MORE TO LOVE! (the plus sized Bachelor show) (Lost, shows, weight)

I cant remember which one she was because I turned the channel. But I just did a quick search and found these three to be the most attractive of the bunch. Hmmmm......... they all are from California, I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

The girl in the last picture seems to be the most attractive of all of them. She's definitely "tappable".

I would add that weight doesn't really mean a thing either because muscle weights more than fat.

Yeah, but the women on this show are all more fat than muscle. Its quite obvious if you've seen the show.

While I think it is totally tacky that they posted height and weight of each person each time they spoke, I also think some of the girls are lie-telling with their weights. As in, underquoting. Not that I think the producers should have had them each weigh in like boxers before a fight, but some of them were like - no way is she 170!

What's sadder than the show displaying the girls in a bad light, is the fact that over 50% of our country is overweight or obese.

This is what I'm thinking too. All you have to do is take a look at these ladies to see that they are indeed, overweight.

beautiful people always ask that question, see long line outside the door of hopeful replacements.

All I know is this show is not going to have me rooting and crying for its contestants like I do while watching "Biggest Loser". This show is just exploiting the difficulties overweight women have with not only finding a good man, but ANY man. There'll be a lot of the obligatory "I just hope to find a man who loves me for me and see's past my fatness, because inside, Im a beautiful person" scenes of the rejected women as they walk off and into the sunset with tears in their eyes when they get kicked off the show.

This show will be the biggest in the history of American television. (No pun intended).

No it wont. Are you kidding?

I am assuming you are serious, because you cant intend that to be a joke. If so, most unfunny joke in history.

The only issue I have with this show is everyone saying it's about "normal-sized" women. It's not a good image to promote fatness as being okay. It's great the big people on the show are comfortable with themselves but let's not lie and pretend it's a healthful life choice to be overweight.

And before someone jumps all over me and says "But but but...you're anti-fatty and it's not healthful to be too thin either..." yeah, you're right too thin is not healthful either. But we should promote a GOOD HEALTHY weight range, not something on either end of the scale.
