I used to be heavy...I find it amazing that making fun of fat people is still an acceptable form of prejudice in this country.
Be thankful you are thin...it takes hard work for some of us to get that way.
I'm very sorry if I offended anyone with that picture. I wasn't making fun of the lady and her weight, I just found it amazing that she had the self esteem to have a picture taken wearing the red negligee. I meant what I said, "If you've got it, flaunt it!" I respect the lady for having enough chutzpah to show off her sexuality, despite her weight. Many women, thin, heavy or in between would never have the self esteem to take a picture of their own body and post it online.
Again, if you were offended, I am sorry. By the way, before the cancer, I was heavy myself so I know how hard it is to lose weight but let me tell you, when I was 90 pounds, I couldn't do a damned thing to gain weight. I was as uncomfortable with my weight (too skinny) as any heavy woman would be with her weight.
None of us are totally happy with our own bodies and that's a shame. That's why I was so impressed with the Lady in Red!

Yes...I guess I was offended at first...but it was a knee jerk reaction.
I too applaud any woman who is comfortable enough within herself to be proud of who she is. The world would like us to think we shouldn't be happy unless we are blond, big boobed, and a size 2. I am 42 and have just recently become comfortable in my own skin...regardless of what anyone else might think. I work out...but it's for my health at my age. Anyway...no harm no foul...I appreciate your comment though.

Tracie,
Isn't it amazing how we become more comfortable with our own bodies as our bodies age? The older I get, the more open I am and the less I try to hide my body. When I was very young and in MUCH better shape than I am now, I was extremely uncomfortable with my body to the point where I wanted the lights out if I was taking my clothes off. Now, here I am, almost 50 years old and I just let it all hang out. Good for you for being so "comfortable in your own skin"!!!

I'd love to have boobs. Can we take some fat from my ass and migrate it northwards? Just a thought.
I used to think that pretty women had a better time of life, and then it occurred to me that pretty women are constantly sexualized by every man they ever meet.
So it's better to be myself (aka the brown mouse) and actually employ my brain than have men only look at me as a piece of meat.
I'm not sure why anyone should feel ashamed or have no self-esteem based on what they weigh. My worth as a human being is in no way related to my weight nor what size I wear. Sexuality isn't about how good you look in a negligee, it's about how you feel in your heart...it's about confidence. I'd imagine there is someone who loves her exactly as she is, which makes her feel beautiful enough to be comfortable to pose for pictures like that.
I am fat. Always have been. I've recently lost 60 lbs and I have more to lose, but, it's not because I feel bad about myself. I just want to lose weight now that my metabolic disorder has been diagnosed, so I can be healthier. Clearly, self-esteem has never been an issue for me, but it's hard for me to understand why we, as women, would even be shocked that someone who isn't thin would feel good about herself. You're right...there are many thin women who wouldn't pose in an outfit like that because someone along the way has made them feel "less than" due to weight. How sad is that?
To each his/her own! Wish I could be that comfortable with my body- for me the Meg equation of age hasn't worked but I work on it.
I dropped about 35 pounds a few years ago and have for the most part kept it off. I think it can be liberating be able to wear anything and not have to worry about looking fat in it. Walking up the stairs two at a time instead of dragging my ass up and avoiding diabetes 2. Self esteem shouldnt be how you look but how you feel
