I almost believe there is a conspiracy to reduce population by helping people become obese. That would help solve the social security retirement funding gap...

I think there is a conspiracy to mass produce prepared foods, junk food and fast foods. Corn syrup, salt, fat, and simple carbs are the new four food groups, as well as being addicting on several levels.

The average female in the US is 171 lbs. and her body will closely resemble Amy Schumer. The average female height decreased by 1 inch. This height decrease was reported to be from the immigration effect

I noticed in clothing retail stores, all the Melania size mannequins have been swapped for plus size Michelle Obama types...

The Average American Is Edging Closer to Being Obese
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-12-20/tale-of-the-tape-average-american-is-borderline-obese-cdc-says
Quote:
The average American is heavier than at the start of the 21st Century -- and very close to being obese, according to Centers for Disease Control data on body metrics......................

The risk for heart disease and Type 2 Diabetes goes up with a waist size that is greater than 35 inches for women or greater than 40 inches for men.

American women are even closer to being obese on average. Over the last 18 years, the average woman has gained 2.4 inches around the waist and their BMI has increased to 29.6.
EDIT:
There are regional differences attributed to diet and culture.

There was an attempt several years ago to get school-age kids to eat a healthy diet. I remember it being ridiculed in a certain sub-forum.

Looking for a cheesy potato side recipe for tomorrow and run across this video of a girl mowing down half the food in the thumbnail.

A muckbang. A muckbang is where a consumer/person consumes large amounts of food while interacting with friends,family and or viewers. (from urban dictionary).

I can chow but this is pathetic. Just do five clicks across the span of the video and watch it disappear.

fat broads hate themselves.

That alone is enough to keep me at bay, with out even considering how physically disgusting they appear.


Females have always traded their attractiveness and charms for economic security......

That dynamic will never change. And no one has to look at ugly and like it.......... just turn your back and walk away from it.

mooseshell is ugly on the inside as well as the outside........... dressing it up like a fat clown at the circus only makes is a train wreck of short term amusement.

IIRC, the ridicule was because the person pushing that move was overweight and stuffing face with fried chicken and pizza while telling EVERYONE ELSE a what they could and couldn't eat. Kind of a hypocrite thing.

And it had nothing to do with getting kids to make healthy choices. It was about taking choices away from people and FORCING them to eat what others decide was good for them.
At least that's how I remember it.
If you'd like to discuss it in detail we can take it back to that sub-forum where it belongs.

In the new general shape of women, their guts stick out farther than their tits and the hour glass shape is long gone.

Hypocritical? So, do you think someone with let’s say a drinking problem is hypocritical for telling others not to drink? Or maybe a drug addict telling others not to take drugs? Or a smoker?

And as I remember she wasn’t capable of passing any laws. It was more of a campaign, like anti bullying or something.

Nope, but I believe in shaming. At 6’ and 202#, my BMI is 28, so I am technically overweight. And I know why: eat like a pig, does not exercise enough. So shame on me. But I don’t want to see fat boy mannequins in clothing stores to make me believe it is all right and there is nothing I have to do about it.

Men are visual creatures......... the female form can be pure art.......

Art is in the eye of the beholder.

And............ everybody is an art critic.

PC is a construct of those who would deny reality.

And opinions are like *******s.

Merry Christmas!
