First of all, just because you are not a MOD anymore CPI, does not mean that you can finally show the disrespect you have been longing to. I remember you sitting on my sofa once telling me something so stupid and absurd that your opinion, well, really matters not. So stifle that.
If you took my post seriously, then you need to take a break, sweetheart!

Npita, I like the way you think. You made a lot of sense and I appreciate your outlook. Very deep. Thank you.
I'm flabbergasted that someone could equate bias towards body weight to racism. Really?
I'm not saying that judgment based on body type is OK, but it is seriously not the same thing at all.

Refuse them citizenship and equal protection? Send them to different schools? Intimidate them from voting? From protesting?
Seriously, give me a fucking break.

Societal's bias lines are very clear when it comes to race, age, sex and weight. Some folks get hired and/or fired because of those very things. The hobby is the same, though more intense. But the hobby is also less PC than real life. I would actually think it would be opposite, given the intimate nature of our hobby.
Just my .02 cents, HH.
I understand your frustration and what you are saying, but being PC is different from the societal norm when you are talking about sex and attraction and you see that on this board.
I don't think it's a stretch to say that most guys do not prefer big women.
In closing, guys will always find thinner women more attractive than bigger women. That's just how it will always be....How many guys here have a "rule of 100" motto? That'll never change. Should it? Probably. Will it? No.
The bottom line is that this is a buyers market and the guys are the buyers. So until that changes, what you find annoying in this market and on this board, you probably always will. I don't mean to sound harsh or rude, I'm just trying to be honest, and I'm just trying to answer your questions the best way I know how to do so.

Thanks to those who offered some good things. It's much appreciated.
