Default Weight Watchers

Many of the women's profiles on web based introduction sites have inaccurate or old photos displayed making it hard to judge what that person might really look like. Surprisingly, these same women give their actual weight. Here is a chart that might help determine if her weight is within average norms. (I'm assuming that the "medium" and "large" framed women is referencing Gringas.)

Women

Ok guys, are you in shape or need to shed a few pounds before that trip South?

Men

Hmmmm the mens charts look on the light side... and the womens look on the heavy side. Blame it on the female scientist who came up with chart.

There is something wrong with mens chart or me. I am 6'0" and recent loss 15 pounds (from 205 - 190), I think I'm skinny now. I couldn't image being as light as 160 again. I don't see 30 pounds of fat I can stand to loose. The chart seems light for the USA.
