Let me start out by saying that I am female, and I'm not fat. I am 5'7" and I weight anywhere from about 98 to 110 pounds. I have never been over 115 pounds. I do yo-yo between the 98 and 110 marks alot because I eat what I feel like. Personally, I'm not hungry often, but sometimes I get REALLY hungry for several days (PMS maybe?) and I eat alot. Most of the time I don't gain any weight during this time, but occasionally I do. I don't exercise much. About three or four times a month I go swimming for an hour or so. Not for exercise, but because I like to. Besides shopping, that's about the extent of my exercise! I guess I'm just lucky. It doesn't run in my family because my mother is a little plump, my aunt is plump and my other aunt is very big, and my cousin is very, very overweight. I just lucked out.
That said, I don't EVER make fun of overweight people. As I mentioned, I have alot of overweight family members. One of them, my cousin, has been plump since her early teens but she's gotten very big since she had kids. Her health is better than mine. Her cholesterol is lower, her BP is lower and she can actually walk further without getting out of breath than I can. Plus, she's just a darned nice person. I would never make fun of someone for their physical appearance. I was brought up better than that. I thank goodness that I had parents who had enough sense to teach me to be a human being.
I don't fault anyone for not being attracted to heavy people. I find myself attracted to all types of people, big and small, but I can totally understand why some people wouldn't find certain body types attractive. That's fine. What I can't stand are these snotty, self-righteous people who think that all overweight people are lazy or smelly or gluttons. Some of these same people are drug addicts, alcoholics, smokers, etc. Food can be an addition that is just as hard to break as smoking or drinking or snorting coke. And of course, there are people who are overweight for medical reasons. To judge someone just because they're fat or thin, ugly or cute, black or white... it's ridiculous. We are not our appearances. That's why the internet is so great. Until we post our pictures... on the internet, we all look the same. It's our personalities that make us here. And I've seen a few today that are hideously ugly to me.
Once I met this guy on the internet. He was sweet, friendly, smart... we had alot in common. We'd been talking for a few months, and he'd even told me he thought he was falling for me. I was very close to ready to meet him and possibly have a relationship with. Then he said something a couple of weeks before he was set to come down here to meet me. He was making fun of a fat girl. I asked him how he would feel if I got fat if we had a baby together and he said, "That's fine, but we'd just exercise together and get you back in shape." He went on to say that he wouldn't be able to deal with me being overweight for long and that we'd have to "do something about it."
That was it right there. End of story. Game over. I don't want to be with someone that loves me for my weight, by body, my appearance. I want someone that loves me for me. I may be thin and beautiful now (not saying I AM beautiful, but maybe, heh) but I'll age. I may gain weight, and I'll sag, get wrinkles, lose my youth and figure... but will he still be there? If he won't, then I won't. I never spoke to him again.
For those of you who are making fun of fat girls, I guarantee you that I could find SOMETHING to make fun of YOU for. You might be ugly, have pimples, have a small dick, have a big nose, a low I.Q., or just be rude. Oops! I think I just found it! You're rude and rude people are UGLY. There, I said it.
By the way, MissMina, you're a lovely girl! Thanks for sharing the pics!
