Fat girls on the Bus

Main question: 
How is it that they can commit to time consuming make-up regimen, and expensive outer acessories, but not to jogging 20mins a day, (which is arguable all one needs, as long as there's consistency)
On the bus today:
Saw around, counted, 22x "big" girls while riding the campus buses between classes.
I notice many of them have very complicated make up scenarios,, foundation, mascara, liner, shadow (feathered), toner, bronzer, nude lip, etc etc..
Also, many wear a decent amount of middle brand clothing, lots of BR mainly, they're relatively young after-all.
SO, all of this cost money and time, the make up well exceeds 20 mins in most of these cases,
And their cloths are obviously not cheap either...

clearly the paint is ment to Gather attention vs their normal state of invisibility..
But, my point is,, their investment is definately in the wrong place
But emotional satiety is easily achievable with ANYONE... which is why few truely shallow people exist. Most are merely looking for the "whole package,"
And what i say about the math and beauty is common truth.
Maybe if you just jogged 20 minutes a day (despite the fact that it's bad for your joints and exercise bras don't fit/support larger women) all of your problems would magically disappear.
Psych 101. Women will often gain weight so as not to draw attention from the opposite sex. (Note: this does not work with black men.) They will then still try to feel good about themselves and/or attempt to conform to societal expectations by wearing nice clothes or makeup.
Philosophy 101. The more enlightened you become the more capable you are of seeing goodness, truth, and beauty, in others. You can debate that with Socrates when you get to the other side if there is one.
Back off. She asked ME to make out.
there is PLENTY to go around

My 5 year old likes iron man. He has the robot figure.
i might as well throw dorky in there, so, it's not a robot, it's an exo-suit...
more cushion,, no, it's not in
I did ask why they would invest the SAME amount of time into something that does not work for them.
and everything in sociology, psychology and physiology would agree that MAKE UP does NOT treat the underlying problem.
Not "in" with you. And maybe the people around you. It might be helpful if you realize that your small circle isn't the world.
You gave two options based on a TON of underlying assumptions. (Pun intended) It's like the age old question: are you still beating your girlfriend?
(extra points if you know the one word answer to this without googling it.)
Here again, you give an answer that has some truth... but has nothing to do with my point. You want to know why someone would spend all that time with makeup and clothes and not put it into exercise. As if it's simple for everyone to just get out there and exercise.
I can tell you as a coach, half the people you meet don't have the first clue how to start. The other half are scared to death of pain. And the OTHER half actually can't get out and do it. Just because you can do a thing - with your 3% body fat and lucky metabolism - doesn't mean everyone can. You could probably sit on a couch for a year and still get up and do more exercise, more easily, than any of the girls you saw on that bus. That doesn't mean your special in the sense that you have anything mentally over those girls. It means your special because your pituitary or heart or something else is kinder to you in that department. Gain 100 pounds and keep it for a year. Then get out and work it off. Then maybe you can comment on how it's just easier to get out and exercise.

Maybe it's a self defense mechanism. Maybe it's just plain old humor. You do know you aren't fat, right? No, you aren't tiny, but certainly not fat either.
Ok, on with the thread : whee:

And yes, it is blurry lines. Not much in life is black and white.
