The extremes of weight can be equally repulsive. Someone who looks or is anorexic and someone who is obese for whatever reason both draw critics, rightly or wrongly.
What about the middle ground? Much much more is made of people who are a stone too heavy than a stone too light. Skinny people tend to come under the radar most of the time - i.e. most won't make a comment about someone who is a bit boney - whereas a girl with a muffin top is derided for daring to show her ample flesh.
So is it better to be too skinny for your body shape than too fat? Why?

Skinny birds are more 'chuckable' you can't do bedroom olympics with fatties it just don't happen 
Agreed - at least with a skinny bird if you throw them around they just kinda float - where as a fatty would put a hole in the floor.
also skinny girls can get to a wider verity of positions even if they do look like there 10yr old boys....
If you see a skinny person in the street, what do you think instinctively?
When you see an overweight person in the street, what do you think instinctively?
There is quite a disparity for me, in that I'll see a skinny person and maybe think they need to eat more. I see an overweight person and I castigate them for failing to have personal control. One is sympathy or at worst apathy about them, the other is almost always a poor judgement on their mental strength and health.
I am not necessarily talking about our partners here. Just people in general. People you come into contact with.
