When did skinny as a rail, I can see your ribs, you look like a starving Ethiopian become the thing men want? Back in the mid-evil times large men were very desirable because it meant that they had alot of money.
“Man, that guys is like five-hundred pounds, he must have so much money to be able to look that fat, do you know if he’s seeing anyone?”, Marie Antoinette asked. The women who were large in stature were also seen as a great catch, because their women bearing hips were so big that could produce lots of kids.

”Look at that shorty”, King George would say, “I’m gonna take her to the joust next week and get her knocked up so she can pop out some lads to sit on my thrown, plow the fields and lead my troops into battle”. That’s a direct quote.
But I guess that’s pretty bad too. The mid-evil women want a man for his money. The mid-evil men want a woman for her child-bearing properties and financial and political gain. Society promoted large men and women while the skinny’s were cast aside being told, sorry not fat enough, call me when you order a big mac.
Today, Brock the frat boy with his sculpted abs and the Audi his daddy paid for, combs the savanna at the school his dad is a legacy at, looking for the ideal, atheistically pleasing female. No way Brock would every date a female based on her brains, personality or the way she treats him, no way! It’s the same reason why Brock doesn’t drive a Prius. If he had a smart girl and a Prius his frat brothers would pick on him, he wouldn’t be cool…but he’d be smart!
Girls don’t get a pass on this one either. Girls hate it when another chick has better shoes or a better purse or better hair. They feel the same way when Suzie down the block has the star quarterback and Jane has the “just” 2nd string running back. Last year my friend Brian broke up with a girl he didn’t feel the same connection with anymore and she said, “Yeah, you’re not really in the financial position I would hope for and your way to skinny.” Really? You said that out loud? So people can hear you?
So I guess mate selection has always been about looks status and money.
Can you blame men and women for starving themselves, doing steroids, buying things they can’t afford and going to any length to appear ideal? No, you can’t! It’s all over TV, Billboards, everywhere! Women are made to feel they have to be super skinny to find a guy and be happy! Guys are made to feel like they need to be a six-figure lawyer with abs of granite to find a girl and be happy….
We can’t blame them, but we can stop feeding the delusion machine and we can start talking. Talking about how happiness is internal, beauty comes from the inside. The size of a person’s heart is more important than the size of their stomach or thighs. A persons weight should be measured in the amount of times they make you laugh, smile or cry. Happiness is not something that can be bought it’s an exclusive long sought after emotion that there is no quick fix for. That is why it’s so hard to find, It should be. But you don’t find it in a bank account, or looks. It’s found deep inside a person’s heart. Happiness, love and beauty are found in the heart and there… one size fits all.
