The Weight Issue

Every woman in America battles her weight issues every day of her life. Why? Men may ask. Because an ideal standard does not exist. Yes every
woman is either too fat or too thin, there is no middle where a woman is
just right.

Naturally, at 105 pounds I am the envy of women who I work with, except for the mother of 2 who is my size.

Once a coworker cried out how I failed to understand what is like to have people picking on her becauseshe was fat because I was never fat like her. I replied, Oh, you prefer to be called Skinny Minnie, skinny as a stick, skinny butt, beanpole, or
be told you will fly away if you don't eat something. Or have complete
strangers ask you if you are anorexic, or ask when you are you going to
put on weight because you are too skinny, or tell you that you are so
thin because you have a high metabolism. She said, No.

Example: My baby niece. My Mom calls her chunky, which insults my
sister. When I told my coworkers she is gaining a pound or 2 a month,
they freaked. I had to explain that it was normal for a baby aged 1 1/2
to gain a pound a month. They were horrified at the thought of gaining 2
pounds a month. Again I pointed out that they were not growing babies
either. My niece is not fat, she is just right. I love to pinch her
chubby cheeks.

Strangely, when I lived at home my sister obssessed over her weight and
mine. She said once every woman needs to lose weight. I asked if that
meant me too at 95 pounds. She said I could stand to lose 10 pounds. I
exclaimed that if I did that she would have to carry me to the hospital.
She said I was being silly.

Like I said, a woman is either too fat or too skinny, no woman is
allowed to be just right and be happy with herself. Our society forbids
a woman to be happy, she must sacrifice her happiness to make everybody
else happy. If women were happy, we couldn't be called bitches anymore. Post later. Bye!
