Best Fat Paysites

Someone has said something about ghetto my weight exactly TWICE. Of course, ghetto I AM only about 180-185 pounds at 5'6", active & solid, & not seen as particularly fat around here. I know a lot of fat men of various sizes of fat, some in my own family, & generally they seem pretty relaxed about being fat, &, if they like themselves as people, they are comfortable in their bodies. When it is hot in the summer, you are as likely to see fat men wandering around with no shirts or wearing shorts as thin men here. Up here, I think that more men are still raised to see their bodies as part of them, as something instrumental, which allows them to live their lives, to walk, to work, to play sports, hug their children, & make love, whereas women seem to be socialized to see their bodies as something separate, valued as an ornament, something to be prettied up, & pruned & beaten into an acceptable shape. |

| but the author interviews problems seem to start at much higher weights for men than author interviews for women. I also think that it makes a difference where you live, & what kind of a culture you are part of. I live in Maine, total population 1.3 million, a state largely of fisherman, farmers, people author interviews who are good people but must fight to make a living, a place with a high cost of living & low per capita income, & a lot of poverty, alcoholism, domestic violence, incest, etc. We do have some people with a lot of education & money, but mostly artistic or professional people from "away" who moved here because Maine is beautiful, quaint, more peaceful & lower in crime than the big cities, & we tend to mind our own business & have a respect for rugged individuals, so they can be left alone. There is not a lot of loud fatphobia in the general public, &, by percentage of the total population, we have a lot of fat people. I have lived in Bangor for over 31 years, & I go out every day walking the streets. |
