Along with all the other things that annoy me about the fat people discussion, here is a new one:
Don’t tell me what is average size for whose height and whose build.
It’s like Justice Stewart said about pornography; “I know it when I see it.”
Guys don’t ask a girl what her dress size is and then decide if she’s attractive. They go out with her and decide if they are attractive. One of the things which heavily influences their perception is weight.
(And I know maybe they ask beforehand. But that is just trying to get an idea of if it is a good idea. And it is certainly the best way to quantify weight.)
