Id just like to add that max and i are civil rights crusaders. American heroes really.

Look, I get it. It's the internet. I'm not someone who looks around trying to be offended, let alone who is offended by much at all. I understand the art of over the top humor/taking it as far as you can/etc. It's the goddamned internet. Butthurt to get butthurt is generally pointless, and I'm not really expecting many people to really be on my side here. People are going to try to substantiate their comments as "just jokin, bro. innernets!"

That being said, I would have left it alone had this thread only been the usual 1-2 casual fat girl jokes that we've all heard/read 5000 times after the initial ignorant question posted. It didn't stop though. It just kept going and going. It seems like fat girl bashing is entirely acceptable, and that irks me. A lot. It's uncalled for, condescending, and EXTREMELY immature. Some of the things said here are incredibly hurtful and dehumanizing, and I hope that some of you one day realize it.

We don't have a thread cruelly poking fun at transgendered, homosexuals, or anything like that. Why? Because it's generally considered "not cool." It's getting to be up there with hating on Jews, which went out of fashion in the '40s.

No one goes around telling you what you can and can't be attracted to, and I really can't think of a good reason that you should be explaining to the world why you're not attracted to someone.

I really like this place, the environment, and the posters. I'm not looking to spam this board with an agenda, lecture, or anything. This thread caught me by surprise, and it seemed like I was the only one who really felt strongly about it to say something. This was the one forum that I frequent that seemed to lack the usual pack-mentality that lets threads like this thrive.


So, I'll just respond to the OP and go on my merry way to cuddle with my girlfriend and watch movies: You don't deserve that girl, and probably never will. The fact that this train of thought crossed your mind enough to post it here is scary. I honestly hope that you can come to terms with just how hurtful this is, and how actually saying something like this to her, or anyone could really really cause irreparable damage to their self-confidence.

I still hate on jews.

um...

i'm a pretty cynical guy from time to time and i might be seeing things that don't exist, but this might have also been one of the most brutal jokes i'Ve heard and i¨m not really personally offended, but it just renders this whole situation pretty pointless

A thought just popped into my mind when I saw this thread:

Would it be ethically sound to help a larger woman than you'd normally sleep with realize that she could stand to lose a few pounds by making her gag on yer junk (and therefore subtly encourage bulimia?)

Discuss.

The big difference here is, in most cases, being fat is a choice.

Just because I am sexually repulsed by fat girls doesn't mean I'm hating on you for being sexually attracted to fat girls. It's just not my thing.

I'd like to make it a matter of record that MEC refuses to wingman for me when we drink in heavily Jewish areas.

He's still a sexy beast, but we totally could've pulled the Star of David if he wasn't such a weirdly prude gentleman.

This, pretty much.

The person I was talking about is one of the most remarkable people I know, and I legitimately felt bad that I couldn't bring myself to date her for superficial reasons. I'm not that shallow, but it's not fair to date someone when you literally can't be as attracted to them as you'd need to be. I actually prefer people that are generally considered "average looking." And, frankly, she isn't unattractive. It's just... something I couldn't get over. And that's my flaw more than hers.

But some of you really need to get off your high horses and stop pretending there aren't physical things that can ruin someone for you. Whether it's obesity, or maybe you don't like blondes, or skin color (even within a given race), etc. And stop pretending you don't find jokes at some personal difference to be funny. Maybe you're not into fat jokes, but maybe you use the word "retard" to describe an idiot-- even though you're effectively comparing them to someone with a real problem. Maybe you like old jokes (I've seen TONS of those-- and I've probably made a couple). Or what about racial humor? Fuck, if I had a dollar every time HT jokingly called me a "fag"... but it's just a joke.

Seriously, guys. Chill out. There was nothing malicious in this thread.

-edit-

It turns out I didn't even make any fat jokes in this thread. Unless you consider the thread in general a fat joke... but, still. chill out.

Just man up and fuck fatties like i do

I don't know what the definition of fat is, but I like a girl with a shapely figure... not over the top, but skinny model does not do it for me in general, you can be pretty and chubby.

Fuck, I used to be 13 stone, i'm now 9, I can't bitch, there's still people fatter than me that are better looking and have better personalities. I like to think my early years being overweight shaped who I am... so maybe that's why i'm a cunt
