Fat girls on the Bus

Main question: Confused

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) Confused


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...

ha, no, i watched a few of those utube videos with that filipino chick to gauge the time-constraints laugh out loud
laugh out loud I watch those. She basically does hair and make-up tips. I have to say I am surprised that the average male would watch those. Wink

hey OP I am so sorry I made you bold in the sephora thread.
Oh, speaking of that topic, why don't you mention here as well that you live at home and seem have no respect for your ma (who lets you live with her) since you diss her in a public forum like this one?
Hmm....Sephora and then EASY Mens Pop Hairstyles makes me start to see a different angle here.

OP I read the thread and found it amusing at times but something kept feeling a bit off. Let's just say you had me at the "feathered eyeshadow"line. But after reading some of your posts the word "bitter"kept coming to mind, so I have to ask, could it be that you are somehow jealous of these "fat girls"?
I mean jealous in that they clearly are able to use makeup, dress in stylish, feminine, clothing and basically be feminine out in public and it is acceptable in society, whereas it would not be as acceptable for you to do the same.
Do you see them as wasting an opportunity to offer the full package of what you think is a beautiful female and one that you think you would do better if you were given the chance?

i've since a while back switched to focus sets, but haven't had much luck..

and I have not mocked anyone.. all the fat girls have thus far taken a defensive position against me... I have not uttered any such negativity...

I have always argued simply that those girls could invest their time in workout vs the makeup.

I have NOT absolutely judged whether or not these girls are "good .. bad"

um why do think every chick that has been offended here by you is fat?

I think you really DO understand, more than many of these fat wolves barking at me.

I have no desire to "be" a girl, for obvious reasons, if i had to maintain my appearence to "that degree" I might go crazy !!

You're right that I am angry at the fact that many of these girls ARE wasting their opportunities; while I wouldn't necessarily want the job myself,, you're also correct that HELL YES i could do a better job, first i would go jogging for 20mins.

I also have criticism for guys too,, but lets not go into that.

Bottom line,, if it is a girl's profession to be vain and live in vanity, THEN DO IT RIGHT!!nod

Maybe they have a health issue that makes it difficult for them to lose weight, maybe they think they're pretty and are happy and confident about their weight, maybe they have a husband or boyfriend who thinks they're perfect just the way they are (not every man likes skinny girls), maybe they don't let their weight define them.
Oh puhleez, we live in such a politically correct world these days. I hate that we try to legitimize everything. People would not get off their @ss and join the gym, have no self-control while eating junk food, and the sheer gluttony will be labeled as a psychological issue or something....oh look at me....I am suffering from junk food eating disorder.....etc. I am sure all 22 girls didn't have "health issues". Sure, some might, but not everyone of the hundreds of morbidly obese people I see on the bus/train/street. Many can use a little self-control.

And people that smoke, drink, take drugs, cheat on their spouse, yell at their kids, steal, cheat, lie, goof off at work, fail to complete their education, or put down other people for superficial reasons can all use a little self-control to fix their problems.

It's too bad that everyone doesn't have to walk around with their personal shortcomings written on their shirt. That would make the world an even playing field for overweight people.

I am equally bothered about smoking, drugs, fail to complete (public univ.) education etc. if I am cross-subsidizing it. I pay my health insurance premium and never visit the doctor. That money goes for the treatment of diseases which people choose themselves. That bothers me. For the rest, I don't care.

All I was saying is just don't be so quick to judge.

I even gave other reasons, but you chose to single out one of them. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
