maybe the way some men fetishize thin women has something to do with wanting a frail, >child-like creature, easy to dominate and totally non-threatening. I don't know.

i'm not sure how many men feel this way, but i know that my boyfriend does not like stick thin women. he likes girls to have a bit of a figure, because he says it's 'rubenesque'. hmmm. but yeah, i can see how men would want to have a frail girl to control. i know a few guys like that. urgh. i kinda feel the same way, i don't like really thin guys. ok so my boyfriend is a little overweight, i don't care because he is wonderfully cuddly that way. and more comfy to rest my head on his tummy. hehehe. i can't believe how weight is still such a prejudice in today's society. my best friend seems to think that being size 16 means she is horribly overweight. sigh. i WISH everyone could feel happy about who they are. fiona -- if you want me look me up, i don't exist in usual places - belle & sebastian the desk for dana fund: http://dscully.cjb.net irc: #dana_desk on dalnet x-index: http://xindex.cjb.net +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
