I also use the term 'hate' loosely too. I don't really hate fat people. But damn near close.
Anyway, you all sound a little defensive. Dating a fatty? Have one in the family or something? |
lol you are the one sounding defensive jenny...
Maybe you were once a fatty? |

I couldn't really care less how people present themselves when it comes down to it- I mean, it can be very telling about your personality, but I am just saying it's by no means my first or final judgment of them. Even overweight people can be attractive - perhaps not "sexy", but I have known people who are fat and more than make up for this fact with gleaming, often hilarious, personalities.
I really do loathe fat people who are so incredibly lazy, it's obvious they are fat merely out of laziness and they let this affect all of their other daily behaviour as well. Like when you want to walk somewhere with friends and the fatty in the group ing whines about it or refuses to walk because their legs hurt or somesuch. GRRRRRRRRRRR.
But just the same, I despise waspy people who work out incessantly and feel the need to hold everyone else to this standard because, you know, they're just soooo attractive. Ugh. |

Yeah, 100% total copout. You might buy into that bull, but I don't. Looks ARE a reflection of how a person feels about themselves. When I see a person who looks at slovenly and unkempt, or just not as well kept as they used to be - to me that says they don't care as much about themselves, not that they're "comfortable and happy". |
It's not a matter of "buying into that bull": it's the simple fact that I've experienced it in another way.
For example, earlier this year I was caught up with my research and I couldn't possibly be arsed to iron my clothes. Sometimes, I'd pull all-nighters and wouldn't shave in the morning/afternoon. I looked well shabby, but did my looks reflect the way I thought about myself? In a way, I didn't care about how I looked to other people, so you could still make a case if you want to defend this idea, but you'd be hard-pressed to explain why someone who usually spends an hour at the gym every single day would feel great while he also looked rather scruffy.
Likewise, the way my fiancée looks at me usually matters a lot more than any criticism I may receive from another person. So, let's suppose I gain some more weight (I did fatten up a bit in the beginning our relationship) and my fiancée doesn't change her attitude towards me. Why would I have to care if looking good to other people is not among my top priorities?

Yeah, right. Fat people are way more obnoxious and undesirable than thieves, rapists, murderers and lawyers! |

Oh, I get it. You have to see fat people naked every day and, after years trying to cope with this dreadful routine, you saw one fatty too many and you're now organising a crusade against fatdom!
Incidentally, the latest fat person also had the pox. |

Yeah but I already know you don't care about how you look to other people. Sneakers with a suit, etc. :o |

I disagree - these very same people likely have low self-esteem in the first place, and so resort to comfort-eating to make up for even their latent relationship stress. Insecurity rears its head worst when people are supposedly in "secure" relationships. Bitches be crazy, but at least the fat ones have a leg to fall back on, even if it's a hollow one, at that. :o |

Sooo, comfortable = being fat/unfit and lazy? Because that sure as hell doesn't make me feel comfortable.
I think that's a really horrible copout. No wonder so many people have ty relationships, because just like so many other areas in life people don't want to put continual effort into anything.
I bet all people who say the spark is gone from their relationship are fat and/or gross slobs. |
jenny you sound like you have serious weight issues... i personally entirely disagree, not because I, or my gf are overweight (i'm actually extremely underweight and trying to fatten up :p ), but because superficiality is more of a 'pox on society' than your morbid fixation on people's physical appearances!
why is it so important what people look like, and further, how much they weigh!?!?!
as lira and i have been saying, most people are able to get over this disturbingly shallow fixation when they find someone who will accept them as they are. Once they have that they realise that appearances aren't everything.
Surely you already know this, so you must be trying to say something else...?
surely you can't be boiling the entire scope of human interaction into weight, and physical appearance... :eyes: :conf:
as lira said maybe you are that much of a capitalist, but jesus... :haha: |
