As someone who is not actually even close to obese and actually quite
unremarkable and average weight for a woman my age, I really would
like to thank "George Orwell" and my other cyberstalker sock puppets
for raising my consciousness about what it would feel like to actually
be obese. Has anyone ever seen that movie about the thin reporter who
put on a fat suit for a week and lived as a fat person? That's kind of
how I feel right now. I am learning what it must feel like to face the
truly ugly people who have nothing better to do with their lives than
hate fat people. The reason I am thanking you for this is because, as
a social worker, having my consciousness raised about oppressed
populations I am not a member of (such as fat people) is a valuable
experience and this has increased my compassion for truly overweight
people who have to encounter hateful people such as yourself, in real
life. Although this has increased my compassion for truly obese
people, the difference, of course, that I am not forgetting is that
when I go out of my house in real life, I don't face that kind of
discrimination. I fit very well into airline seats and seat and no one
stares at me in the street, so I cannot completely understand what it
feels like to be an obese person, but this has brought me closer than
I would have otherwise been to such an understanding. One of the
courses I have taught at the university is Diversity and we spend a
day discussing lookism and weightism, so thank you again for providing
me with more material for my class discussions that I would not have
otherwise had.
Maybe for your next hateful act you can attack me for my ethnicity,
but wait, my ethnicity is the same as your guru's isn't it, so that
might get you into trouble with him. Oh well. I'm sure you do the best
that you can with your hating.
Monica

While I would not call you obese, Monica, I would call you overweight. Your
recent photo on the USF site makes it appear that you are at least 30-40
pounds overweight. That might well be bordering on obese. You look short. I
would guess maybe 5'4" so that means you should weigh maybe 110 pounds and
it appears you weigh at least 140-150 pounds.
What bothers me most is your complexion. You look like you have very high
blood pressure. You look like a diuretic is in order - too puffy looking.
You might be a candidate for a heart attack or a stroke. I hope you have
your BP checked regularly.

Wrong, my height is indeed 5'4" but that is not "short" -- it is the
average height of a woman, but given that you hate real women and are
a sexist misogynist bigot, not surprising you would find that
derogatory. And you are wrong that 110 lbs is the average weight for
someone 5'4" -- not even close -- 110 lbs would be way underweight for
that height but I can see that you like women to look like anorexic
sitcom stars. You are completely clueless so I will provide you with
actual data. The average weight for women my age, my height is 158
lbs. so if I do weigh between 140-150, I would be underweight for my
age so you can now call me Olive Oyl. Here is the chart:
http://www.halls.md/chart/women-weight-w.htm
You sure did jump to many unwarranted conclusions about my health
looking at my picture. My blood pressure is perfectly normal. I didn't
realize that picture gazing is a way to take a person's blood pressure
-- are you also into quack medical diagnosis? Sure sounds like it
because my blood pressure is perfectly normal and I get compliments
all the time on my complexion when they actually see me in person,
which you have not and hope you never will.
Anyway, I'm delighted that my looks bother you so much -- it seems to
have become something of an obsession with you. What's wrong, Neal?
Don't you have anything better to do with your time than post hateful
postings about women? I feel very sorry for any woman you would be
attracted to because it sounds to me like you stalk such women.

Good Grief, Monica, but that dumb chart you linked me to doesn't have
anything to do with obesity. It is AVERAGE weight only. Did you ever stop to
think the AVERAGE woman these days is overweight/bordering on obese.
It's really sad how you ignore the CORRECT weight in favor of the AVERAGE
weight in order to justify remain fat.
http://www.halls.md/body-mass-index/bmi.htm
Body mass index tell the tale, Monica. Yours calculated to be 26.6. Note how
it states on this site that BMI's over 26 are "not good" and bordering on
obese.
I hope this helps you with a dose of reality, Monica. You are a little
"butter hog." Go on a diet and get your BMI down to 22 where it belongs.
That means you need to weigh no more than 120 pounds.

Your anonymous admirer, Ariolimax columbianus, seems to have run out of
options Monica.
Don't you have any overdue library book fines or lane changing without
signaling citations?
As a last resort it could attack you on gender (or sex - see note below)
using the opinions of this newsgroup's expert on women, Neal Warren a.k.a.
Gregory Hall and refer to your small brain, faulty logic circuits and the
nits and lice dwelling in your hair.
Though I don't think that would work as nobody would believe such nonsense!

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/gender
Usage Note: Traditionally, gender has been used primarily to refer to the
grammatical categories of 'masculine', 'feminine', and 'neuter', but in
recent years the word has become well established in its use to refer to
sex-based categories, as in phrases such as 'gender gap' and the 'politics
of
gender'. This usage is supported by the practice of many anthropologists,
who
reserve 'sex' for reference to biological categories, while using 'gender'
to
refer to social or cultural categories. According to this rule, one would
say 'The effectiveness of the medication appears to depend on the sex (not
gender) of the patient', but 'In peasant societies, gender (not sex) roles
are
likely to be more clearly defined'. This distinction is useful in principle,
but it is by no means widely observed, and considerable variation in usage
occurs at all levels.

Attitudes about obesity aren't just weightism, though. Plenty of
people die each year because of being grossly overweight. At a certain
point, it becomes a big deal medical issue.
