[quote=Anonymous]Context DOES matter and I do not think he should have used the word "fat." Although if you have been calling yourself fat the whole time, you are taking the stigma out of the word.

On a broader note,  I would expect and hope that my DH is honest with me to tell me in a diplomatic way when he thinks something is an issue - especially if is ultimately a health and lifestyle issue.  I just do not think that a married couple should be afraid to offer constructive criticism that is genuine and sincere.  That is part of the marriage deal.  My DH and I do this by proposing a solution to the issue we are commenting on. DH has "commented" about my weight by offering to be my workout partner or by offering to pay a trainer to teach me simple things to do at home.  I have commented on my DH's sense of style (he is an awful dresser) by offering to help style him and putting him in contact with a haberdasher I know with a great sense of style.  There are ways to be constructive without being critical.     [/quote]
