I'm in an unhappy bind in which yes I am very offended by what BDR said but I also actually am a giant porky hambeast, pretty much on the level that you would expect from a persistent WoW player and all-around Person With Primarily Indoors Interests. So yeah, fatty cracks kind of hurt. Like all people, especially women, I'd like to be thought of as attractive and healthy. On a philosophical level I'm saddened that BDR is essentially reducing my personhood to just my body. It's generally misogynist and specifically rude. I wish we didn't have to be this way, you know?
But probably if I were a beautiful person I would just think it was funny. It would also probably hurt BDR more if he thought that an attractive woman thought as little of him as I do. Being thin and pretty is a useful social tool especially for women.
I can brush off what BDR said as just schoolyard taunting, but fundamentally I find BDR incredibly sexual and compatible with me intellectually, and he has basically just thrown down his gauntlet and said "no, never." Not even the knowledge that I could have Jerry Whorebach or Quentinbec any time I wanted will help here.
Advice sought!
Maybe you should have helped him more when he was being teased by jews and shut-ins. And Jerry should have done a better job of kissing his ass. I'm almost at the point of saying we don't deserve him.
As for your fatness...
Sometimes at night, I think of things I'll write on the "what I'm looking for" section of my dating website profile when I arrive in Brisbane. In my head, I keep revising it because my criteria keeps excluding people I know I'd happily marry. I think I've decided to put something along the lines of, "can have up to five socially unacceptable shortcomings*" and then have a big section of fine print which in part mentions that "being fat counts as four shortcomings: fatness, laziness, weakness, and apathy."
Come get me, ladies!
Anyway, I think the best excuse for a fat person to use regarding why they are fat is that food is fucking good, but I've never heard a fat person have the balls to work that angle, which is a shame because the only things that we'd all agree are better than computer games are sex, people, and food, and unless you're freakishly tall (kiss my ass!) you can't induldge too heavily in all three. I mean, I could eat you under the table. I'm 6'6 with Giardia. I shit three times a day. I can eat two large pizzas in 30 minutes. It's great, but great as it is, if it were affecting society's view of me, I'm sure I'd hold back, at least until I was five years into a stable marriage. Those are just the rules, Zseni. Get in the mainstream. It's where all the best people are and there are no fatties allowed.
I've wanked over fat women in my mind. Not often, but it has occured. Then again, I've wanked over men in my mind a couple of times. I've never wanked to porn of those things, though, just the idea of those things. The reality of those things is unacceptable to me.
I think any of us would marry you if you were even a little below average looking because you're smart and interesting and share a hobby, but there's more to the impression of the fat of a fat person than just that fatness. My opinion of fat is that it's a manifestation of all kinds of terrible and mysterious flaws that I don't want to stick around long enough to come to terms with. It's not like big ears, where the damage is just isolated to the ears and you put their existence down to bad luck. I don't know much about the psychology of fatness or what is going on in your head, but you sound as if you thought you could talk BDR out of being concerned about your weight, which would only work if you were worth 3 million dollars. I think your weight will and should be an issue to any great man and you need to start feeling like shit about it (I can recommend you some Coldplay!) and stop thinking you can make up for it by being interesting; if you view 'being fat' as just a 'characteristic' you can compensate for, you're looking at it wrong, and you'll be confused by situations where you should, on balance, win, but lose horribly. BDR, for instance. |
