Agreed. It's not "American" DNA, at all, no. And the sad truth is, food that is bad for you is WAY cheaper and easier to store than food that is good for you. A lot of people are simply lazy and/or ignorant of how their bodies actually work, yes. And in America, kids are raised to eat the worst food, which their bodies get used to, so that when they grow up, their bodies don't feel nourished or fed when given anything lighter or better for them. It's an epidemic, true. But I was blessed with a fairly good metabolism and a positive outlook on life, so I can't judge them. I don't know the reasons for their weight, after all. The price of organic food is outragous, like you said :) And I still haven't figured out the anomaly for why good food doesn't taste as good as bad good for the majority. Even when children are young and unknowing, it takes effort to feed children vegetables. Common sense would say that our bodies would crave the food that keeps it well balanced and reject the foods that are not so beneficial. I suppose it's just another obstacle in life to teach us we can't be lazy and rely on our brains to dictate what is naturally good or bad, right or wrong Yeah, I've often wondered why a salad is like 5 bucks at a fast food restaurant, but you can get a fattening burger for like less than 2. There's something wrong with that. |

But see, many simply don't. Yeah, I've often wondered why a salad is like 5 bucks at a fast food restaurant, but you can get a fattening burger for like less than 2. There's something wrong with that. Dumb and low-self-esteemed. Not to mention lethargic. Yuppo folks, EASY way to control the masses! No I'm not a conspiraist... Just a punk.

some men just aren't attracted to overweight women...just like some men aren't attracted to skinny women..it's preference and their choice,and the biggest thing.... their life.

This simply comes down to physical attraction. Many people ( including myself ) simply aren't attracted to fat people. Just like other people may not be attracted to bald men, short men, tall women, women with short hair, thin women etc.

Just like other people may not be attracted to bald men, short men, tall women, women with short hair, thin women etc. Yea...but looks fade, confidence however does not. I'm thinking it is more confidence then appearance. For every 1 million people that don't like this or that, there is another 1 million that does or simply doesn't care. For a few I'm sure it is preference as you said, but for the most part no one wants to date the "I'm nobody" person. Of course they don't seem to be bothered by the "haha, told you so" cynic. |

I think it's a combination of both. Most people care about looks to some degree. I think very few people would date someone that they think is completely unattractive. Maybe unless that person is rich or famous. But that's another subject. |

For every one million that don't like something, there is another million that like it...the world is too diverse and populated to be able to say 'most people'. Unless you know 3 billion people, do not speak for "most". |

Unless you know 3 billion people, do not speak for "most". How is what I stated about looks any different than you stated about confidence. You stated most people don't want to date someone lacking self-confidence. Which I agree with. But I also think most people wouldn't date someone that they aren't at least somewhat attracted to as well. |

It's psychological, I can actually speak for most people because most people are attracted to confidence. I can't imagine most people going "oh, I just absolutely love the fact that he thinks he is ugly and not worth anything to anyone"...doesn't really make a lot of sense, does it? Whereas saying most people are attracted to physical traits cannot be spoken for...you don't know that, I don't know it...but I do know no one will be attracted to the person that doesn't think they are worth anything to anyone.

I guess we will agree to disagree. I can't imagine many people thinking "I'm going to date someone that I think is physically repulsive or gross". That doesn't mean looks are the only thing or the most important thing that they care about. I still think people can be interested in BOTH looks and confidence. It doesn't have to be just one or the other. |

It doesn't have to be just one or the other. Me too. But have you noticed it's become "in" in society to say "looks don't matter, it's about personality and confidence"? I always smirk when I hear that because I know it's bs; everyone cares what someone looks like- whether it's race, deformities, attractiveness, size, whatever. If that wasn't true, every "undesirable" person would have a mate and the whole concept of interracial or bbw dating wouldn't even be a concept because it wouldn't matter. We have terms for certain things to separate them from the mainstream because they DO matter. But it's become politically correct to say they don't. People do a search for certain requirements on here- god knows I do- so they can weed out what they're NOT looking for. There is no box that says confidence 1-10, personality 1-10, but other stuff is there- hair color, body type, ethnicity, etc.

And what is it about big women that turn a man off? Shows a lack of responsibility and care about your health. You don't realize how big America really is until you visit South Korea. Really...lack of responsibility, can you say stereotype?

And I still haven't figured out the anomaly for why good food doesn't taste as good as bad good for the majority. You're just not cooking right or comparing the right stuff. A good homemade lean beef burger is way better than a McDonald's burger, for about the same price. Some home baked chicken breasts taste way better than the peanut oil in which they cook fried chicken. Fruit and nuts taste way better than potato chips and candy bars. Yogurt and granola tastes way better than ice cream. Fruit juice tastes way better than Kool-Aid. OK, so Kool-Aid is way cheaper than fruit juice. Other than that, these are all about the same price. It's just a matter of the decision to stay home and prepare something decent, or drive to the local fast food joint. They take about the same effort. And they all cost about the same. And just watching what you eat isn't going to help you lose weight. I can watch what some of these big people eat: 5 slices of pizza, a dozen hot wings, 5 cinna-twist desert sticks, and wash it down with Coca-Cola. Then I can watch what they do for the rest of the day: sit on their ***. Then when they "try" to watch what they eat, it's more like 3 slices of pizza, 8 hot wings, 2 cinna-sticks, but wait....they replace the rest with a salad doused in some low-cal dressing and diet Coke. Ooooo. Nutritious, huh? And then wha'do they do? Still sit around the house all damn day. So, yes, the obesity problem in America is linked to most peoples' sorry-azz diets and an unwillingnewss to spend some time on their feet. There are people with genetic disorders, I'll give some that. But if those people would follow Fear's advice and quit complaining about their weight, they would attract people attracted to confidence, and maybe even get out a bit more, get a bit more active, and *gasp* burn off some calories that they aren't normally burning when they're sitting in their bedroom sulking about their genes. I'm not saying they will ever be as thin as they'd like to be, but at the very least, they will have a better time with themselves and their friends. |

oh theyre damn good...but just a memory now....they doubled in price in less than a year...and they were already expensive...
its bad enough with all the growth hormones they put in foods now but on top of it its sad how much more expensive it is to live a healthy well balanced life as compared to well the college on the go lifestyle...swear to god if my campus hadnt of been set in the hill country and my classes on opposite sides of campus id weigh a hell of a lot more than i do now....and childbirth doesnt help....im not the skinniest person...and im not the healthiest...but im happy and strong and fit. i wouldnt be me or find clothes sex and life AS enjoyable without my hips *** and breasts. but damn i DO miss the bod i rocked when i was a dancer. but thats just the ballerina in me and the fact that i was younger and more fit than now...i was actually trying to put weight on! |

Geography within the United States itself, also plays a big part in food culture. I live in the Pacific Northwest where seafood and asian markets are plentiful.
As far a "extra baggage" goes, I think it has much to do with the kinds of activites people find in common. Athletic people are usually more confident, more healthy, and get out more often. Regardless of how much money they make... what they spend the rest of their time doing and how they feel about it has a huge effect. Thinking of a high-energy dog as an "activity partner" might be a good idea to help someone work out and get out more often... while sporting an I-pod for instance. Obviously, all of this assumes you can take the time and pay the expense. For me personally, a good attitude counts for a lot. A person not willing to break out of the box once in a while is simply less exciting. |
