Do you think pro-longed internet usage for whatever reason has a dramatic correlation to being a teletubby? Oh yeah that and 65 donuts.

If I eat 65 donuts can I be a teletubby too?

to a daddysgirl. Not just overweight subs, overweight doms also. Didn't notice this so much for men.And this is not just on collarme i have noticed it in dungeons as well. its curious to me and being curious i wonder if there is a correlation. my best guess is that we in BDSM tend to indulge our desires more than the general pop.but that is only a guess. thus my curiousity as to others ideas

• The increases in overweight and obesity cut across all ages, racial and ethnic groups, and both genders.
  
• 300,000 deaths each year in the United States are associated with obesity.

Here's a response...who gives a crap whether or not BDSM gals are heavier than vanilla gals. 

I mean honestly, have you nothing better to do with your time than waste mental energy pondering other people's looks?

You know why vanilla sites APPEAR to have more thin people? It's because the vanilla crowd in general is less tolerant of obesity, therefore fat people aren't as likely to list profiles on vanilla sites to begin with.

Newsflash: America is fat. Get over it. Walk into the grocery store and count the number of fat people vs thin people and you'll find that over half the adults are at least moderately overweight. I say "adults" because teens don't really count...a lot of women are thin as teens and gain after the age of 18 or so. I was one of these (went from a size 3 to a size 14 almost overnight and with little change to my diet or exercise regimen.)

The big question is why the hell does anyone care? I respect that some people want to be thin. Good for them. The rest of us will enjoy our food and find more intellectually productive things to do than spend hours on a treadmill.  Live and let live and don't worry about other people.

I'm 5ft3 and almost 200lbs. I'm also cute as all get-out. As long as I'm happy with myself, I see no need to post threads pondering the appearance/weight of other people. What they look like is just not a terribly interesting subject.

Very good point, we all have choices, some choose not to give a crap and some choose not to be with them... but as you said who cares if you are happy..right?
