However, I agree with the poster. I think he is talking about the wife who turns 30 cuts her hair short gains 30 lbs because she eats more and moves around less and won't put on lingerie or a bikini because she is constantly saying, "I look fat."
What do they expect the husband to look at?
Women should realize that the looks of a mans wife is a status symbol. I'm not saying its right, but anytime your buddy has a better looking wife or girlfriend, he has one up on you.
Besides, those big panties make me puke.

Well this is all about perspective, too.. If he's a loving husband with half a personality, why wouldn't he say "Sweetheart, I think you have a weight problem, let's work on it together". It's pretty easy to stand on the sidelines and hurl insults, but it's harder to make a stand for someone you claim to love and help them through a difficult time. THAT in my mind shows more character than sitting around calling people pigs.
If a man loves his wife, shouldn't he be willing to speak up and help her get her health back? No man is an island, and most wives I know support their husbands in a lot of things.. funny how in MANY cases the support is not returned, but on the opposite page, all they get is criticism.. Yeah that's gonna motivate her to put down the twinkies and get on the treadmill.. It's only feeding the cycle (literally and figuratively). Fortunately, I have a wonderful, loving husband who has been supportive of me in all my decisions. I feel REALLY REALLY sorry for the women who have narrow-minded, self-centered husbands who are quick to criticize and slow to help.
