<p>“…get adequate sleep…”
i wish junior year allowed this…but it doesn’t so i just stress eat, heh :</p>
<p>“I’d say that it’s guys with low standards who continue to give them attention, enabling their laziness and overeating, despite their weight gain.”</p>
<p>Yeah, there’s noooo pressure on women today to be slim/attractive looking. </p>
<p>/sarcasm</p>
<p>The pressure is alleviated when they get validated by desperate guys.</p>
<p>I am not a girl, but I really doubt that. </p>
<p>Do they also stop watching tv, reading magazines, ect? Not to mention the pressure of simply going out socially, in public eye.</p>
<p>I would aslo argue that having a desperate partner puts more pressure on them. Thoughts of “god, this is all I can get” must race through their minds everytime they look at the fat slobs they are with.</p>
<p>When I said “they” or “them”, I was referring to girls/women.</p>
<p>Desperate doesn’t mean that the guy is necessarily bad looking. And I never said that it completely rid it from their mind. I just said that’s, IMO, the biggest reason that so many chicks don’t watch their weight (aside from sheer laziness). It makes them content.</p>
<p>Just think about it. A chick’s body is probably more important in attracting the opposite sex than a guy’s. Yet WAY more guy’s try to obtain a good physique than women. The biggest difference is that a chick might still have suitors (even if they’re undesirable) if she’s fat. The guy won’t and he won’t have the confidence to take action himself.</p>
<p>Didn’t I know you would say that…</p>
<p>While desperate guys aren’t always bad-looking (although that is most probable), they most likely have a flaw. Whether it be personality, looks, attitude, ect., the point still stands the same.</p>
<p>Also, the most common reason “chicks” eventually become complacent with themselves (weight, looks) probably has little or nothing to do with who they are with, but how they feel about themselves. If someone has developed a strong self-confidence, they probably feel very little pressure from society or the media to conform. </p>
<p>Sorry for this. I really have no idea why I am debating something so irrelevant, but I’m bored, so…</p>
<p>Ahh, you edited a new paragraph on, lol</p>
<p>“WAY more guy’s try to obtain a good physique than women”</p>
<p>^ That sentence is highly subjective statement. Proof?</p>
<p>Edit: Now that I look back at it, all the statements in your post are highly subjective</p>
<p>CCC88’, I love to eat bread and pasta; I have lower back pain.
Describe a good diet or exercise.
Thanks</p>
<p>you know, russel, looking at your past posts i’d say it looks like you seem to think you know everything about “chicks”, and our metabolism, and our mindsets. what you don’t know is that a lot of chubby girls DO work out, it’s just a lot harder for our bodies to lose weight than those of guys. and that crack about “desperate guys” making girls content was rude. like i said, you’re not a girl, you never have been, so stop pretending to understand why we act the way we do.</p>
<p>Yes, what is it this constant necessity to refer to women as “chicks?”</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Well obviously. But people’s self esteem is largely dictated by people’s behavior toward them, which is my whole point. If a girl’s still getting attention, that’s going to help her self-esteem. Then they justify not fixing themselves because they’re in a ‘good enough’ spot. I know a chubby chick who dates up big time. The guys she dates are decent looking guys with absolutely no confidence.</p>

<p>It’s a forum. Although I forgot that it’s CC and everyone’s a ***ing nerd. This isn’t a court room. It isn’t like you’re proving anything that you say, either. And that statement is common sense. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I have 5 sisters. And I’m talking about human behavior in general. Men would act the same way if they could get attention while being a fat slob. But they almost never do, which is why I’m talking only about chicks.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m not from the states. It’s what we call women here.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I only ever post on CC during exams. I pulled 2 all nighters in a row and went to bed at 10. I wasn’t going anywhere.</p>
<p>“But people’s self esteem is largely dictated by people’s behavior toward them, which is my whole point.”</p>
<p>Yes (sometimes), but not always positively, which you seem to keep implying. I am saying that if a girl recieves self-assurance from someone who she might not think so highly of, it may not be very effective. It could even have an oppisite effect and make her feel worse. I went over this already.</p>
<p>“It’s a forum. Although I forgot that it’s CC and everyone’s a ***ing nerd. This isn’t a court room. It isn’t like you’re proving anything that you say, either. And that statement is common sense.”</p>
<p>If you are going to say something extremely subjective and pass it as fact, I expect to see proof. While I didn’t prove anything I said, all my statements were reasonable.</p>
<p>I tried to make light of our conversation, but you seem to love being unpleasant. I have concluded that you are a dickk.</p>
<p>like I said, I only post on here during exams. I’m not in the best mood whenever I’m here. And I don’t even feel like arguing about this anymore… waste of time.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t say more men than women try to stay in shape. Millions of women out there are literally obsessed with food and weight, I’ve never seen a guy stay away from a piece of pizza or junk food because of calories or fat content though.</p>
<p>^ But girls always spend time for her looks. How many girls don’t brush their hair? How many more girls paint their nails than guys? How much time do girls spend shopping for their clothing? </p>
<p>If doesn’t make sense for girls to be overweight while working so hard on other areas to make herself look good. Not that I’m saying girls should be thin but I’m just describing an observed paradox.</p>
<p>^ cause it’s simply harder for some women to lose weight, some women prefer the “curvier” look or whatever. And they feel pretty when they wear makeup, do their hair nicely, shop for nice clothes, etc. But there’s a double standard here: fat women are judged more harshly, less likely to be promoted <a href=“http://blogs.ajc.com/atlanta-job-blog/2009/04/13/are-overweight-men-more-likely-to-be-promoted-than-overweight-women/?cxntfid=blogs_atlanta_job_blog[/url]”>http://blogs.ajc.com/atlanta-job-blog/2009/04/13/are-overweight-men-more-likely-to-be-promoted-than-overweight-women/?cxntfid=blogs_atlanta_job_blog</a>. Face it, fat women have it rough, there’s a reason that even though men are fatter, more women have eating disorders - cause women are expected to be slender. </p>
<p>And more men are overweight btw, [Men’s</a> Health Week - Men more likely to be overweight than women](<a href=“http://www.peterborough.nhs.uk/default.asp?id=308]Men’s”>http://www.peterborough.nhs.uk/default.asp?id=308)</p>
<p>^more like girls usually do all of the above+work on their bodies…</p>
<p>“Yet WAY more guy’s try to obtain a good physique than women.”
LOL, um, what…?</p>

agreed.</p>

<p>Most of my 1000 posts were made when I worked in a lab 2 years ago and had nothing to do but sit on the computer all day. You have a higher post frequency than I do. And nerd quote coming from a typical nerd.</p>
<p>Rusell7: “And nerd quote coming from a typical nerd.”</p>
<p>^^That comment just devolved you to 13 year old ■■■■■ status.</p>
<p>Asumming everybody who posts on this forum is a “geek” (with the exception of you) says a lot about your level of maturity.</p>
<p>Edit: Furthermore, when you conclude that the reason everyone dislikes you is because they are “nerds”, you are in denial.</p>
