Seriously, what has our society come to now days? Men find it necessary to point out that thier significant other has put on 5 lbs, parents tell thier children (starting at very young ages) that they are gaining too much weight. Why cant we love our mate for how they make us feel and what they do for us, rather than how attractive they are and how many other men/women oggle over them at the mall. I have never been an extremely overweight person, I have put on maybe 25 lbs since my b/f and I have started dating, he has added some weight as well. I am 6'2" so really my extra weight doesnt show either, but everytime I want a candy bar, peice of cake, pie, anything, he points out that "I dont need it". Have we really become that shallow? What are your views on this matter? Do you feel the same way that he does, or do you thing that we are putting too much emphasis on outter appearance through the media?
