I really don't get that. It just wires your brain too much and essentially you become desensitised.
 
Honesty is the best policy. If some chick asks me that question I tell the truth. If they got fat I say, yep, you got fat, now take off your clothes so we can work it off. 🙂

Yeah good call. If you lie and say no they won't do anything about it. But if you are honest and say yes they get mad for a few days but there's a possibility they might try to work it off.

That's bullshit on most accounts. They don't ask these questions to get a real 'should I do something' response. They ask them because they KNOW guys are supposed to say 'of course not, you look great' so it's a small self esteem booster. Girls that really think they look bad will do something about it whatever you say. It's just how they are.

If that were true there would be a lot less fat girls and let me tell you, I just got back from the State Fair. It was like going to the DMV: Society's Elite. Girls don't do shit about their weight if they are getting fat. They just let it happen and try to avoid dealing with it like a big purple elephant in each ass cheek and around their waste and on their stomach and sometimes hanging off their thighs...
 
I told a former friend that she looked borderline anorexic, but never once implied that she was fat. That is, unless she misinterpreted me asking about her weight when I was trying to make a lame joke about a shipment of boxes with no units beside the recorded weight.

She use to be pretty 'normal' (i.e. not fat, not thin, just right), but appears to have went the bullimic route for the past 2 years. I like to think I had something to do with that; I kinda rejected/ignored her for a year after she tried to 'move' on me. The next time I saw her, there was an abrupt change.

Ask any Canadian....any real Canadian and they will tell you, the day starts after your first Tim Hortons coffee.

I try to respond with an answer that is more ridiculous than their question.

Should have redirected the question.

"The real question is do YOU think your weight has increased. My observation is that you have neither gained nor lost, since I already like you the way you are. If the pants feel tight on you, its possible you are not use to how they feel, since you have not worn them in so long."

What he could have done is reminded her that weight is meaningless outside of a specified gravitational constant, what she really means is has she gained mass. Then he wouldn?t have to worry about a woman talking to him again.

responding logically to these types of unreasonable emotional questions is a sure fire way to fail.

I have found their coffee to vary greatly from franchise to franchise.

Fair enough then, I'll have to try it next time I'm back East.

7:30am, I'm in class before my morning timmies. This chick who I've been friends with forever is complaning she can't fit in her old pants and asks me if I think shes gained weight.

"RichardE, do you think I've gained weight?"
"(Me still half asleep) Well, everyone gains some the first few weeks of a semester, its alright, you still look alright"
"(her dejected look, silent like the rest of class)


*sigh*

Why...oh why do you ask us these questions? 🙁

You know, after re-reading this, I think she wanted your honest opinion. What ruined it was the, "you still look alright" part. Never tell a girl that she looks alright. Remove that and she would have been fine.

Seriously, if a girl can't hear, "Honestly, yes, you've gained a little weight." then she's not the girl for me. It's not the end of the world if she gains 5 pounds and she needs to know this, not flip out if she thinks she's getting "fat". I put that in quotes because I think the standard of being fat is steadily moving toward thinner and thinner standards.

And Americans are the ones who are forever entwined in consumerism.

Canadians are more so than Americans. It's just that we have 1/10 of your population, our impact is smaller in terms of scale, but proportionally, Canadians are probably more wasteful.
