[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will never understand people wanting others to comment on their bodies. [/quote]

Do you like when ppl comment on Your huge project at work that landed a big deal? Your writing? Your design choices in your house? Many people like to be complimented when they work hard on something and see results. [b]I see this as no different than complimenting my body[/b] but I work out hard and am strong AF. [/quote]

I am proud of the things I do for which my choices have a significant amount of control over the outcome. Sometimes, for some people, bodies do what they're going to do, and there's no way of knowing if that's the situation.

I'm proud when I'm using my abilities to do something that helps other people. In those cases, I want people to notice. But no one benefits or is harmed in a material way from another person's appearance.

But by all means, if someone wants to tell people, "I worked really hard to lose weight, and it's important to me that other people be impressed," they should go ahead. [/quote]
