you happy. Just take a look at momma though coz that's how you'll look in a few years. Always take a look at a girls mom... Chances are that is what your girls going to look like later in life.

Dude, having a potbelly doesn't make you obese. I am underweight, but I have a bit of a potbelly. It just means you are all soft, and squishy, and I like being squishy. It beats being super skinny and feeling like cardboard. Now, if I could only get some fat on my ass.

That girl in Pulp Fiction says she wants normal tits, normal ass, normal everything, just a perfectly round pot belly. What does that sound like to you? Pregnant!!! She wants to have a baby, not to have some sexy pot belly all the time...

I would have to disagree... i for once have to put on at least ten pounds by july so i can leave for Marines boot camp and its been so hard because no matter how much i eat i don't gain any.
Comment Hidden (show)
Put on a little weight to your stomach. It is cute. Keyword: Cute. As opposed to Desirable.

It is genuinely, mutually reassuring to both genders...To a small degree. It is not sexy in the least. Quantify it. It's sexy only to the person sad &/or desperate enough to lie to you about it.

No-one is an archetypal, glossy magazine cover.

The world would be an awful, stagnant globe of encrusted stone covered with shallow, ignorant strands of pathetic, ignorant flesh otherwise...

That said...You're clearly a fat, blubber-bellied monstrosity yearning for the attention of physically well-defined deities like me.

Type less, Jog more.

first of all, pulp fiction is amazing, and second, a little bit of belly fat on a girl is hot as hell, not like fat ass fat, but, like the girl says on the movie, a perfect petite sexy pot belly, i love it :) hha, go for it

thats a good point, but at the same time, they were having oral sex, not sex sex
Comment Hidden (show)
If you want that big, round belly, just get yourself pregnant. Getting yourself fat on purpose is not healthy, physically or mentally. Actually, don't get pregnant--that's a bad idea too. Put that desire on hold, for your body's sake and sanity's sake.

No, pot bellies are not sexy. Do not put on weight on purpose. That was a movie, not real life.

Pot bellies are disgusting. I wouldn't go anywhere near a girl with a pot belly. Yak.

Also, you are old enough to be in college, but at the same time stupid enough to take that line from Pulp Fiction seriously. Firstly, Tarantino was making fun of that character - she was obviously playing a retarded girl in that movie. Secondly, Tarantino himself is one of the most fucked up people on this planet. So how could you have taken that shit seriously?!

I think you should totally gain a belly. A girl with a nice pot belly is so sexy and amazing. I think you should keep us all updated on your gain with pics and things
Comment Hidden (show)
You know, in trying to think of an answer for this question, I realize what a hypocrite I am. The truth about me is that I really dislike fatness. I myself obsess about weight. That's my own issue. The first thing I wanted to say was hell no don't gain weight if you've got a good thing going for you already. Why make yourself different than what you already are? But I guess that's just what people do when they try to lose weight. I guess I've just submitted to the Hollywood ideals. I love thin women. Not only do I feel the need to be one, but I am extremely attracted to them. You do whatever you want, as long as you know you'd be okay with yourself afterward. All I know is that I could never do that...on purpose.

Go for it - pork up. I know of a few guys who have a real craving for fat chicks - they think they go off big time. Probably comes from the low self-esteem they get from being so fat. Maybe your self-esteem will take a real dive too when you fatten up.

Looks are soooo deceiving , pot belly , fat ass , big boobs , who cares it's all about how you carry whatcha got , I hear alot a comments on guys don't like fat chicks first , not talking fat , belly , second I guess some guys would rather listen to a woman b*t*h all the time about there looks or not eat at dinner cuz they don't want to get fat THere B-tchen cuz there hungry ,so no not all guys like skinny , it's aboutmore than that , don't do anything on purpose tho your bodys still doin it's thing you'll grow into it , in 5 years you'll b like damn I look better than I did in college it is what it is Deal with it

I weigh 70kgs and I have a pot belly. I prefer to lose abit of my belly,I would be happy if I just lost 5kgs, but my goal is to lose 2kgs. Not healthy to lose to much in 1 go. I have a small waist, my ass sticks out LOL and I really dont like my double chin. My double chin is the only thing that really bothers me. I'm exercising every second day and only drinking water. I eat takeaway maybe once or twice a month. I use to weigh 50kgs, I am happier having meat on me then when I was thin.
Comment Hidden (show)
It is very hard to lose the weight, but for me it took years for me to gain weight because I was thin when I was little. Being abit big arent a problem being obesity is a problem. I dont have a problem with big chicks us long us they are eating healthy, if they eat junk food and dont exercise then I lose respect coz they are not looking after themselves and some obesity people just sit at home and sit in front of the tv.

Alright here's the truth:
1) Don't listen to anything anyone else has said because they're all bias.
2) What I recommend you do is just continue eating how you're eating. Don't change your diet. You're only in college, your metabolism hasn't slowed down yet. Don't try to stay skinny because it's "attractive" or because "you'll get men" or because "other girls will be jealous," but certainly don't try to gain weight because "it's sexy" or "men like pot bellies." Just be content with the way your body is. It was made a certain way genetically- you either have a regular metabolism, a fast metabolism, or a slow metabolism. Your background also affects your ability to gain and lose weight. "Healthy" may equate to "pot belly" for some women, or it may equate to "thin" for others. Just keep your body the way it is normally for you, why would you try to change it? The NATURAL human body is beautiful. Whoever said "pot bellies are the most attractive" or "skinny women are the most attractive" is completely stupid and cannot appreciate the human body as a work of art.
So girl, stay with how your body is naturally. If you like working out because it releaves stress and makes you feel good then do it! If you find that induldging in food makes you feel good and makes you less stressed than do it! Don't try to change the way your body is naturally because it's "more or less attractive." All bodies are beautiful works of art reguardless of shape or size.
