It seems they are not truly happy with their appearance is my impression. My ex girl was large woman. Never an issue. Then when we started arguing about the relationship weight became an issue. She attacked me on that issue. An issue I never brought up. So we dont talk anymore.

It's us being defensive. i am a big woman and i like who i am. do i get persnickety about skinny women? hell yeah. But usually only when i perceive them as being snooty because they think i am not good enough to be in their same area, cause of course they are so incredibly perfect that i am not near good enough to be close to them. LOL see DEFENSIVE!!! i'll admit it. For the most part though if someone is nice to me i'm usually ok with them no matter what size they are.
Also just remember we women are very catty. And we will get upset if we think our guy is looking at another woman...and if we think it is because of weight then that's what we will latch onto. If we think it is hair color that's what we run with... etc etc etc. That's a total woman thing.

I don't believe they are "proud" of their weight. That is just not the right word. The problem is (and I'm thin but WAS overweight so I know both issues here)....the fact that society has placed so much emphasis on SKINNY women that it's hard to live up to the anorexic people. If you eat...you gain weight. If you don't....you get skinny. That is the mindset of a lot of people- especially young people -- and it is extremely sad. If Hollywood is full of "fake people" --- then who should we REALLY look at as role models and "real" people? My guess would be the women from prior to Hollywood --- the men loved them no matter what. Look at the paintings from a long long long time ago. The women were not emaciated -- they had figures. The men looked at them with desire anyway. It's extremely sad about what has happened to people and their thought on weight (because I've been on both sides). Look at the commercial where the lady at size 10 felt FAT (size 10 for any woman is NOT FAT) -- and had to get to a size 2 to "feel good about herself" ---- how sad is that? I'm thin but ya know.......I never want to be a size 2. I think people should be proud they are WHO they are -- not the weight they are.

Hmmm One experience is making you ask this? Come on! I am a woman and I am proud of my weight hell yeah I am 5'6 133. Why not. I don't frown on other people with better figures than I have. I am happy with me. The reality is there is always some one who is more ideal. I wouldn't give it another thought.

jealousy! I know ... i used to be a size 0 and every big woman that saw me in the stores, putting gas, or anywhere would just look at me like they knew me and i had killed someone in their family. And it really hurt, now I'm a size 5 and i don't get 1/2 as many murderous looks from big women.

Define for me the ideal figure. Theres no such thing. Women are very insecure. Even the ones you claim have an ideal figure have some kind of insecurities.

Jealousy and nothing else, my darling. In the depth they , of course know, that the women with ideal weight are IDEAL BUT WILL NEVER ADMIT IT.

not all big women arelike that but a huge portion are. but people usually say things that are not the truth about themselves to help build thier self esteem and look down on others to make themselves feel better. just the way it is unfortunately.

its a way for them to feel better n not show ppl they really would like to be that small yet they cant bc they r too lazy or they have a weight problem that they cant get tht small or what ever but its just a cover for how they really feel n maybe they just accept that fact
