ORIGINAL: LiliesDoGrow I just learned yesterday how to directly reply to individual people on the threads. I was being funny Feastie 'cause the OP's query is ignorant and mean spirited. And my WalMart is full of short people. Nothing against short people. Being a tall woman who would have prefered to be shorter myself. I really don't want to start a row, but, like my father used to say, if you're going to complain, make sure you have a solution, or shut up. (He tended to be rather blunt when I was young, and I liked it!) For all you know, this was an innocent question, and unasked questions are the dumbest of all. Better to have it out there and have it addressed gently and objectively, then to keep it to yourself and be forever ignorant. So, with that being said, respectfully, how would you have asked the question? Following up: I gave up on page one. It got nasty in a hurry. So much for an understanding community, hmm? Let me see if I can take an objective swing at it. Currently, the medical community indicates that approximately 60% of the population is obese. It's a serious health issue, and there are a lot of theories regarding why this is the case. I shouldn't have to mention how much it costs the US medically, considering the additional health problems obesity causes. I'm no stranger to health complications do to a primary health issue, I'm insulin dependant diabetic. However, I'm not obese, but I was border line when I was diagnosed, something like 30 LBS over. I got into shape in a hurry, I had a little girl to live for, and I'd rather have as many resources at her disposal than for my own, so I do my best to stay in decent shape. But, I digress. Yes, I have seen a large proportion of obesity in a club or two, on both sides of the chromosones, but objectively, what I've seen I'd peg in the 40% range based on what I've noticed, with another 30% I would call borderline. This is by no means what I would call accurate, I can only report what I've seen. I've got theories, but that would only feed the trolls, I think. Speculation by others often gets turned into supposed facts way too quickly. :) As for my personal preferences? No, I'm not looking for a barbie, but I have a sexual preference to a certain body type that gives me visual pleasure, and that is just as important as the emotional pleasure as well. Fortunately, my preferences are pretty wide, but in terms of a relationship, I'd like to be able to keep the issues down to a minimum, frankly, and my sub's issues become my issues when a relationship forms.
