Snooty Colleger Professor: I just don't understand why you persist in talking about her as though she is attractive. She is not. She is fat. Don't you see that.The Fatman: Who is she talking about?
Jake: Jessica Simpson.
The Fatman: What the fuck? You think she's fat, I'll show you fat. Take a look over here!
Jake: That's not fat. That's a chubby.
Snooty College Professor: No, that's a little chubby.

I'm still waiting for someone to provide an objective definition of what is "fat".
I'd say it's something like "the amount and degree of body fat that is negatively impacting your health."
And I wasn't aware of Mrs. Pierce Brosnan but, wow, she looks good in that bikini. (Check her out!)
Well search on that blog and you will see a couple of great reviews for Lee Lee's valise.
Well she definitely won't drown with those.
I believe the correct word here is "husky".
(ask Meade)
A ha! I should've known...
chickenlittle: Those are Nebraskans. Back home in Indiana we just call them Sturdy Girls... lovely gorgeous Sturdy Girls.
Excuse me -- back home again in Indiana...
@Meade:
I was riffing off your "corn-hole" remarks on Althouse.
Ah! Maybe I need to get MY brain reconditioned.
You ferocious little tenacious member of the weasel family expat, you.
husk-corn- I guess I was unclear. I miss the calming influence of Darcy.
Darcy is a sweetie all right.
Back where I come from we call girls who look like Jessica 'agricultural'. Heh. But I don't think she's a girl anymore. How old is she , anyway?
Aww...you guys. So sweet.
And I read the "fat" thread. I can't believe people are calling Jessica Simpson fat. Reading the comments from all of you guys over there really was a pleasure, because if Simpson is fat, I'm fat.
*hugs* Princes, you are. But not because you are saying things that women want to hear. Because you mean it.
Man, this shit gets mean. And it seems meaner than it used to be. Hell, some of the gorcery store tabloids have close-ups of every fold, pucker, and fault on a woman's body.
I'd be afraid to go outside.
Simpson's a beauty. If she ever actually spoke in person to any of the male wankers who mock her online, they'd be unable to speak full sentences.
My own daughter frets constantly about her weight because of this crap. Pisses me off.
Pogo--
Your daughter? How old is she?
The Flower is seven and not really exposed to much of this sort of media and she worries.
She's been this way since 1st grade.
She's 22 now.
I had a 79 year old woman who thinks he's fat, but it's her belly pooching out from osteoporois-related loss of height.
It blows.

"She's 22 now."
My daughter too.
I think girls need to hear significant males - ie, fathers - tell them that they like them... from the get go, regularly, often, sincerely, and always.
Love is too loaded a word. But a daughter hearing her father tell her simply that he likes her gives her a lot of self-confidence and emotional stability. And it seems to me it acts as an antidote to the poisonous messages girls start hearing about themselves from an early age from the fashion industry of how they need to transform themselves in order to be desirable and good enough to be acceptable by... who? the fashion industry?
Try it with adult women - your girlfriend or wife - instead of telling her you love her, tell her you like her and why you do. Tell her with, of course, sincerity.
Many girls and women are starving for simple admiration from men just for who they are and nothing more.

My daughter is 9 and has absolutely no issues with weight. She's also got tremendous self confidence.
She is cruel to her older brother though. I think that is just female nature.
You know Meade that is great advice and it is exactly what I have done all my life. Of course only to women that I actually like. Some of them are really unlikeable so you just move on down the highway. But for daughters it is a key way to make them "normal" people if you will. That their dad or their grandad just likes them for themselves and the person they turned out to be.
You know Meade you are pretty smart for such a horny weasel.
I second Trooper. Very interesting thoughts, Meade.
Great advice.
Much better than the Dad stuff I usually say.
Thanks guys (and doll).
"She is cruel to her older brother though. I think that is just female nature."
That is correct, chickenlittle. However, it's still all our fault. Forget that to them at your own peril, bro.
And the warm Venus/Mars moment comes to screeching halt. LOL.
See what I mean, chicklit?
Sorry, Darcy. I don't know what I was thinking. I wasn't thinking... that's just it. I need to think more. *palm to side of head* think think think think think.
Ha ha, Meade. You were cruising along so well and then chicklit derailed you! :)
Meade--your advice is good all around and is greatly appreciated by everybody here.
That men and women think differently will never change.
That men and women think differently will never change.
I'm teasing Meade, chickenlittle. :)
Of course we do think differently, but I actually dislike all the blaming of men for everything.
You know what's interesting Darcy is how we're born that way-I grew up without sisters and never understood chick-think. It took being married and then having a daughter to begin to "get-it".
Yeah, it is interesting, chickenlittle. I do think we've gone overboard trying to focus on what women want, though. Everything is about pleasing women.
Don't make them mad! You know?
Anyway, I can see that would have been a puzzle for you. I have 3 wonderful brothers (3 sisters as well), and I'm thankful that neither they nor my parents treated us like princesses.
