Seconded! So much. I've been getting back into online dating lately and I'm seeing this more and more. It's like redefining "curvy" and "average" wasn't enough. Everyone has adjusted to the new norms they've established in how to creatively describe being a fat fuck, and now they want to take refuge from the realty of their adipose by blatantly lying about it.  What I can't understand, though, is why they think this is a viable strategy for attracting people. Do you think they're just stupid? Are they more concerned about protecting their fee fees than attracting a mate? Or do these people actually believe their own bullshit? I would love a dating site that used BMI or percent body fat in lieu of subjective descriptions, or maybe the ability for users to weigh in on physical descriptions' honesty/accuracy. Like you'd see "(actually) fit" or "average (overweight)," or maybe profiles would show a self-description and the average of visitors' assessments side-by-side. I'd also love to be able to flag people for catfishing.  I've been on a few dates with women who turned out to be carrying 30 lbs that weren't apparent in their profiles. It's always so disappointing and awkward. The consequences for being deceptive and wasting people's time should follow these assholes around. EDIT: Fixed some rage-induced typos and cleaned up for clarity.
