So oddly enough, the whole thing that started this particular rant by my beautiful and amazing wife/partner/Domme/sub, was a dorkwad on here who felt the need to insult me on weight issues. That said, i would not define myself as a BBW, in fact i am a 5'4 girl who has B cup boobies and weighs 160, which honestly, no one would ever know if i did not tell them, as i have a body that is nice enough to hide it well. The whole invocation of this discussion had to do with this gentleman looking at my profile pic (which happens to be of my ass) and telling me "Well you can't possibly be 160 in that photo", to which i said "No, i was 145" and him telling me "Oh well that explains it", then going on to tell me how fat i was (going as far as to send me an offensive photo of a woman easily 4 times my size and saying i must look like her with that extra 15 pounds) and how i needed to loose weight.
Now, honestly, i didn't have a problem, as i knew this idiot was trying to get a rise out of me. Ironically, when i had "that hot 145 pound ass" this guy was encouraging me to call him and play with him, but as soon as i was "160" i became this ridiculous behemoth that he felt he needed to insult saying it made him want to barf. i made the mistake of relaying this conversation to my wife who is a 6 foot tall Goddess of a woman, who at the time was dosed with heavy medications for a recent back injury and dealing herself with some random idiot who had just insulted her based on weight. The result was this thread that everyone is now reading, which was mainly her attempt at outpouring a reaction to the insulting behaviour of some of the people here on CM.
Having said all of the above, i don't think the point of this thread was to focus so much on the weight issue, but more so a matter of saying "Hey if there is something you don't like about me, don't write me". It is amazing how many people on here feel the need to write people to tell them what they consider to be their faults. my feeling is, what is the point in writing someone on here, just to attempt to make them feel bad. i realize, for some this is just the way they get their jollies, but seriously folks as much as it's great to say "just ignore it", we're all human. As strong and independent and comfortable with ourselves as we all are/claim to be, it just takes that one straw to push you over the edge.
I realize what my wife posted was a rant, but truly, isn't that what this discussion board is for? Nothing is forcing you to read this thread. Nothing is forcing you to write reacting to this thread. For those who have come back with more negative comments, you just furthered the point of what is wrong on here.
What's truly interesting that i have found from this thread, is despite the fact that many seem annoyed that the thread exists at all, all of you have taken the time to put in your two cents on the matter. If this thread served to do nothing else, it definitely got people talking about something, be it right or wrong.
I also want to note, that my wife in no way has anything against women who are skinny. She was trying to make a point, and she phrased it in a way that came off far more offensive than she was shooting for. She has made her apology for it, so moving forward, please note that before going off about it.
M mynx
PS. Before anyone goes thinking that i am writing this because she told me to, or to defend her, please know that she is currently fast asleep and these are solely my own thoughts on this discussion matter. She is a big girl (no pun intended) and she can fight her own battles, but i thought you all might like some insight on what started this whole thing.
