A picture of a fat woman is editable, even though that's what the topic of this 10-page thread is about?

When the purpose is to incite instead of discuss, yes.

I don't understand what your point is.

Topic title is "would you get with a girl if she was overweight".

blatherskite posted a picture of a fat woman

Sinsboldly editied it out for whatever reason. Definitely not off-topic as far as I know...

I wasn't aware of that, seeing as I got here after the post was edited. I don't know why they would edit a picture like that out, I'm pretty sure if it was an image of a thin girl that wouldn't have been edited out. Everyone would be talking about how hot she is. It gets to the point, where I have a difficult time seeing thin women as beautiful anymore. I see myself as beautiful as a fat girl, and see people who are fat like me as beautiful. I guess I figure the thinnies already have more than enough people praising them for their looks.

Half the article is true, a third of it is misconstruing and manipulating language to change your perception of a "fact", and a sixth of the article is lies.

For example, the buying-into and subsequent failure of nearly all diet programs is the failing of the companies, whereas the need to buy into diet programs instead of limiting oneself and exercising is the failure of the fat person.

And what the hell is with these arguments from popularity? Because 120 million Americans are overweight, that makes it okay? That makes less sense than believing in god for the sole reason that 5 billion people happen to believe in some form of god or gods.

The way that the pseudo-scientific health organizations and drug companies have reacted to the so-called epidemic is despicable, but

Quote:

The researchers who estimated that obesity is costing us more than $100 billion a year in medical costs came up with this figure by calculating ALL expenses associated with treating type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, hypertension, gallbladder disease, and cancer. They ASSUME that if we get heart disease or breast cancer, it is because we're fat.

There is actually a significant amount of evidence pointing to these being caused by obesity.

Quote:

THE TRUTH ABOUT DIETS: One oft-cited study has found 95% of people who diet to lose weight put it back on within two to three years.

Again, this is the failure of the companies because their diet programs don't work. It is ALSO the failing of the fat person because they need a diet program and cannot simply regulate their own goddamn food intake.

Quote:

Studies have shown that people who are heavy and fit are far healthier than people who are thin and never exercise.

DUH! I could have told you that. But when was the last time you saw a fit fat person? That's right, you don't. They also forget to tell you that someone who is thin and exercises would be far healthier than someone who is fat and exercises.

It is now my personal mission to dissect and debunk this entire article, because apparently fat people can't educate themselves. I'll get back to you on this.

So how has your debunking mission gone? I suppose you've had to accept the reality that what is on www.bigfatfacts.com are actual facts and reality.

and that is why I edited the picture, not because of fat or thin, but because it was put up for ridicule.

Maybe you could've left a note under the edit, explaining that.

I prefer big girls. So yes, it would be a definite. Give me a fat chick over a skinny girl any day.

More cushin for the pushin'! And my note wasn't necessarily for ridicule. It was seriously asking who wouldn't tap that... even though I would've answered in the negative... "I wouldn't."

Yes i would, if i liked her - but it has nothing to
do with "desperate" - if shes a really nice and
sweet girl and we "click", then i like her and all
of her, big or small

edit--
i suddenly got very unsure if i have
already made a post in this thread
a while ago...anyway, i`ll leave this
here - sorry about that

I don't know about fat girls being desperate. I'm fat and it hasn't been hard for me to find attractive men who are ready and willing. It's just a matter of me being interested/observant enough to realize this and take them on.

If someone's not attracted to me because of my size, then fine. I wouldn't want to date them. But the attitudes some people have about fat women are, well, disgusting.

I think that beauty transends the traditional 36-24-36 or the skinny stereotype. I find a lot of (and I have to be really careful here so I don't inadvertantly offend anyone) bigger girls to be very attractive. Plus, if you limit yourself by discriminating, you miss out on a lot of really great people and perhaps a potential soulmate.

If I loved her then hell yes I would. I would rather date and make love to a kind overweight girl than a bitchy skinny one.
