Your particular combination of candor and asskickingness are an inspiration to me.

It's a stupid reverse-discrimination; just like there are lots of people predisposed to be big, there are lots of people predisposed to be small and who are really frustrated because it seems like no matter how much they eat, people still comment all the time about how they're too skinny.

I'm glad you pointed out that your concerns aren't centered on what potential romantic interests might think, and that there's nothing wrong with being thin, in general, either.<BR/><BR/>Over the past 3 months I've been modifying my diet and exercise routines (mostly thanks Jeff Pollethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789663140920958914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7463512.post-1129301159957295062005-10-14T10:45:00.000-04:002005-10-14T10:45:00.000-04:00I'll also add that there's nothing wrong with bein...I'll also add that there's nothing wrong with being thin - lots of women are naturally that way, as are a number of men, and they don't lack for mates any more than I have (I was single for years and years by choice, not because I didn't have any offers). <BR/><BR/>I don't want this to become a thin-woman bashing session.

This time around, I got myself a partner who's nuts about me at this weight, or 30 lbs heavier or 30 lbs lighter. That's not an issue. <BR/><BR/>I learned in college that the "all men only desire size 2 blonds" thing was a load of horseshit, much the same as the "all straight women desire muscle-bound rich guys" was BS as well. <BR/><BR/>For me, Kameron Hurleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098854454236774225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7463512.post-1129283614269938792005-10-14T05:53:00.000-04:002005-10-14T05:53:00.000-04:00Natural curves are sexier...
