I had to put my two cents in on this one -

Ditto to what everyone, especially Sharni, said in the thread.

People are rude and that is something that we all have to get used to - I personally think that I am a pretty hot chick with just a little more cushion for the pushin'. Thank you very much.

Now - off to have a Snicker's bar because I can dammit!!!! LOL!

You only have 1 life to live...so live it to the fullest!! Fuck the rude people! They got worse problems than us if they have to go around being plain old rude.

I'd just like to say that every damn one of you are totally sexy in my book...well, oh what the hell! Irish, DB, Grumble, Ozi and Niceguy too! ha ha

Rudeness and ignorance go hand in hand. Inconsiderate and stupid people can't help it...they're destined to prove to the world their lack of IQ and EQ. I get the skinny and balding comments. Does it anger me? Sure, and like you, it hurts me too. I've grown thicker skin over the years but still end up going home angry with myself for not saying all the things that I think up after the fact, but realistically, if I do that then I'm gonna end up issuing them a beat down. I'm better off just saying "Hey thanks...I never noticed my thinning hair before." Maybe I'll add something about being hung like a horse. ha ha That'll give them something to think about!

Enough about me...someone explain why nobody submitted sexy pictures with their posts!

Sharni,

It's just another of those cases of people who think they know it all,

and that as a consequence, think that anything that doesn't fit their

particular world view is wrong/bad/whatever.

This judgemental bullshit is part of a wider intolerance our world

is slipping slowly into.

Well now, that ^^^ ought to cheer her up!

People can be such assholes. They can always find something to rib other people about... too short, too tall, boobs too big, too small, too skinny, too fat, not enough makeup, too much makeup... and on it goes.

I spent 28 years being married to a man who is tall, dark and handsome... and who is in excellent physical shape. He looks GREAT, but he does (and did) absolutely nothing for me. Why? Because all of the above is just his GLOVE... what's inside of that glove sucks.

Now, I've got a wonderful man in my life. I love his glove, it's somewhat less than perfect (as is mine... oh man!!), but I love that cushy glove because I adore what's inside of it.

If someone doesn't like me because they don't like what they see, fuck 'em. I've got enough dear friends and I sure as hell don't need "stranger approval".

One more thing, keep this in mind... the plumper the berry, the sweeter the juice.

Unfortunately, I understand exactly what you guys mean.

Im overweight, diabetic (which adds to the weight), not on medicine (no insurance or job), 52 years old, and in need of viagra.

Add all this up and it doesnt create a very pretty (or sexy) picture. Which is one reason i've been a bit hesitant to post too many personal pictures although i'd love to do so. (love to return what ive received from you fantastic folks)

But reading some of the posts to this thread might give me the courage to start taking a few.

I love yall

Lazaruslong... I think posting would do wonders for you! I think you'll be surprised and pleased by the comments you'll receive.

I have never been a small girl, but I carry and have always carried my pounds very well.

I will never forget back in high school my senior year. I weighed a whopping 160 (What I wish I weighed now) and one of those stick people came up to me in the bathroom and asked if I was pregnant. I was mortified. I thought I looked good and that one comment sparked so much self doubt and pain that it took me awhile to get over it.


The way I look at it now is that even though I may not be what "Mainstream Society" says is attractive and pretty, doesn't mean that there aren't people out there that will find me attractive and pretty, or that I am NOT attractive and pretty. I have a husband who says so along with many friends.

I decided long ago that these people who make these comments are really just trying to find a way to make themselves feel better by being mean to someone else and it is still societally okay to pick on fat people. I realized that these people in the long run are very likely insignificant and so I make no excuses to them.

I am 245 pounds now, and I wear tight clothes, low necklines, and I take naked pictures that I happily and freely post on the internet(which I never did before). If anyone decides to tell me something I look them straight in the eye and simply say, "Did you hear me ask for your advice, help, or comments? Because I don't remember doing that." This usually stops them dead cold.

Not to say that I don't wish I weighed less, but I am healthy and that's all that matters. I do yoga and belly dance and lots of sex for exercise. I eat healthily and I keep a good attitude. That's good enough for me.

I've lost 60 lbs over the past two years, and (although I could lose more) it's remarkable the difference it has wrought in my life. Not the internal self-confidence (although it has)... but the most important thing is the *absence* of discrimination. I no longer have to wait to get helped by sales clerks, or to get a drink at the bar. In little ways, every day, people signaled to me that I was being discriminated against.

That's the worst part...and I still get it sometimes...since I am certainly NOT a size 4 (more like a proud size 12). So I understand. And it pisses me off too!

(((HUGS))) all

Wow... Hugs to all our BBW's here. I am appalled to hear that you receive these rude comments. As some of you know, I happen to be very appreciative of women with curves. If you want to read that as "Wow, Aqua likes fat chicks..." fine. Visually speaking, fat is not very defined. My wife is clinically obese, but I do not know one person that would look at her and say she is fat. I like all types of body styles and have dated short girls, tall girls, skinny girls with hardly any boobs, chunky girls with double D boobs, and a variety of sizes in between. It just happens that my preference in body style is curvier. I will say that there is 'too big', but I would certainly never make a rude comment to someone that was so, just the same as I would not make a rude comment to someone that did fit my personal definition of 'attractive'. I just want you wonderful 'larger' Pixies women to know that you have my support, and if you are posting pics you also have my undivided attention.

Very good thread Sharni. Fits my day perfectly. I just had a friend show up unannounced and when I mentioned how excited I was to go to the doctor next week and get ok'd to start excercising after the birth of my son, she says "Yeah I bet you can't wait to loose the weight and wear normal clothes again" !
Here I am in my pj's still. My husband laughed, not to be rude but because he couldn't believe she had said it. I'm not in my sweats because I'm fat, I'm in them because I've had 3 hours of sleep (not all at once) and haven't had a chance yet to go change. After she left my husband reminded me that she doesn't have kids. But I felt both fat and sloppy then. Oh well, there will always be stupid people I guess.
