putting skinny folks down to make over weight folks feel good is not right, imho. build everyone up. I merely enhanced the traits of fuller bodies, if anyone, skinny or not, felt bad, is their own choice to feel so. I did not "put them down", they did it to themselves by feeling negative about themselves. I am tired of everyone feeling "hurt" because someone said boo. You, (or anyone else for that matter), choose to feel bad because of x or y or whatever... that's their problem not mine. In any event, don't make a big fuzz about it, since... I will still enjoy wine, fuller bodies and song. if you do not like it... Well submit your complaint in triplicate to the Vatican, the EPA, IRS or any other organization that suits you. being over weight does increase the risk of various illnesses and should be avoided if one's genetics and knowledge provides a way. Rubbish. It depends on many things, not strictly on body weight. (and I am not neither fat, overweight, nor skinny). And don't preach to me on the benefits of "healthy" eating (whatever that may mean). Once again it depends on many things. I just came back from a place where they eat like... well, Romans and they are as fit as oxen. Ah yes and they drink wine as if it was going out of style, and live as long, or longer, than the next health-nut. I would rather eat and drink real food & wine than the Mc Caca stuff dispensed in so called "fast-food" chains. Gee if they got Phillip Morris for selling Cancer Tacos, they ought to do the same with the likes of McCaca, Taco Hell, and the rest of the poison selling "fast-food" pirates.
