Re: Fat and Happy? Lying!
^ ^Are you yourself fat or thin?
I've seen thin people with low self-esteem, and sometimes it's more evident in them than in their bigger bodied counterparts. If it's not their weight they're worried about, then it's a zit, or hair, or the length of their feet, etc. I've seen bigger insecurities in pretty girls. And I wonder if this is because they feel more competitive about looks since that's the thing they receive the most attention for.
"Anyone who thinks they are fat and happy are lying!" Do you suppose that a contributing factor of this assumed unhappiness is the amount of societal pressure that bigger people face? Thin and big people both are bombarded by images of society's standards of beauty (tiny waist, big eyes, small nose, long legs, long hair, long eyelashes, full lips, petite features, etc etc.) Were you thinking at all about the "fat" people that might come come across your post? Needless to say, we're all entitled to our opinions, however is there really a fool proof method to measure happiness? I don't think so.
