"Fat girls"... I find significantly overweight or underweight women to be extremely UNattractive because:

* It is very unhealthy. Heck just the other day I saw a report about the effects of diabetes, this man had lost toes because of it. And what causes diabetes type 2? Being fat and lazy causes it. Being fat causes all sorts of other health problems as well. Being underweight also causes health problems. Unhealthy people are unattractive.

* Fat people are often lazy and lazy people are no fun. OK sometimes a person has a legitimate medical reason for being overweight, but in the vast majority of cases, fat people are lazy lardasses. It is reasonable (statistically) to think that a fat person is *probably* lazy (but not always). Laziness is unattractive.

* Fat people often have a psychological problem that is causing them to be overweight. For example very low self-esteem or depression or other problems. Psychological problems are unattractive.

* Fat people are usually neglecting themselves (not always, as I said sometimes they have a legitimate excuse, but usually it is self-neglect). Self-neglect is unattractive.

As for the people who say things that amount to "It is OK to be fat", they need a good slapping. It is NOT OK to be fat. FAT IS BAD. Fat is very unhealthy. If I was significantly overweight or underweight, I would make it a top priority to fix it.

I've known many mentally healthy "overweight" people who walked everywhere, worked hard, took care of kids, and still have a problem with weight. I've known very neurotic people with a "healthy" weight who could not go to the corner store without taking their car, and yet they are thin. Weight doesn't ALWAYS correlate with mental health or physical exercise.

That said, I think it's good to be able to find ways to control your weight if that's what you feel you want, so that you can look the way you want to look.

I personally have no problem with fat. Sure it's unhealthy, but unhealthy in my view doesn't equal unattractive. I've met quite a few large ladies who I've been attracted to.

I don't find morbidly obese people attractive though. Again, not because it's unhealthy but because that's just not what I like.

Unattractive people (from a traditional point of view) are pretty much the only ones who would even give me the time of day, let alone a chance. It tooks me years to realize it, but now I work accordingly. From the time a years ago (in my pre-WP days) when I ended up kissing an unattractive girl while I was really drunk, the method of going for only unattractive girls has grown into a system. Despite the common impression, it is not based on deception, but on me and them being in the exact same situation: not being able to find a romantic partner. So honestly, what is wrong with two lonely people finding each other, and making each other's life happier?

You guys are hypocrites because you cry if someone makes fun of you because of AS problems and you are being cruel and ridiculing girl with weight problems. It's been proved that the more you diet the more your body metobolism slows down and the harder it is to lose weight. Dieting actually causes weight gain!

What a waste of brown hair...

Why did you have to ruin it by dyeing it blonde????

You have a really good point here, and I would like to add that what most people consider attractive does NOT match what I consider to be attractive. For example, I don't find blondies to be attractive at all (with a strong preference for black or brown hair), I don't like girls who are stick figures (they look sick, to be honest...), little or no makeup is preferred (an alternative is goth makeup, which can look so cool sometimes...), tough "don't mess with me" looks, etc....

It's also been pointed out that people tend to marry people of equal attractiveness (in society's eyes). I would say that a lot of this has to do with the fact that different people find different appearance types attractive.

Now I am quite asexual, but I do still find certain types of girls attractive aesthetically.

Easier said than done. I've been trying to lose 20 lbs and it is not easy. When you get in your 30's your metabolism slows down and hormones make it harder to lose too. That is why men lose weight faster than woman do. I walk on the treadmill for 1 hours and it says i burned 100 cal. and 100 calories is about the same calories is in a one apple.

It's not about dieting either, it's about adopting a healthy lifestyle. And as far as losing weight, if you take in less calories than you burn in a day, you're going to lose weight.

If walking on the treadmill isn't burning it off, try running on the treadmill. Might sound hard, but once you start building the right mucles up it gets easier and easier. If 90 year olds can complete marathons, we have no excuse.

Speaking of which I've been curious about your avatar. Are you Amish by chance? I think it's the hat. I was just wondering because if you are it must be really tough getting to a computer.

Trust me, its unbelieveable what they can pull off with some steel rings and horseshoes. A little bit of this and that, a rubber band, paperclips, maybe an ox yoke or two with the oxen to power it - bam! Instant PC.

No - I'm from the Antipodes. I don't think we have any amish here at all. Because the sun is quite harsh, we like wide brim hats, but yes, I have to plug my computer into the power offtake from the pedal radio (do a seach on pedal radio on google or wikipedia).

Incidentally, I had a look at Flagstaff on google (I had to rest first to get energy for the pedal radio). Looks a very beautiful place. My mind's image of Arizona is semi-arid, like here.
