[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think as women, we all are simply conditioned to equate beauty = a slim figure.

It starts w/playing w/Barbie dolls…..those dolls had the type of bodies that us little girls all hoped to grow into when we grew up.

Plus we have seen through the years how most of the women we admire, both in real life as well as celebrities tend to be slim.
And we also see how desirable 
women become when they lose a lot of weight.

Like when Nicole Ritchie became skinny she suddenly became hot ➕ pretty famous, right??[/quote]

Plus, why is there this weird pressure on women to do fitness all of a sudden?  The whole “active lifestyle” is all nonsense with nothing to back it up.

Because people in this country aren't active. Everything in our society is based around convenience and outsourcing.

In places like Italy/France/etc, people are active naturally. No one's ordering delivery often, people clean their own homes, walk a lot, carry groceries a good distance.

So in America, fitness is important because our entire culture is centered around laziness.

But let me guess - you think someone can be obese and healthy, because HAES?[/quote]
