40 Reasons to Eat (Part 4)

16. Only fat people are attracted to fat people. Do you want pigs to like you because you are one of them? - Wow, this writer is starting to become kind of rude.  Incredibly rude, actually.  Something this rude doesn't even deserve a clever retort.  I guess I'll just give you a picture instead.

17. Anyone can have 'inner beauty,' but few can earn real beauty, inside as well as out. - This is warped.  This is the opposite of what little girls are taught.  Personally, I know very few girls who have achieved inner beauty.  Not just anyone can have it.  When you have true inner beauty, it literally shines through your smile and makes you beautiful, no matter how much you weigh.  On the other hand, can you think of that really pretty girl at your high school who has a gorgeous face and body... but is the biggest jerk in the world?  Now imagine a friend of yours or someone you admire who is sweet and kind and very pretty.  Which of those would you rather be compared to?

18. You'll be able to move as quietly and skillfully as a spider. - There's your inspiration, girls.  Lose weight and you'll look like a spider.  What a cute little guy. (I'm one of those people who fear spiders more than death.  And you want to be like this?!)

19. Only thin people are graceful. - I wish I could find this video, but I was watching the dance show, So You Think You Can Dance, one day during an episode of auditions.  A dancer who was overweight came and danced beautifully.  She made everyone cry.  She was very graceful.

20. If you slap a fat person, you can see a shockwave ripple over their skin. That's disgusting. - You would have to be pretty fat for that to actually happen.  But honestly, are you planning to be slapped any time soon?  Is getting slapped something you look forward to?  Maybe if you had a little bit of fat, people would refrain from slapping you.  Yikes.
