I think what I felt was hypocrisy was the guys who were complaining that women only seem to care about the looks of the guys they dated ( the implication being they were not interested in these particular guys because of their size ), and yet those same men were specifically dissing entire categories of potential dates because of *our* size.

One guy actually emailed me, but his profile read, and I *do* quote, "I do not consider women of color attractive, nor do I feel that large women have more to love." Uh, dude-- did you not even LOOK at my picture? Let alone read my profile?

I see your point, though, about preferences, and I hadn't thought of it that way before, so I'm glad you mentioned it. Overall, I think I'm just late to the party of learning all this personals-ad stuff. :)
