Thanks for the shout-out, my dear!
You’re welcome; that’s an important topic you discuss. Body image is not about vanity or frivolity; it prevents people from sharing their gifts which puts the world at a loss.
Yeah. Well my half sister has type two diabetes. she is a LOT thinner then the girl in the bathing suit you have pictured. the truth is being overweight is a problem. Would you encourage a smoker to just be themselves and smoke? Then why encourage an overweight person to be overweight? it isn’t attractive because its un healthy. Its not easy to walk when your thighs touch because we are not designed to carry that much weight. And btw…unless your boyfriend really likes a certain type of girl he probably would rather cut his arm off then touch the fat chic from Mad Men. Women find her attractive. Not men. Most men don’t even like large breasts all that much.
