How would one say: "he who flirts with heavy women" in Spanish. We are having a disagreement over this one. Thank you.

i have never heard the word "flirtea" - seems to be an obvious Northamericanism

to flirt = coquetear

Hi Martin, you are probably right, but it is listed :

flirtear.

(Del ingl. to flirt).

  1. intr. coquetear (? dar señales sin comprometerse).

there is nothing at all wrong with referring to a woman as "gorda"; at least not
where I am in Mexico - indeed, here, gorda is commonly used as a term of endearment

Did you see that? Heidita used the word gorda when describing a woman? gender suicide. I thought earlier that you had insisted that we use the word gruesa? ¿Yo? No fui yo.

Even Maryemma had the tact to say "heavy" women. There has to be some sisterhood that I can report Heidita to. I'm sure that they can send someone to slip poison into her tea.

¡Socorro! Estoy temblando... LOL

Es que si le dices que es "pesada", eso es peor aún. Una persona pesada es "hard work", I was told in a thread you use that expression.

A mí gruesa me parece igual de mal que gorda, la verdad, jeje

el que coquetea con gordas lo aplasta un rayo? o se dice, lo parte un rayo? ¿cómo es la cosa?

In Spain we say "lo parte un rayo". I don't see how a lightning can squash (aplastar) a person.

Hi Maria, do you mean with fat women?

El que flirtea con/coquetea con/ se liga a / se quiere ligar a mujeres gordas....
