I looked again and it can indeed be used as an adjective.

I had a obese roommate who was admired by some Jamaicans. One of them said, “Where can I find me a woman like that?” They maybe equate it with health, or something.
My roommate was actually quite feminine, in spite of her weight. She had no trouble attracting guys.

If you needlepoint
Both hands are busy which helps
