I honestly didn't expect to find something more horrid then the self destructive YOLO craze so soon. My wife was going across the internet and came across a site. I read through some of the things that the site owner and other site members had published on the site or posted on the forums. I was quite frankly disgusted and infuriated.
What you have to remember, everyone, is that while my screen name may be Alex The Foxboy, I know well that I'm human, and I have emotions. Somethings are just hard to swallow, and if I'm not my usual logical, neutral, and satirical self.. I don't apologize. We all must accept who and what we are, and I am a rational human, a loving person, and a peace monger. But as the old Latin adage goes, "Si vis pacem, para bellum." If you wish for peace, prepare for war.
SkinnyGossip.com. This is war.
For a person that claims to be against things like anorexia and bulemia you sure do make me want to vomit. This attack on anyone who can withstand a stiff wind has got to stop. You all sit there on your pedestals and act like people should burn fat people at the stake. This statement can easily apply to 90% of the material on your site but to me it applies primarily to a post in reference to a magazine cover depicting a woman of a NORMAL and NATURAL weight bending over so her stomach and chest are pressed against her legs. The name of one of it's featured articles states, "What's wrong with our bodies anyways?" There were replies of disgust towards someone who would dare assert that girls of an normal weight be considered healthy and natural. Still another picture showed a skinny girl hugging a girl of slightly taller stature and somewhat greater weight. There's a particular response to this photo that nearly made me see red. A certain commenter (I would say more, but referring to this person as a human being is generous enough) showed disgust stating:
"The picture with the fat girl SPOONING the poor skinny girl is going to haunt my in my sleep!! Make it stop!"
This is sickening and disgusting. What divine, powerful being passed on the vision of perfection in women to you? And while we're on that, what makes you perfect? "Hey look you can see all of my ribs! Isn't this perfect and sexy?" I implore you-all of you on this site, stop telling girls to drive themselves to malnourishment! There are girls being told that at 5' 8" she should be in the high 90's. I'd like to take the time to mention that I-a 19 year old man, who has been tall and skinny all his life, hasn't been even 99lbs since I was 12 years old. I'd ALSO like to note that being five foot two and 98-99 pounds I was slightly UNDERWEIGHT for my size. What business do you have telling grown women who are half a foot taller then that to be in the high nineties weight wise?
For your nonsense of "Doctors only tell fat girls that they have a disorder to make them happy and keep them coming back." I ask you: where is your medical degree? Where is your research? Because there are publicly released studies on the nature of thyroid problems, slow metabolism, and like issues. I want to know where your lab, test subjects, test results. I want to know what the hypothesis was, what your observations were. What did your subjects report throughout the experiment, where are the taped interviews, where are your notes. Until you can satisfy the standards that all doctors and scientists are held to, do NOT pretend to be.
Google BMI calculator and put in your height and weight. BMI stands for Body Mass Index, it is a way to find out how healthy of a weight you have. My height is 5' 11" and my weight is 148lbs., my body mass index is 20.6. I have a little bit of pudge on my stomach, that's fine. Pudge is fine on anyone, I'd like to exercise and get my six pack abs back on display but I'm not gonna die if I don't get the chance to go out and do some work with my old Parkour group either. I'd like to take a moment to list the BMI chart below.
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5–24.9
Overweight = 25–29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
My BMI of 20.6 falls squarely in the normal weight category. To bring up an earlier comment. A five foot eight inch girl weighing 99 pounds has a BMI of 15.1 which is deep into the underweight category. It's not close, it's not acceptable. A BMI of 15.1 qualifies as malnourishment. At five foot eight a girl should weigh at LEAST 122 pounds to be healthy.
My wife is five feet tall and a hair under 200lbs. Yeah she's got weight issues, she'll be the first one to admit it. I love her though. Every last pound of her. She says that once we have our lives in order and we're comfortable with where we're at financially and personally we can work out an exercise schedule and get healthier, and that's great. And if she only gets down to around my weight that will still be fine.
Let me top this off with a philosophical approach to your biggest problem with the world. The fact that the world "Glorifies Fat People." Fat pride is a good thing, because otherwise people who fit into a pants size larger then a zero would be battered emotionally by yours and your site members attacks to the point of suicide. If that does happen and it can be proven, please, do know that with new cyberbullying laws you can be held liable and spend time in prison. It's not a threat it's a friendly warning. I may not agree with all parts of the cyberbullying laws, but genuine emotional abuse is no laughing matter.
People don't glorify over-eating. This is a country where over-consuming, not just of food, but of nature itself and our planets resources, but we do not glorify over-eating for the sake of it. Fat people are superior to skinny people. The extra weight means that girls of average weight and up will be able to withstand the elements and survive longer then their skinnier companions in a survival situation. Their fat will both shield them from the cold and give their bodies something to burn for nutrients while they try and find food and/or rescue. Their typically wider set hips make them more suited for child birthing as well. But the biggest way that many women that you find ugly and disgusting are superior to you is in this way.
You and your celebrity friends and acquaintances may be half my wife's weight, but my wife is sweet and loving, and I wouldn't trade her for any super model out there. She may be fat but you have an ugly personality, and my wife can diet.
A dirty, dusty wooden statue can be cleaned and polished and will be good as new. You're more like a statue that's corroded on the inside. Anyone that goes past the top layer will see what an ugly, abrasive attitude you have. Any man who's matured past freshmen year of high school will be turned off. I only wish that more men saw through your prissied up exterior down to the rotten core inside.
From a mature, traditional man, to a shallow, petty girl
