A 6 foot man should not weigh over 185.


Black men are fat too.

This is simply not true. BMI is also a very poor indicator. I can share or send you some actual factual resources, but I assume the intent of this thread was not to address an actual issue but to gaslight and continue the gender war.....What do you get out of it?

There are no hard-stop absolutes but Somatotypes (body-types) are also not a myth.

My natural body type is Mesopmorphic. I'm 190cm tall (6'3") and 225-230lbs. My body-fat percentage is at only 13%. My body weight was also higher while not carrying excess adipose (fat tissue) and higher lean-body mass. Given I do compound heavy lifts (deadlift, squat, dumbbell bench), my body weight is also higher. I have zero mobility issues. If you are a male and have a broader, mesomorphic bone structure as well -- you can weigh more without having more or less excess body-fat. Also BMI means very little in any athletic realm.

You have to also include other very important factors West-Africans and their descendants (many African Americans) have the highest bone density in the world, second being Polynesians. This is why Osteoporosis in those of West-African (African American) women is almost unheard. East Africans a bit of a different story. Africans are not a monolith. This is also why many of those of West-African descent with lower body fat have a harder time with buyonancy (not swimming per say).

We need a culture change.
There's a general discussion to be had for all Americans in general, particularly when you look at everyone from circa America's 1970's you will see a lack of obesity. Food quality/type (processed sugar, GMOs, artificial additives), requirement of physical activity. This is generalized to Americans. Now, could there be cultural items that can add to this such as Southern Food, et cetera of course. That is a debate we can have, how about it?

For instance when I moved to NYC for work I couldn't believe the food desserts in some areas....Sometime it looked as if the local Bodega as all there was within reach for some. All processed sugar. It is not only a question of "race" but "class" and accessibility. Take a look at poor white and disenfranchised areas, think small towns, trailer parks, the level of obesity you will see there is in the 50%+ range.......

But just saying we need a culture change is disengenious. I think this was more about a veiled attempt to compare black women to black men, and make black women feel lesser, without

I'll share some examples......

"The average American woman 20 years old and up weighs 170.6 pounds and stands at 63.7 inches (almost 5 feet, 4 inches) tall."

Try again...

.....or like anything in America project all that internal hate as simply a "black people only issue". :LOL:

American Women Prior to ~1980. This was the norm.....

Outside of "culture" the quality and availability of food cannot be ignored for America's (Mexico is now the most obese country in the world).

Mexico passed the United States as the most obese country in the world. The prevalence of overweight and obesity is 16.7% in preschool children, 26.2% in school children, and 30.9% in adolescents. For adults, the prevalence of overweight and obesity is 39.7 and 29.9%, respectively.

Another Example:

Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) in the 1970s

You will notice a differeing of natural body-types, all are within healthy norms.

watching your weight is important but numbers don't always correlate with the actual status of your health.
