40. I think there is a difference between
seeking a bit of respect and mandatory sex etc.

My main problem with the people I spoke to was this-I got why they felt society discriminated against them etc, but they were pushing the NO correlation between weight and health very aggressively.

And secondly they seemed to be ok with making judgements about other people based on how they look :shrug:? I was questioning the scientific basis of what they were saying gently and one of them said "you should really try not dieting and starving all the time" or something like that.
It kinda pissed me off-I have never dieted in my life. I eat a reasonably healthy diet, exercise and have always been small-boned. It was rather nasty of her to assume I am some person with an eating disorder obsessed with models etc. x(.
