First of all, do not call us females, it is highly degrading.
Secondly, we are sensitive about it because of men who say they dont care about looks, then turn around and break your heart for no other reason than your weight!!! F*CKING MALES!!! |

Why are women, or females in general sensitive about their weight? can someone help me out on this one cause it puzzle mah mind!.
i don't know if sensitive is the right word, at least with how i feel about my weight. i want to be able to take my clothes off at night, look in the mirror, and like what i see. i want to take my clothes off in the day, and have my boyfriend like what he sees. being called names hurts, at least it does for me, and it doesn't even necessarily matter if it's someone with whom i'm close, or if it's a stanger. being told you're 'fat' is hurtful; being told you're 'lazy' is also hurtful. i find it has the reverse effect as well; instead of getting the person you care about to snap out of it and make healthy choices, they spiral downward, eat more, exercise less. (of course, not all weight problems stem from diet/lack of exercise). regardless of what we say, i think that (deep down at least) we all want to be liked, be admired, be found attractive. and when someone is telling us that we aren't (posters, media, friends, family, strangers) it does hurt. |

I learned a long time ago, your appearance outside is a reflection of the inside.
Once that lesson sunk in, my "sensativity" disapeared. Iffn I'm happy with who I am, I'm happy with how I look. |

That isn't what I asked. I look at what interests me and right now that happens to be him. Wonderfully evasive answer. I'd like to address something else I just read: I don't recall ever saying I was unhealthy, ever. Don't make assumptions about what you know nothing. I wasn't pouting, just stating facts. And I have nothing to be jealous of, have never been, nor ever will be that way. That's just ridiculous.
However, just prior to that, you stated: How can we not be a little sensitive? I was 105 when I got married. By the time the 2 baby came I had put on about 50 lbs. He didn't seem interested in me anymore. He would look at real skinny women and say they need meat on their bones, yet he married me. After the 3rd baby, it got to the point that I was lucky if we had sex twice a year. I wear a size 12, a little overweight, but average. Men don't look at women with my shape and whistle or cat call, etc. So how do you think we are supposed to feel about our weight, when things like that go on.
Did I miss something? |

Why whistle call or cat call? To me that insinuates that you are thinking with your little man in mind. Come over and have a decent conversation that doesn't involve screwing you.
Again, I respectfully disagree. A man whistles at a woman because he see something she has that is pleasing to his eye. If anything, it's a compliment. This was standard, common practice years ago, and women took the compliment as such. Today, they call it harrassment. |

Well done, dear Lady... That was very well said. My compliments!!

It's a man's world-men want what they want.
Women are told -to be attractive is to "look" a certain way.... Many of us don't fit into this mold and feel bad when it is not attainable. |

Lose the notion of blaming someone else for the problem, accept responsibility and deal with it, I say.
I agree, but the thing is, most people won't do this with any other part of their life, why the hell would they do it with their weight? I do have to laugh at women who use the word, "skinny". It always sounds so jealous and petty, even catty. Why does it sound jealous? Skinny is skinny. I've been skinny and even too skinny before. I was made fun of when I was too skinny. |

"Whatever"? That's the best you can retort with? Tell me I'm wrong! Don't give me any crap about being "sensitive" to your feelings. Tell me who YOU would rather look at -- the slim, slender, fit guy, or the fat guy? And I don't want to hear any of that bull about "it's what's inside that counts," either. I hate to tell you, but my boyfriend is on the heavy side, but he treats me better than any man ever has, and that is all that matters. good see you found someone that doesnt care about health and excercise good for you! So why the pouting? Why make the person that does work hard to stay in shape the bad guy/girl? because your jealous and its easier to call us shallow than look yourself in the mirror and call yourself fat. just be happy with who you are and stop making other people out to be shallow cause of your faults. this is what im saying, not that heavy people should give a damn what i think but why do fit people have to be shallow when we look for common interests? its about you sweetheart not me thats why and stop laying the guilt trip! I don't recall ever saying I was unhealthy, ever. Don't make assumptions about what you know nothing. I wasn't pouting, just stating facts. And I have nothing to be jealous of, have never been, nor ever will be that way. That's just ridiculous. If there is any guilt it's all on you. It must be hitting pretty close to home to get you all riled up about a simple statement. There is some things I would change about my body, but not much. I won't let any man make me feel unworthy about anything. You seem to have made the wrong assumptions about what I was saying and why I was saying. well i aint stupid and i can read between the lines deny all you want i never say these things ever, but i get tired of the whoas me crap. i post here and say this because its true. i see this "get to know people crap" all day and the lady doesnt even comb her damn hair. so dont tell me im trippin cause the truth hurts and our society could use a good dose of reality Wow, you sure understand women.

This was standard, common practice years ago, and women took the compliment as such. Today, they call it harrassment. I agree with you comment that it was common practice...all the way back to the caveman days I suspect. I do not agree with your comment that women took "cat calling" and "whistling" as a compliment. Maybe a few but not the majority. And there are men who agree, they see it as degrading and wouldn't like it done to their sisters. Why not try to get to know the woman? Compliments are great - but not when shouted or whistled in vulgar terms across the street and directed simply at her behind. Music Man if your whistling is meant as a compliment as you say, do you know if the women hearing your whistles percieve it that way? It is a matter of perception but when it doesn't stop after a woman says "No more" ...then it would be harassment. |
