A few years ago, I was in a black barbershop, and talk, as usual, turned to women.
The guys were making comments on the women walking past, that they thought were attractive. All the girls/women, had figures of the Jamaican female 4x100m sprint team. I was the lone voice that piped up, "Don't any of you guys like big girls"?
The chorus of derision was instant, but I stuck to my guns. I said, "haven't any of you guys never seen a beautiful big girl"? This was met with a pause, before a couple of guys admitted that they had known really beautiful big girls, but they were afraid of approaching them.
Fear of big people - its irrational.
Well, maybe a bit rational - as I'd kick a skinny guy's butt all the way down the length of Oxford Street, and back again. I'd rather be "lardy" then "wimpish".
