Fat Potential (FP)

A criteria that men look for when dating a new girl. The potential for a girl to become fat/obese after having multiple pregnancy's or getting old.

A possible indicator of High or Low Fat Potential is looking at how fat the mother of the girl you are judging.
When you look at a young girl, and she's not fat nor skinny but you can tell that after a certain age or having multiple pregnancies, she will be a fat unattractive cow, that looks nothing like the girl you fell in love with. That is HIGH Fat Potential (FP).

Or when you meet a girl and her mom is still smoking hot, that can be low fat potential.

Hence some girls have high Fat Potential or low fat potential.
