Title: 50% of American women are overweight/obese
Post by: tiesto on March 11, 2008, 11:28:54 AM
Holy shit... I didn't even realize it was THAT high. I gotta get out of this country, gotta get over to Poland or the Czech Republic or something. God I am so sick of fat girls liking me, I go to the gym, eat really healthy, take care of myself, exercise, the least I expect is for a girl to do the same.

Great article by everyone's favorite Roissy here: http://roissy.wordpress.com/2008/03/07/obesity-to-blame-for-game/ (http://roissy.wordpress.com/2008/03/07/obesity-to-blame-for-game/)

but there’s no doubt that employers — male and female, fat and thin – don’t like looking at fat chicks in the office and that this may affect their employment prospects.

Hilariously enough this is probably gonna do a 360 in 10-15 years because of how much we push nutrition on my entire generation.

There was a lot of emphasis on health and fitness in the late 80s and 90s too.

The thing that really shocks me is when I see morbidly fat women walking around campus. We need to kill the politically correct "fat is ok" movement and make this a health issue, which is what it is. And oh yea, Monique needs to be arrested

I am going to assume you meant 180. However, if that is what you meant, you are wrong. The prevalence of childhood obesity is growing. Also the rates are greater for blacks and hispanics. Since a greater percentage of the US population will be black or hispanic, obesity rates will only continue to increase.

Childhood obesity increased from 5 percent in 1964 to about 13 percent in 1994. Today, it is about 20 percent – and rising.

As someone who is blessed with good genetics when it comes to this (all of my relatives on my dad's side of the family are pretty thin - though my lifestyle choices such as diet and exercise certainly help), I have to wonder, is it really that hard to lose all this weight? Provided you can give yourself a bit of motivation to watch what you eat and drink and go to the gym. I know quite a few people that went from being pretty chubby to thin/average body types in the course of a few months. I think that if people just replaced all that soda they drink with green tea and water, we'll be seeing at least a bit of improvement.

i can tell you as a fat man who has had to work his ass off to lose weight, that when i was walking 6 miles a day and hitting the gym 3 times a week for an hour on the weights for months watching what i ate with a meticulous eye and caloric count i was STILL fat.

so that's really annoying and disheartening as shit.

Another thing that I've noticed is that a lot of girls on Match will say for their body type "Average" but they'll really be heffers... I guess if 50% of all women are fatties, then "Average" would be accurate... but it's still annoying. I now only put my search criteria in as girls who are "Slender" or "Athletic and Toned".

The funny thing is that this weekend I have the chance to bone a fatty who actually has a cute face... but I don't want to, I'm sick of em.  :-\

But then again, it's not as big of a dealbreaker to be overweight for guys as it is for girls...

MOST people are at least out of shape, which contributes to being overweight, which in turn contributes to obesity in a lot o cases. Im not really shocked that lots of people are fat these days.

Exactly, SP.  I asked my dad who had an obese friend who died a few years back about the phenomena.  My dad at 60+ said his friend used to really stick out in the 70's and 80's but recently it wasn't unusual to see people of his friends' size (400+ lbs.)

Everywhere you look you see someone who is over 300 lbs.  It's gotten to the point where I am the same weight I was in high school, but I'm not as 'fat' now as I was then.  I'm much more normal sized thanks to the rest of the fatties.

Not a shock and I don't see the rates going down anytime soon.

America seems to be getting used to fatties.  The whole "big is beautiful" is now starting to creep into advertising.  Granted, I'm not a fan of rail thin models but I'm equally distressed about having 250 lb women on advertisements.

It isn't just a vanity issue either.  The health costs of obesity are already enormous and given the current US health system, I'm going to have fork over my entire salary for health insurance because Ms. Twinkiesnhohos can't keep the fucking snack cakes out of her gullet.

I might not even wind up getting health insurance after all.

Actually, it doesn't take a lot for a woman to enter dangerous territory when it comes to weight.  Anything more than 150 lbs on even a taller frame (5'8+) can be bad for a lot of reasons, the least of which is reproduction.  The whole female body shuts down when it carries extra weight.

That's a BMI of 20.9

the first thing i noticed when i moved here is how much less overweight/obese people are here. even though they have all this chocolate they still manage to stay super thin.

i'm blessed with the good genetics too, i guess, but i do feel a lot more in shape now that i walk pretty much everywhere i need to go. before i moved here i never did any walking, just took the car everywhere i needed to go.

BTW, when you say it's 8.2 inches, I assume you mean erect.  How big is it when flaccid?

You a shower? Or a grower?

Hilariously enough this is probably gonna do a 360 in 10-15 years because of how much we push nutrition on my entire generation.

Umm

That's not progress

I know, typo, but it's because I'm on EvilBore.

Man that statistic is shocking...

I don't really see many fat people here, although obesity is supposed to be on the rise here in the UK too. Northerners are fatter though, and I live in London.

I have good genes, I can eat whatever I want and stay slim (although certain areas wern't granted the same genetics :/) so I guess its easy for me to condemn fat people for not shedding their weight however most of the fat people I know don't even attempt to do anything about it. I have a very overweight friend and she is CONSTANTLY eating, 3 packets of crisps and 2 bars of chocolate in one sitting. That really makes me angry for some reason.

Also, I hate it when fat women call themselves 'curvy'. A lot of guys will refer to their fat girlfriends as 'curvy' too. That is not what curvy means!!! This just encourages them to embrace their fat selves and do nothing about it. Its a health risk.
