"The designer labels keep sliding sizes up, so that today size 4 is yesterday's 6 or 8, so that the increasingly fat population feels better."

THIS-- a hundred times over.

I recently put on some weight-- the last time I was 132 pounds (at 5'8"), back in high school, I was a size 8. Fast forward 10 years, and now I'm back to 132 pounds (proportioned the same) aaaaand....I'm a J Crew size 0 and a Gap size 2. If this keeps up, they're going to have to make 00 and 000 sizes at some point.

(Also ladies, that means that if you think you're a size 8...you're probably actually what used to be a size 12. Sorry. But that's exactly why my mom LOVES buying jeans at the Gap...it's a great business decision on their part.)

If you are a size 18, chances are you are a fat tub of sh*t. Sorry, but its true. Cry in your Ben and Jerry's butterscotch delight, fatties.

AbbeySomeone: hippydippy: UnspokenVoice: Just yell at them out the window if you see a fatty. They might give you the finger but you know damned well they can't run long enough to actually catch you. If you're like a buddy of mine you get a rather nasty fine for hitting one with an empty beer can while ri
ing as a passenger. I'd not recommend following him though.

Oh, hell yeah... I'm 6'0 and a size 16 and I haul my 201 pounds through a couple of triathlons a year. I might be fat, but I'm a fat triathlete.

Hit me with with a beer can and I'll run you down and stomp your walnut sized balls into a testicle pate.

Can I be the president of your fan club?
I can write newsletters.

I'll be vice president.

As airlines remove even magazines pillows and blankets from flights to save weight, wouldn't having lighter flight attendants be a money saving idea?

I went through Ebay looking for a suit 5 years ago for an interview, and most of the top end suits had a waist bigger than the chest measurement: I had never heard of such a phenon. I was horrified.

Nah. She works out and is very toned. Nice boobies. It's all good.

Will she be meeting you at the gym in 26 minutes?

ciocia: And the guy who checked me into a luxury hotel? He had a big nose. Damn, I was ready to call the management.

Hey, it's a sign of virility. Or something.

I'm 5'10 and size 10, even though I go to the gym 5 times a week and am in better shape than most people. I'll deal with not looking like the ideal, just because I think life's too short to restrict one's diet to salads only. But come on, size 18? There's no excuse for that. Get to the gym or put down the fork, at least make some compromise!

You don't have to be skinny to be sexy, but I think in general, being healthy is attractive. The size is unimportant, since size varies so much based on body shape and height. I know stunning size 0s and equally gorgeous size 12s. It all depends on the person, but they tend to all be in good physical shape.

Rozinante: ciocia: And the guy who checked me into a luxury hotel? He had a big nose. Damn, I was ready to call the management.

Supposedly, there is a correlation between the size of a man's nose and his peener. This is true, except when it's not.

It's that fatty chain of command...

Size 10 fatties looking down on size 18 fatties...

Size 18 fatties looking down on size 22 superfatties...

At least with the superfatties... you know they aren't half-assin' it. They're out there, eating everything they can, minimizing any sort of possible calorie-burning activities, and achieving a goal.

That's tenacity I can respect.

No, 5'10" and size 10 is healthy, and in her case, quite good looking. She lives too far away to stalk, though.

I don't go out of my way to attack size 10s as fatties, but they do have some bah-donka-donk. I made my remark because she was attacking other fatties.

I have a vested interest in creating a movement of Fatty Solidarity. The sight of one fatty attacking another when they can be organizing for their mutual benefit makes me sad.

Aw, thanks, you're too sweet! Trolls have insulted hotter chicks before though, so he very well could have seen the profile. All I know is that I can outrun most anyone commenting in this thread, so I'm pretty sure I'm not fat (and if I am, apparently it doesn't hold me back too much).

LOL. You sound like you have been spying on fat acceptance blogs or something. There seems to be a lot of anxiety about whether someone is really "fat enough" to be in the movement, etc. It's odd. It's the one place you would think there WOULD be solidarity.

You need to stop being so productive and watch more Saturday morning cartoons. Or Boomerang. I forget which but it's okay because I'm old.

The airlines would have to increase pay for stewardesses radically.

I, for one, would pay for it. In fact, since the airlines love to charge all these fees nowadays, I'll list some fees I'd be GLAD to pay for more costly service. Listen up, Delta marketing whizzes:

Guaranteed all female staff: $5
Guaranteed all female staff size 4 or less: $15
Guaranteed all female staff, size 4 or less, age 25 or younger: $50
Above, wearing 2-piece bikinis: $75

There you go, you could double or triple the price of the ticket if you just offered things people wanted.

Am I the only one who finds this kind of pathetic?

You would pay an additional $155 for a flight for young hot chicks in a bikini to be walking around?

I snipped the other thoughts because they made sense, in a way. I bet people are willing to say they will pay more to be on a no kids flight, but when push comes to shove I doubt enough would be willing to actually pay for it.

There is already an institution where men pay all sorts of extra money for attentive, hot, mostly naked chicks. It's called a "strip club." He just wants to move it skyward.

Oznog: vertiaset: Hey young people. There was a time when air travel was glamorous and exclusive. You ate from china, the Stewardesses were all pretty young women. Service was how the airlines competed with one another. Even in coach you had room to stretch out and relax. People dressed up to travel. Men wore suits, women nice dresses. You rarely saw children on flights and when you did they were well behaved and quiet. Poor people didn't fly, they road the bus.

/it was a golden age.

I supposed you'd like to send that letter to the Prussian consulate in Siam by aeromail. But you're too late for the 4:30 autogyro.

Excellent...

jst3p: Am I the only one who finds this kind of pathetic?

No.
Spending $155 dollars to watch women in bikinis?
Hell, you can go to a strip club and watch women who are nude for way less than that. Or get porn on the internet for free. The premium is for what.. having them serve you peanuts and soda?
That suggestion was essentially the business model for Hooter's Airline, which went under after only 3 years, so I guess the market isn't as large as some might imagine.

It beats having Rosie O'Donnell sneer at me and if I'm lucky, throw a pack of peanuts at me while she rushes down the aisle.

Prior to losing a lot of weight and doing a lot of exercise routines, I was a size 18 (now a size 4 thank you very much!)and there would be no way in hell I'd let myself be caught dead in that dress while I was my highest weight let alone a size 28.

ciocia: stiletto_the_wise: We really need to get back to the era of hot stewardesses. Last flight I took, the air-hags on board made me want to vomit. I say fire them as soon as they get above size 4.

By golly, you are right. When I went to a store to buy stuff, the guy who waited on me had a pot belly. The nerve of that loser! I say, if you don't have washboard abs, GTFO. And the guy who checked me into a luxury hotel? He had a big nose. Damn, I was ready to call the management. What right do homely people have waiting on anybody? Can't they all be forced to work in salt mines underground? Or shot?

Stores don't have 20-inch-wide aisles, your face generally isn't at ass-level with the salesperson, and you're not paying $500 to hurl the store to another city at 30,000 feet in the air.

Commercial airline pilots are required to have 20/20 vision (either naturally or with corrective lenses) and a health certificate stating they're not likely to keel over dead any time soon before they get hired. They're probably required to speak fluent English too, since that's the accepted language of the flight control system. There are already hiring restrictions for certain members of the flight crew, so there's no excuse for not having a legal requirement that your ass has to fit ENTIRELY in the aisle before you can be hired as a flight attendant.

What does this have to do with anything? Have you been suffocated by a flight attendant's ass? Was the airplane slowed down by their weight? Inquiring minds want to know.

I'm sure that there are physical requirements for flight attendants, and I've never seen ones that were physically unable to do their job. Are some of them fat? Yes, but there are fat passengers on the plane, too, and if the airlines are willing to take their money and squeeze 'em on, and the fat FAs can do their jobs, why not have them? They take up space? On the narrow-ass airplanes that are packed tighter than sardines, EVERYBODY is a tight fit, except midgets. Sorry, people that are too fat to make you happy are still allowed to earn a living. Tough luck.

ciocia: Being quite tall is a whole 'nother issue. It means I have a hard time finding sleeves that come all the way to my wrists. OTOH, "average height" women have trouble buying skirts and dresses means that they can't trip over

Isn't that the truth. And jeans that look flood length with they aren't supposed to be.

I am not saying it isn't preferable. I just think if you have to pay good looking women be nice to you... ehhh.. I will stop before the 26 minutes to the gym posts start. Maybe I am just too cheap to appreciate the value.

I was looking for a Singapore Air stewardess pic last week as part of a report I was working on and came across that one. Having actually flown the airline, I have to say that all their stewardesses are farking hot.

cherryl taggart: Size friggin 28!! Do commercial looms make cloth that wide? I'm a size 18 and loathe shopping for clothes because of my bad eating and general laziness. I cannot imagine what would make someone 5 sizes larger than me want to have a job that much out in the public eye. Thank you IT for telecommuting.
