A news report, "Fit and Fat: It's Possible" by Reuters actually questions the West's linking of fat and health. I know a lot of slender women who have been on some very dangerous diets or eat poorly or drink nothing but powder drinks and are very far from healthy. Skinny is not necessarily healthy. (a) does not equal (b). Remember this!!!

New on Roses Place
Because women's work is never done and is underpaid or unpaid or boring or repetitious and we're the first to get fired and what we look like is more important than what we do and if we get raped it's our fault and if we get beaten we must have provoked it and if we raise our voices we are nagging bitches and if we ask our doctor too many questions we're neurotic and/or pushy and if we expect childcare we are selfish and if we stand up for our rights we're aggressive and "unfeminine" and if we don't we are typical weak females and we still can't get adequate safe contraceptive but men can walk on the moon and for lots and lots of other reasons, we are part of the women's liberation movement.
