Open-minded? I think not.
 
The Truth 😉

Now just to get alittle 'equality' going here, a new twist on The Pencil Test, take an unsharpened newly purchased standard sized pencil, hold it where it counts and measure...... you get a 10 if you 'get past the post'


*totally tongue in cheek*
 
ROTFLMAO!

Ah, now we will start hearing about how people should be judged for who they are inside, and not how they look, eh?

😉 😉 😉

In the end, I hope everyone will try to get past superficiality...
 


<< Open-minded? I think not. >>


Yeah I opened my mind and formed my own opinion. Not a damn thing close minded about that.

Mrs AntiSocial Virge,

You are right about teenage guys being mean. I graduated high school in 93 and I remeber one girl named Michelle that we called Moochelle as she was walking across the stage to graduate. I admit that was wrong, but it didn't give her an eating disorder. Anyway, I still believe teenage girls are more affected by other girls more than they are guys. You always see girls wanting to look more like some model, singer or actor. This is because they think this is what the norm is when it is not.
 
Interesting Tidbit:

The societal pressures aside, there are scientific theories that life span is linked to caloric intake. There are numerous studies that show that animals whose caloric intake is lower than the control can live 30-40% longer. Doubtful this would translate well to such an extreme in humans but it is interesting.

There are many other factors that of course effect lifespan and health and eating is a joy that I would not want to relinquish so I will leave it at that.

Some of the people I love very much are fat and would only like to see them lose weight for their own health and mobility. Not how they look in dress or suit.

BTW: My wife is 5'2 and 115 lbs and believes she is fat. Get real. She is totally hot! I agree most women are afflicted by the need to be super skinny.

There's nothing superficial about physical beauty. Yes, without a personality to back it up, it's just something to look at. But looks are just as much a part of a person as their personality is.

Also looks are very often indicative of what's inside. It's been my experience that you can often judge a book very accurately by its cover. A persons personality is often reflected in how they present themselves. Looks can be deceiving, so they shouldn't be trusted completely, but they shouldn't be ignored either.
 
It seems like weight is a really 'big' issue here--and I suppose it'll always be.
But when you think about all the important events that may happen during your relationship--will her weight be the first thing on your mind?
When you look into her eye as she walks down that isle in her beautiful white gown--will you be thinking, &quot;Walking 2x4...teehee.&quot;
When she lies in that bed exhausted from having just given birth--will you be thinking, &quot;Damn she's fat...&quot;
I think not.

<OPINION>
Anyways, as far as the topic is concerned--I don't think Cameron Diaz in nasty. She's definately not the hottest girl walking about--but I love her personality. She is a very sweet girl--and no matter how much you think she looks like a troll--I find that her sweetness really radiates her.

PS. Mr. Isla, please look the other way. 🙂

PPS. Isla, your natural beauty really shines through in that &quot;Goofy&quot; pic. It'll be hard for me to forget that look. 😱

PPPS. Slap, you'll always be entitled to your opinions. But being mature means that you know which opinions should be kept to yourself.

<< Slap, you'll always be entitled to your opinions. But being mature means that you know which opinions should be kept to yourself. >>


See I believe someone that doesn't express his or her opinion isn't being true to his or her self. I always say what is on my mind no matter who or what it affects. I have always been this way and always will. When I get married this weekend, I will be marrying the beautiful thoughtful girl I fell in love with. If, however, 5-10 years down the road she stops watching what she eats and becomes lazy and overweight, then she isn't the girl I fell in love with. So weight does matter in a marrige, at least to me. If it is due to a medical reason then things are totally different. She would still be the person I fell in love with.

THe only reason I keep throwing more debateable stuff out is to keep the thread thriving. It seems to be working.

I agree, reluctantly.

I liked what you had to say,especially the part about your wedding day and the day your children are born. Also, thank you for the compliments. I spent many years despising my looks, and it's nice to finally be at peace with it.

As for the rest of you guys, yawn... I am tired. I only get this fired up on occasion, and it is time for me to go recharge my batteries.

Besides, you will never understand what I mean when I say the most beautiful faces I have ever seen are the faces of handicapped children...

Beauty IS in the eye of the beholder, and I see it very differently.

🙂
 


<< Beauty IS in the eye of the beholder, and I see it very differently. >>


EXACTLY! I simply stated what I found attrative.

By the way, you seem like a wonderful person. We just see things a bit differently.
 
OK, I wasn't going to comment on this initially, mostly for fear of the Avenging Isla.

But I like to live dangerously. 🙂

In Slap's example, he says that if his wife gets lazy and puts on weight over the next 10 years, it's not the woman he fell in love with. He's right to some extent. If the weight is a natural thing that she has no control over, say due to childbirth, and he leaves her for it, I'd consider him to be quite a selfish loser. (No offense Slap. 🙂)

But, if the added weight is due to her becoming lazy and not caring about her appearance, then it could be just as much a change in her personality as it is her looks. If that's the case, there will likely be other indicators such as lack of interest in sex or other activities that will likely be as hard for the marriage as any change in weight. At that point it would be up to Slap and his wife to find out what the problem is and see how they can deal with it.

Again, I'm not advocating that there's something wrong with any particular body type. Just that outward appearances are often reflections of what's inside.

None taken :|

Please don't say lack of interest in sex. I am about to get married and I always heard it is downhill from there. Please tell me it isn't! Please!
 


<< But, if the added weight is due to her becoming lazy and not caring about her appearance, then it could be just as much a change in her personality as it is her looks >>



It could be something as simple as 'childbirth and age play hell with your hormones and metabolism' OR it could be 'she is depressed that her partner is losing his hair and 'isnt the man' that she married'.

😉

It is.

Touche. 🙂

Just for the record, my wife is 5'2&quot;, and weighed 105 when we got married. After one baby and a careless diet she's now closer to 125. So I'm not just making all these things up, in my experience the weight was just an indicator of other personality issues. If she never lost any weight we could be perfectly happy, but there's more to it. There are personality clashes that have developed between us. In our case, it was the old scheme that once she figured she had me, she didn't have to work to keep me. Physical appearance was only the tip of the iceberg.

But I digress.
 
Bober, I am getting the feeling you want a spanking... but I can't spank you, because I agree with what you said. I even agree, to some degree, with the point you made about looks having some use in making judgements about people. I'm sorry, there is just no fight left in me tonight!

😀

Slap, if you follow this policy

&quot;I always say what is on my mind no matter who or what it affects&quot;

and you stomp all over your new wife's feelings too many times in the name of saying what is on your mind, the sex may go downhill! Sex is a two way street. A relationship requires nurturing. Sometimes what is on your mind is caca. It may not be speaking your mind when all it amounts to is talking with your fanny.... You will learn in time. It does not hurt to think about what you are going to say and how it will affect people. I wish you the best of luck with your new bride, and boy do I wish her luck! 😉

Now, Avenging Isla leaves you to your wives! They will shape you guys up in due time. 😉

BTW, Thanks Kassy. Good to know I have such great back up! 😀

also, slap, you are OK too. This is a good conversation... It has people THINKING. I like that. 😉
 


<< When she lies in that bed exhausted from having just given birth--will you be thinking, &quot;Damn she's fat...&quot; >>




No, I'd be thinking, &quot;She gettin' thinner!&quot; -j/k 😉



<< Ah, JeffreyLebowski you wanna rumble with me? >>


Mentally or physically?

Hopefully physically, because mentally I'd be way over matched 😀
