"Seriously, people...wake up. We (the people on a WEIGHT LOSS FORUM), of all people, should realize that regular people don't look like that."
I gotta unload.
Take it easy...
I think theres a lot of
smart people on here. Just because I look at a pic of Arnold as an inspiration doesn't mean I think everybody is supposed to like Arnold.
Chill.
People see something in someone that gives em a boost on their goal. Nothing wrong with that.
Keep your lavoratory comments to yourself and try to be supportive.
You think theres something wrong with some of those pics...fine. No need to degrade someones inelligence. Post your opinion but keep it cool....please.
I know...Im new here. I didnt think a tough skin was neccessary on this board.
Where exactly am I degrading someone's intelligence? Please, show me exactly where I insulted anybody's intelligence.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought I clearly said "
to each their own", did I not?
Personally, I don't really care what people find to be sexy or not. We all have our own opinions on what we believe to be sexy and that's fine. Once again, to each their own. But, it's absolutely astounding and sad that there so many people who think these incredibly, overly-skinny female bodies are inspirational in any sort of way. Plus, all of those pictures are Photoshopped, which means that the bodies in those pictures aren't what those womens' bodies
really look like. AKA -
it's not reality. And, if it's a good tool to use unrealistic things as inspiration, then...
...I want
that body. I want to be Starscream. I want huge, metallic looking robot arms and legs. And, I also want huge airplane wings with cannons that shoot lasers.
See how silly that is? It's silly because it's never going to happen. I'm only going to be disappointed if I truly used that as inspiration for what I want my body to look like. I would be disappointed because it's not realistic. And, it's not realistic because the body I'm looking to for inspiration
isn't a
real one. The same goes for all of those Photoshopped pictures that people are looking to for motivation.
The reason I brought all of that stuff up is because there are way too many people in this world that have unrealistic views on what our bodies are "supposed" to look like - or "should" look like. And, personally...I find that to be very sad. I could sit here and give a long winded speech on the matter, but I've already voiced my opinion on this exact subject on many different threads on this very forum already. So, I won't sit here and repeat myself, over and over and over again.
Anybody on this forum who knows me and has read through my posts knows exactly what point I was making by saying what I said. If you took it the wrong way, I apologize. I don't apologize for my point of view, but I apologize if you took it the wrong way.
Its motivation not realisim and i dont think she is super rail thin ive watched house on tv and she doesnt look toothpick like i know ill never be that thin and im okay with that, its just a basis for creating motivation. I dont want to be HER. I just think shes pretty and went from there. Getcha turtle shell outta yah hiney mr ninja turtle.
