I think some people get insulted because most of us judge our looks by the people we can attract. It's human nature.

OP now you know how we women feel when a guy 10-40 years older than us hit on us. Welcome to our world
That happened to me last week. The guy was 14 years older than me.

But I still politely declined his offer.

Overweight people don't become overweight with healthy practices. Tell me what kind of workout routine you were on when you became overweight randomly? What kind of dieting practices were you following at that time?

Whether a man or woman be overweight, they can still have a preference for a fit person. Just the same as a fit person can have a preference for an overweight person.

If the same overweight person who felt he/she was "entitled" to be with a "fit" person lost weight would they then be ok in your eyes to date that person?

No matter a persons weight, and whether they gain/lose weight, they are actually entitled to have a preference. We all are. This is no different from preferring the person you date be black/white, tall/short, dark hair/light hair, etc.

Being attracted to whichever person is not thinking you are entitled to be attracted to them, it is having a preference or just the fact that you are attracted to them!

I don't think azzholes are entitled to talk to me, but they do it anyway.
i think you need to go back and read my post.

Don't expect more out of a person than what you have to offer. That's called being selfish.
So don't go out with them. I don't see why it's necessary to whine and complain about it on a message board.

I also don't see how you can assume what each one complains about. Do they stand there in the club talking to you about it?

I didn't become overweight randomly. I developed a medical condition that makes it easy to gain weight and hard to lose it.

I try to eat as healthily as possible but I am not perfect, nor should anybody ever claim to be. I have an incredibly busy schedule (I take 13 credits in college while working 36 hours a week), so sometimes my diet is not the first thing on my mind.

I am working hard on losing the weight but it is not easy. I'm assuming you've never suffered from a weight problem, so you can't possibly know how difficult it is unless you have.

Try to be a little more open-minded.

OK, I did. I think I answered appropriately. That same overweight woman can be attracted to a fit man. There may be no fit men attracted to an overweight woman there, and she may be upset about that.

It has nothing to do with what you can/or cannot offer a person or being selfish. It is preference. It also has nothing to do with entitlement. ( I saw you mention that in another post. I can find it if you like)

Just because a person is overweight does not mean that they should be attracted to an overweight person. Just the same, just because a person is fit, does not mean they have to be attracted to a fit person.

We are all individuals, and are able to make up our own minds about what we are attracted to without someone else telling us what we are allowed to be attracted to.

1. once the woman loses her looks, she needs to lower her standards.
2. a man judges a woman based off a looks.
3. if most women don't like fat men then what does that say about men.
4. regardless of what she likes she doesn't look good anymore. therefore she's worthless to men, unless she's just going to give him sex..
5. yes some men will date fat women. often men take what they can get. till they can get better, see how that works?
