So I've about had it with this community's/city's/country's obsession with size. I've read a few too many blogger entries with lines such as, "ew... she's such a cow," and "what a bloated whale carcus" (last one's word for word). Yet a woman in Brazil DIES from being too skinny, and I don't think anyone would have made fun of the way she looks. In fact, I was frightened by the fact that I didn't think she looked that bad in the pictures I saw of her. Her BMI was 13, she weighed as much as a 12-year-old girl should, but societally? Looked normal. You know what, DC? I would rather be overweight than starving myself to fit your stupid, superficial ideas of what a woman should look like. Grow up and expand your mind like a centimeter...

I'm quite sick of it, too. Entirely too much discussion about what a "proper bangable size" is. Disgusting. Couldnt agree more *stands and applauds*
I get sick of how much emphasis is placed on "babes" being "hot" by guys that are fat, ugly, and stupid. Why do ugly dudes think they deserve "hot babes"?
I refuse to like anyone who weighs more than 100 lbs. and enjoys food. Take that! :-p
honeykbee: It's just ridiculous. Like they think they are so good that any girl they want will just spread their legs for them.
Jess: I know. You know what, stupid guys?! You don't meet MY standards, so stop judging me.
emily: Well, that's sad. Because I know you weigh more than 100 lbs and so do I and I thought you liked yourself and me... [pouts] Australia must have tainted you. :-)
Our friendship is built upon a foundation of lies and self-loathing!
Actually, I spend a lot less time caring about what people think about me than in HS or college (or even a year ago). I’m done caring about the thoughts of shallow people…most of the time.
Lies!!! LIES!!!!!
And that's good. I try not to care. There's still some self-trepidation, though.
