I know what you mean. I can't stand it when girls dress like that, as if tight=sexy, especially if they are overwieght (shudder).
I, personally am a fat girl. I don't like it (am currently working on a diet) but I don't dress like I weigh 120 lbs either! I mean what the f
?!? Don't they realize that wearing a tupe top and low rise jeans just makes them look worse? 
On another note, I can't stand beautiful, well sized girls complaining about how fat thay are!
I would kill to look like some of those girls. Like my cousin. She's 5ft 9 in, has had two kids and wears a size 10 and can't stop complaining about how fat she is. AAUUUUUUUUHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!! Oh yes. One more. The church signs in the BSR. GRRRRRRR
See my blog here http://www.fireflyfans.net/showblog.asp?b=3580 to see my rant on this topic.They are really starting to annoy me, to put it mildly.

Op: You're fighting a war you've already lost.
Mal: Yeah, well I'm known for that.

And the other 10%?
Ah, you see to me only about 10% are bad. I just haven't met the other 90% (personally) yet.

I don't know. What get my goat about the whole fat issue is this diet culture. I mean its all you ever hear some women talk about for f's sakes. Jeasus, I mean I'd rather look like jabba the hut and be able to converse animatedly about a hundred different subjects over a plate of pizze than sit picking over a salad and scowl my way through a dissection of the calorific values of a digestive buscuit. I mean hell, talking about dieting is about as sexy as talking about how you like to go out at night and fondle roadkill.
Plus theres this whole issue of, yeah, I could diet, loose weight, tone up, look like Kate sodding Moss, and I could get a great job, a cute boyfriend, be the belle of the ball. but hang on, wouldn't that mean that i'm not good enough if i'm not skinny? are only skinny people allowed to be happy? do fat people have to be punished? cause thats the impression I get from society.
I would rather achieve all those things now, exactly as I am, based on who I am. And by that I mean my mind, my personality, because hey, the way Kate Moss is going, she's going to be really really ugly, very soon, and then what has she got going for her.?
The only thing about my appearence I care about is my face - its how I communicate whats in my head, and hell, i'm pretty damn happy with it, even the imperfections, they make me different, and the thing I hate most is being lumped in with others for the stupidest of reasons.
I want to loose weight, but the ONLY reason for that is I have a hereditary weakness in my ankle, my mother has the same thing, and has damaged it irrevocably, so loosing any wieght may help avoid the same thing. But only may, it could, and probably will, make no difference whatsoever. So I'm not in any hurry to kill my self on a diet, and i'm not going to stop enjoying myself out of some enforced guilt.
Grrrgh.

my campus is crawling with drunken frat guys (and non-frat guys) that think they are hot stuff. these people annoy me.
i find all the other nice guys when i'm away from campus, but for the moment (as i'm stuck here for a bit), 90% suck.
i do however, really really really like the guys i meet when i'm backpacking. mmmmmmm. could be because they are usually foreign. or older.

I take it you live in the DC metro area 1978? My bit of angst: I drove to DC this morning, spent 2 hours in traffic listening to weird people rant on the metro. Get to the office (borrowed, I have none there, not even a phone), go to the 15 minute staff meeting and get told You can go home, we don't need you today.
Spent three hours in fricking traffic! And well sex... nothing more need be said on that topic right now.
As for fashion -- live in southern MD and go to Wal-Mart for a check on the what not to wear!

I've kept myself about the size of a tooth-pick all of my life because, like so many other women I was programmed with the idiotic notion that we should look like we are 16 years old regardless if we're 44. I look like I'm in perfect shape but I'm fucking hungry all the time because men only want women who look like children....how right is that?

It’s all up in the media. The images that are projected are small women that look 16 years old. You see it in the magazine racks. You see it in movies and on television. The unspoken message is clear as rain…If you are fat, no one will love you. If you are fat, no one will show you respect, but if you look like a 16 year old girl dressed in tight, sexy, bonded clothing, society as a whole will throw themselves at you. You are suddenly such a “sweet girl” men want to mate with you, kids love you…everyone wants to fuck you. I’m sick of it.

I think my mission for the rest of this year should be to grow fat. I’ve never been fat, but now I think its time. I’m going to order a pizza with everything on it!!!!

don't try to get fat, just don't deny your self.
The words LIFE IS TOO FUCKING SHORT have never applied more.
Trying to get fat just triples your health issues, just eat when you want to. For god sake, its your body, no-one elses.
But what you said is true, no one respects you when you are fat - I get it all the time, and its not just retarded pikey brats calling you names in the street. Its everyone. I'm upset, everyone assumes its because i'm fat, i'm shy in social situation, its because i'm fat.
I'm not allowed to be a person, i'm not a fully functioning human being, I don't have a full range of emotions, thoughts, and desires, because to others I stop and start at my excess body tissue.
Even supposed medical professionals can't see it - starting when I was young, I went to see if I had allergies, I was given a nasal spray and told 'I would feel better if I lost a bit of weight'. In college I went for advice on counselling, I was having so many problems with debts and crap like that, i'd just found out I was dyslexic and was facing an uphill struggle to get any kind of help for it, I had all that unresolved crap I mentioned earlier, plus another two relationships worth and what does the doctor say? 'you might feel better if you lost a bit of weight'.
Even lately, i've been chronically tired, no balance and freguently dizzy and nauseous, so I went to ask about the tiredness, 'I'm sure you would feel better if you lost weight' and I end up in Fat Asses Anonymous. Which triggers, yup, you guessed it, the depression.
Aparently, allergies, depression and dizziness/vertigo and tiredness are all caused by, and only ever happen to people with, fat arses.
Years ago, fat people used to be venerated, they were 'jolly' happy go lucky, baccanalian, in love with life and all its splendours, wise and kind and human.
Now even Santa appears to be dieting.
Fat people have lost their PR team somewhere, now they are nothing but half people, shallow paintings greedily using more than their fair share of paint - 'if we credit them with minds of their own, then we can't feel superior to to them, and then we'll have to go back to bullying gay and black people'
So no-one respects fat people, because they are represented as one dimensional freaks devoid of the humanity of 'normal' people. (you want proof? Apainting of a nude, thin, it is interpreted in terms of personality and thought, a fat person? It is a study of the flesh)
And note that I will never use the words 'plus size' or 'fuller figured' how bloody patronising do you need to be. Lets stick to adjectives and facts, not stupid PC labels, designed solely to keep fat people in their place, separated from the good people trying to shop for their nice clothes without being bothered by the distressing sight of a body that doesn't hit the dictated norm.
Which is where my beef with women who wear badly fitting clothes come from. Its about self respect, and dressing to reflect yourself. These women in crap fitting clothes are invariably only wearing them because some womans rag has told them that to be found attractive they must wear this or that, and this and that can only be found in sizes to small, and they haven't got either the confidence or the imagination to say no, screw you, i'm going to wear what makes me feel good, and if it happens to co-incide with what you say is ok, then so be it, but until then, go play hopscotch across a motorway.
oh my god i'm on a roll...
(*disclaimer, I am of course, taliking from personal experience, generalising, and excepting present company etc, etc, I know full well that it not how all people think, but I am speaking mainly of the unwashed masses and certain members of the supposed 'intellectual' 'artistic' and 'cultural' societys.

interstingly, my mom had a theory about the 16 year old boy thing.
She reason that most of the big fashion housed are headed by gay men, and who do gay men fancy? other men, and what does the whole world find attractive? youth. So basically, all these designers are designing what they find sexy, young men. Even Jean Paul Gautier, the one who designs are most 'feminine' distorts and almost parodies the female form - Madonnas conical bar? your telling me that that was a celebration of tits?
Versace, Galliano, those two muppets with the bad hair, every single one of them. Only the Celebrity led fashions (i.e. J.Lo wears a waist cincher, everyone follows suit) are ever feminine.
The rest of the time, the spend all their efforts squishing boobs and lowering waist bands in an effort to distract away from the fact that woen go in at the waist. Which is why so many women nowadays seem seem so monstrously top heavy, wide shoulders down to tiny compressed hips, the waist abandonesd totally.
only feet are allowed to differ from mens shoes, but that is because high heels lengthen and dainty, pointy toes add to the male 'triangular' shape.
Only Donna Karan, Vera Wang, and primarily Vivienne Westwood allow their models to actually be female.
