WeIGHing UP

yeshh...d big fat (pun intended) obsession of every girl's life........... WEIGHT...i recently read a short story by a British author about a middle aged lady who used to be exceptionally beautiful at one point of a time, but whose fine features were getting blurred as she recklessly gained weight...reckless coz no amount of plump arms, double,even triple chins and thick ankles would motivate her to lose weight...and her defense was that her husband of 23 years didnt mind...but ofcourse, if he did she would promptly lose weight...as it turned out the husband didn't mind coz he had a young, slim mistress tucked away, along with their love child...so not only did he not mind his legal wife's weight gain...he encouraged it by bringing her expensive, foreign chocolates......

so d moral of d story is: if u have to keep ur husband(lover/partner/companion)..u gotta be a slim, pretty young thing(irrespective of ur age)...
My question is WHY?? ..........WHY do the women have to 'maintain' themselves just to keep their husband?WHY is d physical 'beauty' always linked to the desirability quotient of a person?WHY do u have to pay for 'letting urself go' by losing the people around whom u've built ur life?
M not making this a feminist issue as in highlighting only d woman's plight..it is as big an issue 4 a man,maybe more so coz men can't talk about it( boys will be boys) as much as women can...
If i was to honestly ask myself, i would say that no, i would not be attracted to a plump person...but would it be the reason i'd choose to cheat on my partner? NEVER...coz d thing is...and i don't know y so many people find it so hard to get...when u have made a commitment...u stick to it...for better or worse..for richer or poorer...through youth and age...for slimmer or fatter...
the story i mentioned seems as bad and as discriminatory as d fairness lotion ads shown on d telly..u know, where d dark ladies don't get their dream jobs, dream bfs/husband....and den dey use a fairness cream and voila!!....everything of their dreams is handed to them on a platter...
can it ever get more worse dan dis...we r living in d 21st century, for crying out loud.when will we ever learn to accept a person not based on their looks but actually on d kind of person dey are........
and then the most important thing........ WHY wait for someone else to push u over to get motivatedfor a workout, a makeover....or watever......if u think u need it........go for it....if u think ur happy just the way u r....god bless u...we need more people like u.....
M not against exercise or makeup/over....but my point is....rather my question is....is it justified to mark a person as unworthy of love just coz he/she maybe plump/not conventionally goodlooking...... and that brings me to another thing: a lot of fashion stores(and dey r rare,too) r proudly proclaiming dat dey store clothes for 'plus size' women.......well......... 'plus size' ???!!......u gotta be kidding me...do u need to epithetise a woman into plus size?????!wat sort of equality and respect r we talking about here??
well.........m not married....nor m i fair or dark, slim or fair...just hanging there in between...but i dread d day when i'll cross over to the wrong side...and find what........desertation...because of my dress size??

D GiRl u mEt

Well well...as u said copy implemented, y not take faida of dat & put it to good use...
yup, we have recently come together after a span of almost 1 year...and silly me...i thought things would be d same...we can pick up from where we had left off...but what i had actually missed out was that if we had picked up from where we had left out...it would be another of those verbally bloody battles we fought...so u can say m glad dat we had dis long hiatus...coz it took me dis much time to put things into their proper prespective...
hmm....so 'd girl u met' has actually changed a lot...& i hope d 'good' changes r visible...but at d same time has remained d same...
m not going to give u any excuses coz i did watever i did with my eyes open...so if i have 2 blame someone, it can only be me...no 1 else...& at d same time wid my 'regret nothing' policy....i did what i thought was 'natural'....but if only i had d brains enough to listen to my gut feeling....maybe i wouldn't have missed out on d 'pizza,garlic bread, yummy cake& DANCE' treat...
hmmmm....soooooooo much to catch on....& also encashing d 'limited offer' thingie....
anyway...all sorries (solllllllllyyyy, chorrry) & aplogies said & done...i really, truly, absolutely hope dat i can still delight u d way i used to ( though i had no idea at that time)...& it actually is a very pleasant shock dat i had (have??) so much importance for u...coz it never even entered my head dat i could be so valued by u...
.and i had realised i was wrong a long time back...but it took some time to prepare myself for the bashing i thought i wud get....but surprise!surprise!...didn't get!!!!!
i guess i missed out some very important occassions and events d last year...but now m back....& will make up for lost time for sure...btw, m glad, really glad u went to paris....i absolutely adore dat city... :) :)
here's to u...ur city hopping...and also to 'the' common denominator between us....cheers
