Fat words

A great deal of conversation occurs at Roissy about women's weight. Obesity being a rampant North American problemo. The obesity epidemic has created the need to use words intended to make it more palatable. More palatable to the obese. We don't say fat anymore it's not pc. Words like pleasantly plump,Reubenesque,thick, voluptuous, zaftig, big boned have entered our lexicon.

Unfortunately these words are interpreted as fat, they have lost their original meaning.

For example we may assume curvy means blobby, gelatinous blubber. You see her softness and you assume she'll be unsightly. You can't really tell what a woman looks like out of her clothes until she's out of them. Thin girls can look like toothpicks once naked - hips bones ready to slice the first man who tries to mount them. Rib cages no longer soft and yielding. Bottoms so flat they look like a man's.

I'm a curvy girl. In poorly chosen clothes (picture) I may look chunky and overweight. If I don't emphasize my waist to hip ratio I could be missed in a sea of thinner girls.

A curvy girl can have a lovely body, soft in the right places and taut in others. My message is don't be too quick to turn your head the other way.

Don't forget curvy CAN mean just that.

Just sayin...
