Would you date a fat chick

[space_rover]

This woman :?: at school Keeps turning around and making eye contact with me. She has beautiful eyes. She seems really smart and down to earth. But shes huge. I dont have anything against fat people its just that America alienates them and makes them look so bad. Like theyve commited a crime for becoming over weight. Every thing in america seems so Schizophrenic

[sandwiches99]

Why don't you ask your Xbox?

Just kidding. Uhh.. I really don't know man.. I can tell you lots of stuff about video games though.

[minx]

I'd like to say I don't discriminate for size preference, but I have a huge problem with huge hipbones. You see it mostly in Goth guys. Something about the fresh from the former Nazi death camps look that just doesn't appeal to me ;-)

I think if I was inclined to date girls, I would find it impossible to get a date because of this issue. Way too many girls overdoing the dieting. In fact, there was a girl in the America's top model reality TV show earlier this week in a bathing suit who I literally scared the hell out of me when she came on screen in her bathing suit. Resident evil doesn't have walking dead this morbid ;-)

in other words, unless it's a personal preference issue against fat people with you-- as opposed to everyone else making your decisions for you because they personally don't like fat people-- consider yourself lucky and go for the girl.

[Mr. Rhee]

Would you date a fat chick?

Would a fat chick date you?

much better question.

;)

[pukemon]

does anyone else think rover is a nuisance to this site?

[MrBrando]

yeah, when you start asking dating advice on a message board for find cheap video games.... I think you have bigger problems. Make sure to tell the girl where you got your advice from, if she still loves you she's a keeper.

[thingsfallnapart]

go on one date with her dude, one thing youll learn in life, if a chick makes you smile and have a good time, then shes worth everything in the world no matter what she looks like.

[space_rover]

Easy slick....Im not really afraid of getting flamed. you dorks flame me every day. with all this talk of dieting atkins this atkins that. Dr phil this dr phil that. Dont eat this dont eat that. jenny craig....you get thje pic

just seems like if I date her what the fvck. should I feel sorry for her and be her personal trainer or something or just let hr breath.

In stead of taking notes She keeps turning around staring me in the eye. Maybe you are right. Maybe she dosent want to date me. Maybe she thinks that Im a funny looking mofo and has to stare

Read your first post, then go back and read what I just quoted. You said America alienates overweight females. Your last post looks like you are a huge part of the alienation process. Treat her like you would any other girl, take her out, laugh, smile, have fun. If she feels she needs to loose weight I'm sure she'll gladly start training herself.

are you male or female?

[mm07]

Fat girls try harder...

[GSJaia]

Minx is female, and very attractive to boot. :D

[MaxBiaggi3]

Fat girls try harder...

I've found that fat chicks are usually nicer people than skinny ones because fat chicks can't rely (not as much anyway) on their looks to get by in this society. Personally, I like fat chicks. I've gone out with a number of them over the years, and I eventually married one as well.

One thing I can tell you from experience: if you marry a fat chick, you'll never go hungry.

[space_rover]

Yeah Im tired of prissy shallow superficial skinny chicks that think that they are hot to death. They think that being them selves means being some body else. I hear every ones fat in TX

[space_rover]

Now that Jlo and Benny have oficially broken up II think that I finally have a shot at her



Now thats pimpin

[E-Z-B]

space_rover, are you really that annoying spriggan guy, different username?

[JSweeney]

I guess space_rover needs some inspirational literature to help him think out his problem.

How about: Horton Hears a Who by Dr. Seuss?
On top of the many other lessons you can learn from this book, you also learn that a person is a person no matter how small.
(The opposite is true as well).

[catacasa]

Well...
Wario weighs in over 200 pounds (according to the instruction booklet) and he seems pretty popular around these boards. So I'd have to conclude that bigger really is better!
The real question is: Would Wario date her?
If you think so, better go for it before he beats you to it.

[space_rover]

why does every one always get emo when I post. I just asked a simple ? in the OFF TOPIC FORUM. Keyword OFF TOPIC. Boards called OFF TOPIC. If you even bother making Gameboy related remarks then go into the game boy forum

[moiety]

just seems like if I date her what the fvck. should I feel sorry for her and be her personal trainer or something or just let hr breath.

How about not categorizing her as a "fat chick" and treating her like everyone else (I think someone said this). Learn about who SHE is. She may be the nicest, smartest, most in-sync-with-you girl in the world. Or she could be rude, shallow, and not worth your time. But take a chance on her. That's what dating is about. Weight doesn't determine someone's personality.

I think more of the problem here as that you are too concerned about what the American media thinks about overweight people. So, why don't you not conform to their shallow ideals and go out and have a good time.

[space_rover]

shes got beautiful brown eyes. And reall y shes not even that fat just a few rolls. Good advice

[moiety]

Yeah I mean think of it this way, Weight can be lost or gained, but personality never changes.

Good luck!

You can post stuff on the OFF TOPIC board, but you don't have to be an ass.

[catacasa]

Hmm...I thought my point was quite clear. Perhaps I should re-write it without the Wario analogy for those that can't understand it (and I was referring to the GC version, but close enough.) Sorry for trying to make a point and still keep it game related....this being a game related site.
Well...
Large women are cool, too.
If you don't take a shot at it, somebody else might beat you to it.

[kittycatgirl2k]

Definitely take a shot at her. If you can 'click' and have some of the same interests - then she might be a real keeper. Just don't mention the weight thing, its probably a sensitive issue with her. One thing about it - if she's cool, that weight can always just as easily be lost.

On a side note, check out http://www.getupmove.com/, where Red Octane is pushing DDR and their dance pad as a weight loss program.

[space_rover]

DDR will become the nex gen weight loss craze. Its getting so much good publicity. I was watching TV da other day and some chick said she lost like 100 pounds. Its a pretty hard game with no experience though

I stay away from fat chicks. If you can't put forth a good diet, then I'm not going out with you. I can do it, why can't you? Oh yeah, fat chicks give good...wait, never mind.

[WhipSmartBanky]

Recent results of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999 indicate that an estimated 61 percent of U.S. adults are either overweight or obese, defined as having a body mass index (BMI) of 25 or more.

Among U.S. adults aged 20-74 years, the prevalence of overweight (defined as BMI 25.0–29.9) has increased an estimated 2 percent since 1980, increasing from 33 percent to the 35 percent of the population in 1999 (based on NHANES II and NHANES 1999 data).
In the same population, obesity (defined as BMI greater than or equal to 30.0) has nearly doubled from approximately 15 percent in 1980 to an estimated 27 percent in 1999.


Overweight
Overweight refers to increased body weight in relation to height, when compared to some standard of acceptable or desirable weight (NRC p.114; Stunkard p.14). NOTE: Overweight may or may not be due to increases in body fat. It may also be due to an increase in lean muscle. For example, professional athletes may be very lean and muscular, with very little body fat, yet they may weigh more than others of the same height. While they may qualify as "overweight" due to their large muscle mass, they are not necessarily "over fat," regardless of BMI.

61 percent that is a joke! I look down on fat people,there is know way you need to let yourself get that way. Instead of exercising and tring to lose weight, Americans take the easy way out and get there tummy stapled!

And lo, the proletariat shall rise up and overthrow the bourgeoisie.
Eventually, people will just come to terms with body image.. they will have to, with 61 percent being overweight. There were times in history that obesiety was a sign of prestige, and I wouldn't doubt that an eventual paradigm shift will have to occur.

I laugh at these children who whine about how they hate fat people... just wait until thier metabolisms drop off, and there gains in weight aren't hidden by growth. They will become what they hate... and even worse, they'll likely be self loathing overwieght people.

[kittycatgirl2k]

I also laugh at the people that say "if I can diet so can you" and all that shit. Some people simply CANT lose weight. They go on unhealthy diets and starve themselves and excerise and the weight just will not come off. Thyroid problems can blow you up if its hypo and then if it switches to hyper you start losing weight like crazy. People's metabolisms also differ. Some can eat whatever they want in huge quantities, sit on their butt all day, rinse, repeat and never gain an ounce. Others just LOOK at a cheeseburger or candy bar and instantly you can add on three pounds.

That doesn't excuse not getting a good diet though, it should be balanced and not too one way or the other. The Atkins diet is okay though... it seems to gel with alot of people. Maybe we were once simply carnivores. The world will never know.

[D4rkewolfe]

More cushion for the pushin... Honestly women, no matter what size they are, whether height or weight, still are women. Anyone seen "Shallow Hal" it makes a good point, even though it pokes fun at obesity in certain scenes.
I really do not see any problem with dating a woman who has some weight on her, just more to love. I don't think it should be an issue, if you enjoy her company go for it period. Yes if you don't find her physically attractive, then that is on you, you developed a preference. Don't hate yourself or allow others to hate you because of your preference. By the way Rich, you are right, they do tend to give good......

[paean]

If you don't mind getting eaten... hehe, there are so many subtle meanings to this! :D

Are you fat?

[bradr]

I tried the South Beach diet (which is really like Atkins). They make it sound like you'll be able to eat an entire cow as long as you don't have a slice of bread. It isn't so. They limit you to very little meat (or anything else for that matter). No matter what diet you choose, it's all about eating less, just worded differently and with a different gimmick. I just decided I'd eat whatever I want but less of it and I lost about 15lbs in 3 months which is what I wanted to do. I ate bread, I ate meat, candy, whatever. I just didn't overdo it. I'm at 165 (5'9) and I think according to the government study, I'm STILL overweight. I'm fine with where I'm at and maintain it. I think whoever did the study is out of touch with reality. Then again, maybe a bunch of supermodels did the study. Who knows?

To another post: I love Shallow Hal. Don't know why. Every time it comes on cable, I feel compelled to sit through the whole thing and watch it.

[danh920]

wasn't a big fan of the atkins diet myself, while it certainly has worked for some people, I felt like I was destroying my body, then again, the month I did it I probably consumed close to 300 chicken wings and mich ultra lacks the beer flavor that my diet so desires.

I don't think the study was supposed to be based on physical appearance, but rather health issues.

[poormojo]

I'm on something like the South Beach Diet, basically you avoid sugar and processed wheat. That's it. And, of course, you exercise.

I lost thirty pounds in 8 months and have kept the weight off.

The Atkins diet is supposedly a quick fix that temporarily reduces weight by confusing your metabolism, but doesn't last long term.

The No Sugar/South Beach Diet/Whatever is more of a long-term, slow results, lifetime kind of thing.

The hardest part is finding true whole wheat bread that is packed full of sugar to eat.

As long as she puts out... :twisted:

[Mr. Anderson]

Would you date a fat chick?

Sorry, but I really can't deal with the extra weight. Even if they have a great personality, I can't be with an obeise person. I work out every day and I eat right. America is getting very, very lazy. They would rather chomp on Pork Rinds and watch The OC than get some good, healthy excersise. And just because you eat right doesn't mean its nasty food.

[mattfoley7]

most girls will do anything to get the cutest guy and most guys will do anything to get into the girls pants. simple as that. how does this relate to the topic? hell if I know but what I just said is true. As for dating a "fat" chick if you have to ask anyone then you shouldn't bother.

[Whambamm]

Yeah Im tired of prissy shallow superficial skinny chicks that think that they are hot to death. They think that being them selves means being some body else. I hear every ones fat in TX

What's up with the shot to the Texans...and here I thought the worst stereotypes we had was everybody wears cowboy hats and chaps, rides to work on a horse, and we don't have electricity. Whatever.

Oh to tell you the truth, Texas has been voted on numerous occassions to have the most beautiful women in the country.

And to answer the topic, who cares if she's fat? It's not going to affect the way she acts of talks or anything.

I have to ask: Why is there a question mark in the middle of the first sentence? :shock:

Anyhow, you've answered your own question. You sound like, other than the weight issue, you like her, and you recognize that overweight people are discriminated against.

In response to what some people here are saying I just thought I should mention that not every overweight person overeats or is lazy. First of all, there's the metabolism issue. It's not an excuse to be morbidly obese, but there are some people who will always be at least slightly overweight no matter how they diet or exercise. Also, I'm no expert but I think there's some kind of medical condition where someone can look overweight even if they're not. (I think it has something to do with water retention. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?)

1. Everybody is different. I'm sure you know people who eat the same amount you do or even less and weigh more. Don't hate someone because of their genes. Then again, you feel suited to judge people based on their appearance. How sad. Why don't you worry about your own life instead of judging others that you have never met?

2. Those statistics are very misleading. They definition of overweight and obesity has changed over the years, adding more people to that category. This accounts for much (not all) of the increase over the years. Now, I could care less what someone weighs, but that's something interesting to take into account when you hear all these people screaming about some "epidemic".

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?)

There's lots of medical conditions that can cause this, and even some medications as a side effect.

In fact, in my abnormal psychology class my professor told us he found out about Prozac through his anorexic patients before the medical journals even tipped him off. The reason being is that anorexic patients almost always refuse antidepressants because they cause major weight gain,and Prozac doesn't.

although, someone doesn't have to be fat to be considered fat.

Sometimes it's all about the bone structure and boobs.

For example, one of the curses of being a thin person with large breasts is that you can't wear normal tops unless you want to look like a huge overweight person. It either has to be form fitting or a crop top.this one is not so bad because it can be worked around; unless you work or go to school at a place that requires uniforms or a dress code -- then you're screwed.

The other big problem involving being mistaken for big is a small jaw -- something that drives me personally absolutely nuts. Some random pictures of me make me look like I weigh 400 pounds because their only from the chin up. the pictures are taken by my so-called friends who think the pictures look good and I have yet to be able to knock into their thick heads that the only thing less attractive than a double chin is no chin at all--maybe I should start using a baseball bat ;-)

[TomCloud9]

Fat chicks give good he@d

[x0thedeadzone0x]

you shouldnt judge neone by their appearance, because she could be a really nice person. chances are why shes staring at you so much is cuz she likes you, unless you are REALLY annoying or shooting spitballs at her, your hair looks like it just got run over, etc.
trust me i know this cuz im a girl myself (and yes i DO like video games)
so i would say you should take her aside one day and ask her why she stares at you but make sure ur friends arent around
if shes brave she'll tell you the truth and then date her because she could be a really nice person but just insecure so shes too scared to go ask you about anything, im insecure myself (though not fat.. though not exactly SKINNY) because of the mean things teenagers say. so, go out with her, see if you like her/she likes you, and then make your decision. NEVER base your decision on purely how she looks, or you're just shallow/fake.

and thats all i gotta say.

[SolinariDotCom]

Eh, it's a touchy subject. It varies from person to person, as a lot of people here have been saying. Actually, that's not what a lot of them have been saying. It's an overwhelmingly "they're humans too! Sicko!" response now that I think back on it, and I'm not too keen on that.

It's true that they are humans at base, yes. But to say that someone's shallow just because they don't want to date an overweight person is just as ridiculous as you're making them out to be to begin with. Weight is an inter-changable variable just like height, eye color, hair (curly/straight), skin color, race, and so forth. Some people just have their own preferences, and they're not any less of people for it, regardless of what you self-righteous activists might like to think.

Eh, that aside, I'm one of those people who can eat anything and everything, sit on my ass, and not gain a pound. That's great and all, but I'm anticipating the day that it kicks me in the ass. It's not like it goes without repercussions.

As far as your situation goes, Space Rover, I'd go for it in your example. You sound like you're not too sure about whether or not you'll like that sort of thing, so you should give it a shot.

im not saying HES shallow, but for any one person to entirely base their decision on whether or not they should go out with someone just on how they look is completely ridiculous, therefore THEY are shallow. he didnt say specifically that he refused to go out with the girl, so i am saying that he should try to, and if he likes her, then that's great.

I dated a few fat chicks but it never lasted. Its more of a personality thing. I was active and I wanted to go out and do shit. The fat girls tend to want to stay at home and watch reruns.

Nowadays, I take my previous experience in account when I consider someone and I find myself not dating fat girls. Am I shallow? Thats up for debate...

[camoor]

And lo, the proletariat shall rise up and overthrow the bourgeoisie.
Eventually, people will just come to terms with body image.. they will have to, with 61 percent being overweight. There were times in history that obesiety was a sign of prestige, and I wouldn't doubt that an eventual paradigm shift will have to occur.

I laugh at these children who whine about how they hate fat people... just wait until thier metabolisms drop off, and there gains in weight aren't hidden by growth. They will become what they hate... and even worse, they'll likely be self loathing overwieght people.

If you are a fatty, unless you have a gland problem or other medical issue, you are a drain on the healthcare system. Look at Japan dammit, you don't see nearly the number of fat people there and people live to ripe old ages. It is a real problem, and "fat acceptance" groups piss me off to no end. You don't see "Tuberculosis acceptance" groups - because people take the drugs and cure the disease. Why is it different for obeisity?

The problem however, is that a good 85-90% chunk of overweight people are like that because of genetics. If you see fat kids, more often than not, you'll see fat parents. And so on, and so on.

You shouldn't judge people like that for what they eat, because they usually don't eat that much or that badly to begin with. There are ALOT of skinny-as-a-rail people that I know that eat more than anybody I've ever seen. I've seen buddies of mine go through whole pizzas, and they don't gain a pound. Yet you can go out and see somebody who's 300 lbs and eating 1 small meal a day in hopes of losing the weight. What you eat has very little bearing on what you weigh.

Which is why fat people really don't get a fair shake in today's society. You hear things like what you said, where "Oh they shouldn't eat so much", but that has nothing to do with it. Its something that makes them different, that they can't do anything about.

Its just another group of people that mainstream society can scapegoat, and for something they can't help. You can't make fun of somebody for being a certain race any more, so we make fun of them for being a certain size. It seems that every timeperiod needs their scapegoat.

Well seeing how there is no drugs or cure (save for a major surgery, which really isn't an exact cure) for obesisty, that would be the first difference that comes to mind. Also, I'm quite sure there's plenty of TB acceptence or suuport groups around.

[Lina]

I don't care if a guy is fat... as long as I enjoy being with him, and we both have a great time getting off.. it's fine by me.

[JSweeney]

Something about going back and reading about Minx dating chicks just warms the cockles.

[drone8888]

I don't think I could date a TOTALLY fat chick,... but a thick-ums......... yeah, they are great.
I've only dated one thick girl, and I can tell you,...... they work extra hard to please you.
The thing about my ex is, she was a hick in the city.
She was from upstate NY, who moved down to the Pine's in NJ, and worked in a more urban city,....... where we met.

She was really down to Earth,.... so much so, that it was like she was constantly toasted.

That bothered me. I can't stand a woman who is pleaser...... although at first, it was pure bliss.
She was actually my learning unit, so to speak,... and I mean no disrespect.
She was just too nice. Everything was let's do this, and that, or eat here, or whatever you decide. Which would be fine if she wasn't PSYCHOFAQING my mind, deducing my plans of action, then relating, and considering every possible desire I'd have....... only to choose something very similar to what I'D WANT.

I can't stand this.
I need a girl with some strength, and her's was only in her diesel lips.
NOW,........... on the other end of the spectrum,..... her lips could immitate a vagina, better than the most well trained vagina. *not to forget, she could also manipulate ALL of her female muscles*
:)

She made things happen that NOTHING else in this vast world has down there.

I'm talking PRINGLE DICK!!!!
Once I popped, I couldn't stop!!! She knew how to hit a nerve, or something; using suction, her silky soft overly juicy lips, her rose petal tongue, and her Adam's Apple.
I swear to the LORD in the Heavens,....... it was like she turned on this tap on my testes.
After about 1 minute of releasing,.... I started feeling the pressure pulling on the nuts,... it was FAQing crazy!!!! The whole time, in an ultra sensitive, orgasmic state.

Wow,.... I should give her a call.

Anyway,............ bottom line,.............. fat girls are just girls with better people skills, when it comes to men.
All of the embarassment and ridicule will be worth it,... once you take one to bed.
Just be wary,... they are either totally NICE,.... or a complete BEOTCH, from being either picked on by others,.. or used and loosed by many men who know how sensual heavy girls are.

Just pick a thick-ums up when she's ripe, and bang the sheot out of her until she looses weight. *you should have seen my girl's neck muscles,... oh my lord*
:)


Oh yeah,.... I told her we could only be friends, and she was devestated. I feel pretty bad now,... but it wasn't what I wanted, so it worked out.
Otherwise,... I'd probably be unhappily married to her now, as we were together for over 2 years.
Man........... those were some good times.


Don't discriminate,........ inseminate!!!!
:)

[alonzomourning23]

go on one date with her dude, one thing youll learn in life, if a chick makes you smile and have a good time, then shes worth everything in the world no matter what she looks like.

True. But for me, most of my family is really fat, while most other people I grew up with were normal or overweight but not obese. Basically, they make me think of family which is a big no no when dating. Though I love healthy looking women marilyn monroe, pre anorexia christina ricci, kate winslet (not sure what she looks like now), kate moss (again, don't know what she looks like now), renee zelweger (bridget jones diary) etc. I hate bones. When they start looking like roseanne I start thinking of family.

Though I know there is genetics involved. I eat 2 meals a day, and they're small ones at that. I don't particularly like fattening foods (I hate being able to taste butter, oil etc) and I restrict what I eat anyway. I'm still overweight in a sense, I have been able to reduce it so I look perfectly normal when clothed, just I have a stomach which is hidden underneath. I also have a friend who eats between 4-6 meals, each equal to, or larger than, the meals I eat. He's rail thin. The only good thing is since my metabolism is already at a crawl, I've learned how to deal with it by controlling what I eat and how much. He'll be a blimp if his slows down, he has absolutely no control or restriction on what he eats.

Though I've learned that knowing how to cook helps, that way you don't get stuck eating all the packaged, and fast food high fat foods that most students live off of.

and her Adam's Apple.

Either I'm not up to date on my sex slang, or there was a reasons he knew how to please a man so well.

LOL. I already ruled out the gland problem people.

Come on - most of those fat people chow down - and you know this, man. If it was as you say, Europeans would be just as obese as Americans.

Put down the double patty and pick up a carrot, dammit.

Some do eat a lot, some just have poor eating habits (don't eat much but high calorie, high fat, low exercise), others will become fat (like me) if they eat what the average, normal weight, person would eat. I usually take in about 1500-2000 calories a day and I'm still heavier than normal. Up to 1000 of those calories is in apple juice. I eat tons of pasta, its my stable diet (usually with tomato sauce and some grated cheese, as well as udon. Can't remember the last time I didn't have pasta in, some form, during the day). Carrots (with no calorie mustard) is my favorite snack, along with hot air, unbuttered, popcorn. Sometimes I'll eat dried apricots too. I'm not very active, I play basketball twice a week but that's about it (though I do walk alot, 10 minute walk to classes everyday and I tend not to use my car to go short distances). I had much more leg muscle, but also more fat, when I rode my bike for 10 miles a day for about a year (before I had a car and used it to go to work) and I ate about the same then as I do now. When I look at what my friends do and eat, I shouldn't have any weight problem whatsoever.

[Chuck Stank]

No, I have higher standards.

[spoo]

I prefer plump women. So yes and have dated a few.

[CaseyRyback]

There's another MIA Cag: SolinariDotCom.

that is Satori. He just changed his screen name

[Dr Mario Kart]

plump is ok. Being a gamer I'll overlook a lot of other faults. As long as I'm not afraid of being crushed to death in my sleep during an accidental rollover, I think I can manage.

[zionoverfire]

No, I don't date fat women.

[onikage]

A little bit of plumpness can't hurt. However, I would have to question someone's outlook on life if they were incredibly overweight. I've dated girls from quite thin to mildly overweight. Weight has not been a deciding factor in any of my previous relationships.

If you are intrigued by this girl, don't let her size turn you away. Weight can always be lost and health improved.

[2poor]

i dont date fat chicks, but it's not like i hate them. it's just because im a shallow bastard. i like to date chicks with some junk in the trunk because for some reason i like a girl with an assss. but if theres too much i have to draw a line.

[Dr Mario Kart]

actually, its all about the ratio. A plump or fat woman that has a similar waist to hip ratio as the stereotypically thinner women(~.7), then they will be more attractive, to pretty much everyone.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I don't "date" but I'm not into fatties either. I know they need love too, but they have to pay for it.

[drone8888]

Yeah,.......... like in Lost in Translation,....... where your good old avatar was looking thick as hell. I wanted nothing more than to be in that hotel with her, instead of that crusty old Bill Murray.

Damn, with a face like his, he still pulls the beotches.

My lord, SJ is so freaking hot.
:)

[Javery]

If you can live with the folds then go for it. Know that she will probably die sooner than she should unless you get her on a treadmill or something so don't get too attached.

Ha ha ha ha hah ha ha ha ha. Are you a male hooker that specializes in fat women? Does it pay well? :)

[MegoW64]

Well, guess i'll put my two cents in on this and then let it be.


I know alot of people dont date, "fatties" but then who are you to judge how anyone looks?


Ok, you got me, I am a "fat chick" and nope, I dont have a boyfriend at the time.


Not sure if it's because us fat people are icky and might devour half the nation or if it's because people are afraid of what others might think when you walk down the street with a hippo by your side.

Whatever it is, well, I dont care to be honest.

I also find it funny when I go to an arcade and play "Pump it up" (similar to DDR, but much better) and I can see people looking at me as I get on the pads and are probably thinking, "aww..poor fat chick got lost. The pizza is that way sweetheart" but then I start playing and people actually think it's cool.


Anyway, point is, not all fatties just sit there and do nothing. I have been fat my entire life and I have tried everything to lose weight (I played baseball for 6 years, softball for 3, and would play outside everyday with my friends growing up) It sometimes gets depressing when you see people who say, "Why dosent that cow just get up and get some excercise...it'll do her some good" because I do and nothing seems to help.


So before you judge, understand.

[evilmax17]

You poor, misguided woman...

[ZeroSupporT]

Fat chicks are like mopeds, fun to ride, until your friend's find out. In school though, not to diss on anyone, your better off not I would say simply because it really causes more of a fuss and would probably put her through more pain than she should bear anyway.

[MegoW64]

You poor, misguided woman...


lol, dont like Pump?

[dtcarson]

And I'm sure everyone here talking about not dating 'fat chicks' is a Brad Pitt lookalike, scoring [since, after all, that's what it's all about] with Angelina Jolie lookalikes, that is, when they can beat off the Milla Jovoviches or whoever's considered 'hot' now.

Need to start another thread: "Girls: Would you date a gamer geek?"

Most Americans nowadays are overweight-to-obese. The causes are many and varied: video games and home electronics replacing kickball and going for walks; prepackaged and fast food; laziness; the growth of Suburbia [too far to walk places and too spread out to not need access to a car]; metabolism; water retention; and, yes, too much of the wrong foods and not enough exercise.

I personally would rather 'date' a girl who's got a little more flesh on her bones, than the anorexic, concentration-camp-victim-lookalikes, sticklike carcasses that are all over the media.
And don't worry, all you people who shelter inferiority complexes--even with all the political correctness, there's still a few types of people that it's okay to make fun of/insult: white males, Christians, and overweight people.

[dtcarson]

Wow....So you date people based on what your friends think? How little you must value your own opinion. Think for yourself for a change, and make/have/STAND BY your own opinions. Don't decide what you think by taking a poll.

[Lina]

most girls will do anything to get the cutest guy and most guys will do anything to get into the girls pants. simple as that. how does this relate to the topic? hell if I know but what I just said is true. As for dating a "fat" chick if you have to ask anyone then you shouldn't bother.

No. You're misguided.

We will do anything to get the guy with the most power.

In high school, that may be the guy with the best car... or some guy who is/was with some girl we hated/thought was better or cuter than us.

In college, it's more about being a sweet talker. We're vulnerable at that age, and want to have fun while we still can.

After college, when it really matters, then it's 100% about the money.

[JSweeney]

Well, guess i'll put my two cents in on this and then let it be.

Letter B, Letter B, after A but before C. It's the second letter... Letter B. Yeah!


I know alot of people dont date, "fatties" but then who are you to judge how anyone looks?

A person with thier own free will. If they are willing to accept the reprocussions of thier actions, they can behave just about however they want, no matter how henious the act is or not.


Ok, you got me, I am a "fat chick" and nope, I dont have a boyfriend at the time.

I could make a glib offhand comment here, but I'm going to let it slide.

Not sure if it's because us fat people are icky and might devour half the nation or if it's because people are afraid of what others might think when you walk down the street with a hippo by your side.

My God! The fat people! They've gone and done it! The entire East Coast is gone!!! There is ocean front property in the Dakotas now! Heaven help us!!

Hmm. Guess we better hunt down the people singing "I want a hippopotamus for christmas" right now to try and avert this crisis.

Whatever it is, well, I dont care to be honest.

People are talking generalities. Most of the terrible things in the world can be accounted for by abstraction. As so as you can disassociate yourself with the human aspect of things, it's much easier to not feel bad about destroying people.

Heee. Random qoutes are fun!!

[dtcarson]

I agree that people can judge people however they want. Whether that be first impressions, stereotyping, whatever. And certainly, certain types of person are more attractive to certain people than others--for instance, blonde hair doesn't really do much for me.
And if someone says 'I'm personally not attracted to, or am turned off by, overweight women/men', well, fine.
But to say 'Don't date a fat person, because your friends might not like it', to me, shows an incredible weakness of will and shows how petty a person one is, that they are always seekign approval for their actions.

What's the difference between a "generality" ["S/He's fat, so s/he needs to get off her ass and do some exercise instead of eating Twinkies and Coke"], and a "stereotype" ["S/he's black, so s/he wo't get a job and instead will sit at home watching Springer, popping out kids, and draining the welfare checks", or "He's Jewish, so he's a cheap penny pincher."]

[GuilewasNK]

Ok, without reading all the other responses...


A "fat" chick is ok. You can be big without being sloppy and some are just as attractive as slimmer girls IMO. For example, I think Queen Latifah is a very beautiful lady and she is a big girl. Some people just carry their weight better than others. I don't mind a big girl as long as she doesn't look sloppy.

Back when I was in High School, image was everything, and pretty much everyone knew that, its not a matter of thinking for yourself, its in general the damage that could be caused by going down that route, if you want to go for it, but kids can be cruel.

[dtcarson]

Image is 'everything' even now.
Britney Spears isn't a 'star' for her talent, nor is Keanu Reeves [whoever told that man he could act?]
Some people see more than just an image, some [many] don't.
I don't buy into the 'cult of personality' we have nowadays in the entertainment industry; I also didn't buy into it in high school. I am me, I am who I am and I like what I like; if that bothers you [other high school kids], then that's your loss. I had enough faith in my own self-identity, I didn't need to fit an 'image.' I was going to AP English class, wearing torn jeans and a King Diamond t-shirt, then hanging out with some of the shoppies before going to a math team meet or a football game. I didn't 'conform' into any crowd, so I was able to interact with all of them.
Kids can be cruel, sure. So can 'adults', as we are seeing in this very thread [I'm assuming there are some adults here, and not just a bunch of high school punks.] Sadly, they can't even be creatively cruel.
The only 'damage' comes from a society in which we are led to believe you have to please everyone, you have to appease, and you're not allowed to be yourself.
I'm proud to say I've always thought for myself, and done what I have thought was the 'right' thing to do even though it may not have been the 'popular' thing to do, and borne any consequences thereof.
Perhaps the 'image is everything' attitude of high schools in the recent decades has helped to lead us where we are now, where appearance counts for more than content, where it doesn't matter if you're a good person or a jerk as long as you say the right words to not 'offend' anyone, where kids are shooting each other to get the newest pair of shoes some jock plugs, etc.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

[Javery]

Bottom line is there has to be an initial attraction, and it's simply not there for me.

Well said.

[Saucy Jack]

Just remember that looks can definitely be deceiving. Take me, for example.

Just by looking at me, you could probably classify me as overweight or fat, or whatever you wanna call it. However, there is a lot more going on than you would know about. Plus, of course, there is also the "how that person got there" story that no one knows about.

Since birth, I have battled with a myriad of illnesses, mostly respiratory problems. I practically lived in the hospital for a few years when you add up all the visits. I was never really overweight, just big for my age (mostly in height). Well, one night my body gave up. I was on the verge of death. The only way that the doctors could bring me back was by bombarding my body with over a dozen different medications, including several antibiotics and steroids.

There was a period when my body chemistry was altered by the medication regimen and I would gain a lot of weight, even with the lowest-calorie, healthiest foods. My body wouldn't process nutrients properly. With 30 different medications and various forms of therapy, I'm not surprised!

The steroids ended up bulking me up a little and ruining my eyesight (nothing that a pair of glasses or contacts can't fix though, thankfully; my eyesight just won't improve, that's all). The added power that steroids gave me (it was pretty significant for a time; I remember being a young kid and being able to bodyslam some of my grown relatives when I would play and wrestle with them) helped me get my body working again so I could live.

However, some of my body is still damaged (both of my lungs are scarred, and one of them barely functions; have occasional skin problems), but I'm really healthy. All of my organs work perfectly, my blood tests come back excellent... I'm in great condition and I can give anyone a run for their money when I play around with them. Plus, after having my composition tested, I found that I have a lot of muscle, and that my bulk isn't all fat. Plus, it's not difficult for me to lose weight. If I was less busy and I could cook, I would definitely be able to get into better shape. Plus, even with my low self-esteem (which thankfully I'm learning to deal with and build upon), I don't think I'm really ugly. I think I'd be handsome if I had a better body.

Just by looking at me, you wouldn't see all of that. You'd just see the outside: an "overweight" person.

It's true that a lot of people can't help being overweight. It's just like how small-minded people can't help being assholes; it's just genetic. :)

EDIT: Almost forgot. When looking for a long-lasting relationship, remember that looks aren't everything, and are pretty useless when you get older. When you are 70 or 80 years old, looks won't matter. You will most likely be unable to have sex, so if your mate doesn't have a personality, things will suck. It's those times when you need someone to talk to, and share feelings with. Sex is great, but a lot of times people find that the other things in a relationship really make life sweet.
