I’ll cut to the chase — I am a fat girl. I am. But I have a pretty face, I am clean, and I take care of myself. I’m actually in good shape for my size and I take time to look good.
I’m tired of being a tag-along, tired of being the just-friend, tired of being the drink-holder. Hit on me!! Come on, return my ‘eyes’ from over there, I’m sending them your way. Appreciate my curves – trust me, if you get me into bed, I will make you soooooo happy you did. —Curvy Lady

Go to the gym.
it’s a movie title cosmolilly, and an appropriate tag given the bitch i would argue. although it wasn’t the poster who tagged it, it would have been maude.
of course all women are real women, but i’m sure one little bit of fat is fabulous will not make even a tiny dent in the hate-on society has for bigger girls.
and i would argue that many people don’t even choose who they’re attracted to today, they just like what they’re told to like – so a little push in the other direction couldn’t hurt.
IAW cosmolilly. I’m sorry that I look like a teenage boy but I’m a real woman too and crap like Dove’s campaign for real beauty just pits women against each other. We are *all* awesome just the way we are.
Good shape for you size? Good shape and fat don’t usually go together. IF you were in good shape, you wouldn’t be fat. There is this thing that people do to lose weight called exercise, and also some even try to eat healthy… maybe you could try that and try your luck with guys? I know the thought sounds radical.
Don’t even get me started on the “real women have curves.” This whole fat movement promoting fat as being a good/acceptable thing is fucking bullshit. You’re cottage cheese thighs and your medical bills aren’t pretty to look at.
yes, all women are real women, but saying so doesn’t mean people actually get to live that reality. the world is overwhelmingly anti-fat and pro-insanity when it comes to womens bodies. and dove just jumped on the bandwagon, women have been pitting themselves against one another based on physical attributes ever since their was a man/resources to compete for.
not that lowering the playing field is the way to go, but i find it funny that thin/average girls react so harshly when anything but their own body type is applauded. gawd forbid we actually accept everyone and not just the fortunate/malnourished.
I want a hamburger now. Dang.
I’ll risk it and wade in here.
OB keep your chin up, there are men out there for you, regardless of shape or size, and I am sure they will consider you a ‘real’ woman.
As for whatever debate is unfolding above me……I know someone said it already…but I must say it again, the tags aren’t authored by the OB.
The OB didn’t pick the lame tag “real women have curves..” that was whomever posted the bitch, so how about you don’t blame the OB for that lame ass saying?
Keep your chins (lol) up and the right guy will come along! 🙂
Halifax is a very fat-phobic city. There, I said it. And it’s true.
There are some people who are overweight, and do nothing about it; and sure, probably should for many reasons. But there other people who, for whatever reason, are overweight, but work hard to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Every person is different, and has a different set of circumstances. Not all fat people are lazy, unhealthy syphons on society. Just as not all thin people are healthy, motivated excercise nuts.
All you can do is make sure you’re the best person you can be, and be comfortable with who you are.
So there.
For the record, I find Ottawa a very appreciative city when it comes to bigger women. I’ve had no problems finding a date since moving to O-Town!
“All you can do is make sure you’re the best person you can be, and be comfortable with who you are.”
yep, cause that’s so easy…
I also second the comment about getting away from the bars…
Just look at beth phoenix. healthy, gets dolled up… looks great.
now put in on a runway with all the stick models at a fashion show….
no… she doesn’t stand out at all, now does she???
Dammit I am severely disappointed…. I fully expected to look through these comments and find an entry from the legendary old suckster….. But I guess the day isn’t over yet….
I’m hardly surprised in this frantic slim as a #2HB society. Size sixteen is considered morbidly obese in Hollywood and every mag cover in creation is air-brushed to within a cm. of its life. This seems to apply exclusively with women, especially when most of the fat, stupid ugly male leads on television or in movies have gorgeous slim wives.
So I’m not about to make a judgement call on this one – any female over 200 pounds is not healthy, no matter which way you slice it. Still, there’s lots of chubby chasers out there so don’t totally despair.
Oh god, I just had that little bit of barf come up my throat when I read this bitch. There goes my appetite.
Goodlife Fitness has membership offers for the OP.
The Y is super cheap.
So is walking to work/school.
Big people can’t be in shape? Don’t tell MMA fighters, pro wrestlers and football players that. There are a lot more thin people who are out of shape compared to larger built folks.
cue the one who sucks 🙂
Agreed ngf
Curvy Lady,
I am going to sound corny when I say this: but it’s all confidence. I have plenty of friends that when you sit and think about it they aren’t as aesthetically pleasing as others, but they work it and that’s what it takes.
If you feel like the drink holder, you’ll be holding the drinks. Grab a man!
well guys, what do you want me to say to that.
Bursting through the OP’s wall yelling “OH YEEEAAAAHHHHH! would be a good start Suckulous.
>; )
Cosmo, Maude writes the Taglines, not the OB. Blues I guess you never watched Penn And Teller’s Bullshit, where the fat guys beat the thin one in various races. Fat doesn’t always equate to unfit, no more than thin equates to fit.
How about this OP. Stop staring at guys in bars passively waiting for them to hit on you, and blaming it on your fatness when they don’t ‘return your eyes’. Instead just fucking talk to them! They may or may not be into fat girls but you won’t find out if you just stare at them like a creep all night.
Beth Ditto is about as confident as they come and she’s not lacking in the love department.
come on baby, you know you want the suckster, just say my name 3 times, and like biggy small, i will appear, not. you can get hold of me for fun times anytime you wish. i would guess you know hold to contact me by now. waiting????
are you drunk?
Lose weight and then you’ll get hit on. Can’t blame guys for not being attracted to tubs of lard.
I love how all the perfect specimens of homo sapien out there have jumped all over this bitch proclaiming that they have the answer to the OP’s insecurities. While it’s true that there ARE ways to get rid of excess weight and regain confidence, it is not like simply walking in and out of a gym a changed person.
I am by no means obese, but have been fighting with a few extra pounds that are proving to be my absolute nemesis. Granted I could be making more of an effort to work it off but that is my point. As I struggle to get myself back to where I want to be I would like to think that every other aspect of me would draw in members of the opposite sex. In spite of my “non-ideal” weight I try in every other area to appeal to people. And some people have a genetic pre-disposition to be heavier than others…. not saying it’s me but it CAN be a factor for some, which makes it even harder to lose weight.
In summation, OP, it sucks that most out there prefer to look for the slim, “hot” chicks when they go out. IMO, there are always guys out there who do not go out simply looking for a hook up and who you may meet and have a genuine connection with. Unless…… your bitch is about just that- your inability to find someone who simply wants to take you home. In which case- go for it…… follow your eyes’ gaze right to the person to whom you are giving it….. Slut it up a little; stand behind your proclamation and show one of those boys a night they’ll remember…… OR, you can just email the suckster…. Just look through his previous posts- I believe there are good 40 which contain his personal email address…. you will be soooooo happy you did.
Lose weight, it is not hard, burn more calories than you consume.
OP I’m a curvy girl who managed to get a good man. Broaden your horizons, there are plenty of men who like big bums and boobs. Be confident in yourself, I found out when I got older that many guys I assumed only wanted to be friends with me actually were interested in getting in my pants – they thought I wasn’t interested in them. Guys aren’t too bright sometimes, maybe you just need to be a little more obvious.
I’m a fan of many different body types personally. Somewhere in between the extremes of anorexicially skinny and morbidly obese is alright with me. Giggity.
Everybody’s definitions of “anorexically skinny” and “mornidly obese” are different…
Well for me, anorexically skinny is the Olsen twins, whereas morbidly obese is Rosie O’Donnell.
Rosie O’Donnell is a loathsome excescence on the face of humanity. There’s nothing good about who she is or what she does. *Snort*

I wouldn’t consider Rosie O’Donell “morbidly” obese… I mean she is definitely fat, but not “morbidly”. Well, in my opinion.

good one newt

Ok yeah, Rosie isn’t “morbidly” obese, but I still wouldn’t touch her with a 99.5-foot pole. Christina Hendricks, on the other hand, is what I would call juuust right. Giggity.
Yeah she’s incredibly sexy… I definitely agree with you there.
yep she is quite the dish 195
OMG paingirl that’s just ….actually that reminds me of an episode of CSI (I think it was the Vegas one…not sure) where a girl accidentally ends up smothering a lover to death in sleep and she would rather be charged with an actual murder than be ridiculed for an “accidental death”.
It was the Vegas CSI… that would be really embarrassing to kill a man because you fell asleep on top of him.
There are lots of fat people who can *gasp* walk around and up stairs and even RUN without getting winded, whereas there are lots of thin people who can’t do the same.
And losing weight isn’t so easy for everyone. It’s not always about will power — not when you stick to the caloric and fat guidelines set out by the BMR formulas for losing weight and you exercise and you STILL don’t lose any poundage. This probably isn’t overly common, but it does happen. And for those people who are trying and failing, they’re probably eating better than all those holier than thou skinny people who were blessed with faster metabolisms.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I ate a 1200-1400 cal diet, exercised at the gym 4 times a week (1-1.5 hours cardio and weights) and I spread out my meals so I was eating regularly (6 times a day) and I GAINED weight. And not muscle, either. FAT. After two weeks I couldn’t fit into any of my pants. Turns out I had a problem with my metabolic system and after a trip to an endocrinologist I was put on corrective meds — but that was ONLY after I did my own research and presented it to my GP. And not everyone has access or the know-how to do the same. So all those “all fat people are just lazy slobs who sit around and eat buckets of fried chicken” cunt flaps can go fuck themeselves.
In any event, OP: it’s tough out there for fat chicks. This whole “fat chicks are more to love” thing works for some, but you can’t make someone be attracted to something they’re just not. Most people, if any, don’t CHOOSE who they’re attracted to, so if you want more attention from guys, you may want to consider dropping some pounds. Plenty of guys like chunkier girls, but it’s a bit tougher out there for actual fat chicks (and no, fat rolls don’t count as “curves”…hips are curves, pockets of fat are not).
And this is coming from someone who’s not exactly thin, herself, at the moment, so don’t get on my ass for judging fatties. I’m just telling it the way it is from a perspective a lot of fatties don’t want to admit.
“Fur & Loathing” – Best CSI ever…and I could have been quite happy to live my entire life without ever learning about furries and plushies.
remember the song “a 3 dressed up as a 9”? Unfortunately most men think a 9 means skinny.
I’m more apt to think ‘she ain’t pretty she just looks that way’.
as a chunky chick myself I get it, I don’t want a fat guy either – how’s that for irony? I’m not looking for a 9 but I expect a little something being cute and fabulous as I am (even if a little overweight).
it’s true pk…
endomorphs have it rough these days.
that was a good one ivan. my point in posting those pictures was to make a point. i don’t care what people look like my concerns are smell and behaviour. an obviously anorexic woman walks by the store and so does a very obese man, he looks healthier. that is all i know about them. i don’t speculate further…hey i can feel my face^^
PG, I really like you.
merci sweetie xox…”in keeping with the situation”. i can feel my lips woohoo
I read funnygirl’s post wrong. I was thinking, if most men think a size 9 means skinny, I guess I don’t have to worry about my pant size so much anymore. lolz
PG’s chasing the dental dragon.
you just keep chasing it and chasing it, but you can never catch it.
Yeah I generally don’t try and come to any sort of a conclusion on a person’s health or dietary habits based on their size alone. Case in point, my little brother eats pretty much anything and everything but is like anorexically skinny. Some people just have different metabolisms.
happy saturnalia to you too z3. i had to look it up and i am more of a nerd. other than having my wisdom teeth ripped from my face my teef work great vv
you wouldn’t have had to look it up if you watched big bang more closely.
It’s described in great detail in their second season christmas episode…

first one
see ya see this is what were talking about. you want a nemesis to replace kay
Nope. I didn’t appreciate his comments about a young girl ‘not being attacked’ because it simply wasn’t on the news. It’s okay for him to talk like that but calling him names or poking fun isn’t tolerated. Seems like it’s a whole social responsibility program not to offend gays but women, fat, homeless, etc. people are fair game. It’s kind of sickening.
so I guess it would really suck to be a fat, homeless woman… unless you’re a raging lezbo?
Hmmm, you raise an interesting point on the lesbian comment. Considering that lesbians are women I’d wager that sebastian hates them too.
Ah a lovers quarrel.
Nothing wrong with fat girls…you gat the shade in the summer & the warm int he winter…& from what I have experienced in my past, they do try harder.
You gotta like that ! I know I prefer that to some high maintenance painted,dolled up whore !
i’m so disgusted by all the fat comments i don’t even know where to start. then again, i guess my opinions aren’t valid anyway since, being fat myself i am apparently a second class citizen and must “try hard” to get a man. sorry, i’m awesome just the way i am. if you don’t like that please fuck off. you may now return to your fat bashing.
I like them black girls, I like them white girls
I like them Asian girls, I like them mix-raced girls
I like them Spanish girls, I like them Italian girls
I like the French girls and I like Scandinavian girls
I like them tall girls, I like them short girls
I like them brown haired girls, I like them blonde haired girls
I like them big girls, I like them skinny girls
I like them carrying a little-bitty weight girls
‘The Girls’ – Calvin Harris.
There is not hate here my lovely.
Donk, your post reminded me of “Mambo Number 5”.
Hay, all I’m saying is that it’s tougher for fat people to couple because the majority of the populace doesn’t dig the obese. It’s not rude or nasty, it’s a fact of life. I don’t think someone not being into a fat person is superficial or mean — they’re just attracted to what they’re attracted to.
In any event, I think someone said something about halifornia being fat phobic…uh….go to other cities. I LITERALLY (no fucking word of lie) saw exactly FOUR fat people this summer in quebec city in the two months I was there. FOUR. For every thin person in halifax I swear I see two obese people. Women with small boobs and huge guts and little legs and men with moose knuckles and fat flabs over their junk that looks like a FUPA. Why *is* this???
There is a huge difference between “curvy” and “fat”. If you are shaped like a circle, you aren’t curvy sweetie. However, a nice hour glass shape with booty can be a win-win situation.
PK, I don’t know but I’ve seen a lot of overweight couples with large broods.
big or small, i love you all
thick or thin, let me put it in.
the suckster 2010
I have to agree with PK. Halifax? Fat-phobic? Oh Puh-leeeeeease.
Until this morning I had no idea what moose knuckles and FUPA were.
Do you feel better for possessing this knowledge Newt, or worse?
Nice to see you shining in your poetic brilliance this morning Suckulous! Always quick to provide a , ahem, giggle. Thank you for being your awesome self:)
Pretty Kitty – just HOW MANY medical problems do you have? Or is it so many that even you can’t keep track?!?!?!?
she’s our resident Mr. Burns….
they all seem to cancel each other out.
helps when we could use some medical info though.
Ivan’s name is just Ivan … the world is going to end.
it’s for Remembrance Day…calm down donk. your bus is one i would definitely get on
Aw shucks Pg. We’d be going nowhere fast, but you wouldn’t have to pay that pesky fare. 😉
In fact there are many a bitcher who wouldn’t have to pay, some I’d charge x20, and some who’d get restrained at the back of the bus.
…and some who should be tied to the back bumper and taken for a long scrape from Clearwater to Shearwater. Screeeeee!
Boo fucking hoo, OB.
You’re fat.
I have a broken back and lost a leg after getting run over by an 18 wheeler 19 years ago. Be confident in who you really are inside. The assholes will always leave you alone anyway, but the cool ones will be drawn to you and see who you really are.
Curvy girls have curves not fat. I’m sick of fat girls like you meshing girls like me with actual curves who stay in shape to have those curves all together as if you have the right.
I’m going back and reading this thread that I missed, and I must admit, I wish I didn’t google FUPA or moose knuckles either, Newt. Ugh.
