Sooo... I was just reading a post that mentioned something about witholding weight in the "online" scene. I am aware that this is probably the most common thing that people (especially women) tend to "leave out" when making profiles and meeting new people online.
But it kinda offends me that people would opt out of talking to someone based on their size! lol cuz that's kinda what it sounds like! I, for one, am fat/fluffy/flabby/lumpy/pudgy/overweight/chubby/veluptious/whatever you decide to call it! haha I am secure enough in myself to say it but i have this to add...
I am one of the people that totally avoids putting full body pics in my profile because i KNOW how people are--judge on looks first and if they're "hot" we'll check out the personality. lol I'd much rather be judged on my personality from the get go! I mean, why do we, as fat people, have to be cast aside twice as fast? We're still gorgeous in God's eyes right? I know... cheesy... but i'm curious! lol
And you cant sit there and say it's cuz we're lazy slobs and you want someone "active" haha I mean seriously! I'm the first to jump up and want to go to the batting cages or skiing or swimming or hiking or even just to take the dog for a walk! I go rollerblading every day in the summer for hours on end! lol i LOVE working out and being active--and i know i'm not lazy! (most days anyways haha) but also--i love food! haha is that a crime? Pasta is my weakness! And i know a ton of overweight people (no pun intended) that are equally active but yes, love food! lol
It just blows me away that we could be so harshly judged based on genetics or body chemistry. I mean... I'd look silly if i was 120 lbs! I'd be completely disproportionate! lol Altho i do realize some fat people are that way because of laziness and overeating... but they're still people too!
I'm not saying EVERYONE is like this by any means. The keepers aren't quick to judge anyone haha
And, the fact that you could like someone-a lot-and as soon as you discover their weight you're all like "eww" lol I mean c'mon! It's our fault you imagined nonexistant Miss Perfect? It's one thing if we flat out lie and say we're 120 lbs when we're really 420 haha but is witholding just as bad?
Sorry this is so long! lol It just kinda bugged me! I wanna hear everyone's HONEST opinions!! Give it to me straight out! lol
