Yes, I know that it's because "they are fat" but what is it about fat on a woman that revolts a man?
If you want to rephrase the question, why do men prefer thinner and toned women?

And I know I'm generalizing when I put this label upon all men but I have come to believe that it's actually quite a well-spread opinion.

I mean obviosuly most of americans, canadians, europeans are born in countries where they don't have so many problems getting a good job or lifestyle, but if you go to some place like Africa, you will realize that the life there is pretty different and that a lot of people who are actually spending a lot of $$$ in big mansions, expensive clothes, cars and unnecesary things (not really "essentials to life") don't even think that they acually could save a life with all that money.

It would seem to me that the services surrounding health care would be motivated to decrease their costs and prices to compete with each other for patients. For example, the cost of hospital care skyrockets compared to wages, products and services in other non-health care areas. Even my insurance company would likely send me to one hospital over another if the costs were less for similar care. What gives? .

I guess I'm asking what's the difference between a "Federal Reserve note" and a "U.S. dollar bill." They don't just mean government bonds, do they?

For this edition (the first of hopefully many) I want to know what people would change about the way our government is run, remember you only get to change ONE aspect. Be creative and insightful.

I lived in Florida my entire life and about a year ago I moved to Utah. Once I got here nothing made sense anymore, I couldn't seem to feel happy again, even doing the things I loved, and for about a year I haven't felt any emotions and when I do they are weak. I basically feel like I'm dead but still moving. how can I feel happy again?

I don't make friends easily. In fact, at the present I only have 1 'friend'. And she is really not that great of a friend imo. We talk once in a while. I just find that I don't have anything in common with most people. There are people that try to become my friend usually moms are my daughters. But, I'm just not very open to friendships. They eventually stop trying after I turn down invitation after invitation. I just feel that I have nothing to talk about. And would rather remain quiet rather than say something that isn't important. and I can never find anything important to say lol. I'm not unfriendly. In fact, I am a people person where jobs are concerned. I do great in sales. I just feel like I am intuitive. I know when people like me instantly. There are fake people that pretend like they like you, but I can see right through them. I've noticed that some people can't see when someone doesn't like them. Is this a character flaw for me?

I have difficulty being supportive of others. I don't know if I understand why. I don't know how to fix it either.

hypothetical example, let's say I have a friend who is going to college to get a degree in something they are passionate about.

I have a really hard time trying to show support of something like that. The above is just a random example. It doesn't matter what the issue is, a job, education, etc, I always have a hard time showing support. In all honesty, I have little-to-no genuine admiration of whatever it is they are doing. I won't offer fake support.

What is wrong with me and what can I do about it?
