	When was the last time you saw a good looking male celebrity, footballer etc. with a weighty female on his arm? they all go for skinnies!! but thats a whole different thread eh?

Much of this is dictated by Society and social acceptance, if a footballer or a male celebrity, infact did fancy a lady with a bit of chubs, he woudl still not want to be seen with her in public.

If you see paintings from few centuries back, plumpish ladies were regarded as beautiful.

I also know certain "people" who love big women.. LOL

Its like if someone will say, he has never really fancies Britney Spears, then the usual response from the sheeple would be "What?! ah man, you got no taste!"

Its like the Marketing Technique, You keep flashing a particuler image and majority of people would start liking it, as majority doesnt really know what they want or dont have courage enough to swim against the tide or "fashion"

	Well at home and with a glass of wine next to the computer , I did a few calculations on the energy efficiency of the human body. It is generally accepted that, of the 2300 calories we need in a day, we use 60% of the energy for the basic metabolism (heart beat, respiration, keeping the body temperature), 30% for activities (moving, working, thinking) and 10% for digestion of the foodstuff. The excess above 2300 is stored as fat. This opens for a few interesting observations: Increased physical activity will work only on the 30% of the daily expenditure. One hour at the gym will do very little for you on the overall daily energy expenditure (as it works only on the 30% of the total). Just as well to park oneself in front of the TV…honest, I'm not kidding!

Irina ... the breadth of your ignorance is overwhelming.
I am not even sure if it's funny or sad.

I wouldn't know where to begin tearing that argument to shreds .. it is wrong on sooo many levels

Just to add to ignorance, that Sleeping burns more calories than watching Tele.

I don't think you even need photoshop - most obese people don't think they are overweight:
