Thank you. Most of the girls on this site get on people who have regular jobs about their weight, and ask how they could “let themselves go.” I don’t know if the girls who say that are extremely young or naive, but PSA not everyone is so concerned with their body and weight... sure, obese people definitely need to look after themselves but not everyone is going to be SG skinny. SG wouldn’t exist if everyone was.
I'm kind of glad we're having this discussion...I think there is always a bit of a paradox/hypocrisy on this site, especially with younger members, that goes something like this:
"Everyone is fat/average how could they let themselves go and not be super skinny?" or "People think they need food more than they actually do, average weight is actually kind of overweight."
but, then also say something along the lines of
"skinnies are ethereal/unique/beautiful/unworldly beings among the filth."
So what is it? Everyone should be thin, or it's easy to be thin? Or that thinness is some weird ideal/fantasy condition that is somehow morally superior as well?
Don't get me wrong, I like how thin *looks* a lot (lot) more than how average/curvy/muscular/fat looks, but I'm not kidding myself that it somehow indicates better behavior, much less that everyone should be as concerned about it as we are. I also recognize the reality that the average person in many western/capitalist countries eats far too much food and wastes even more, and lives a lifestyle of excess that is unhealthy, not to mention unsustainable in more ways than simply aesthetic. But, in no way do I think I'm any "Better" of a person for being able to restrict food when I'm hungry or say no to meals or snacks that most healthy/active people can eat. It's a choice, and a choice alone.
Anyways, back to regularly scheduled programming--sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings or something.
