[RC] Calling someone skinny.... - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Laurie Laurie_Ridgeway@xxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Re: [RC] Rider Weight - Tom Sites -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why is it impolite to call some one fat and not when someone is called skinny? ts -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a problem I no longer have :-) However, several years ago I went through a very rough time and lost quite a bit of weight...much more than was healthy or even attractive (you know your too skinny when other girls think your skinny)... It actually went on long enough so that it started to bother me when people (strangers too) would comment on my weight. I was sick and was not in a position yet to gain back the weight I had lost (i've since made up for it :-) People were rude about it...not many people would walk up and tell someone to their face that they are too fat. But it happens quite frequently with people who are thin. I got to where I would wear baggy clothes to cover up the weight loss. So to answer the question it's just impolite to comment to someone who is thin as it is to comment on someone who is... um....not thin... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
