When I first was using online dating services (eHarmony about eight years ago), there were a good number of attractive, normal-sized girls. In 2020, almost every girl on any of the apps (Hinge, etc.) are Oreo Cakesters (my euphemistic term for fat girls).<br /><br />I am dating a very sweet girl now. She is a bigger girl, but she doesn't match that with a bad personality. She's also following my example on portion control and calorie counting, and she is already losing weight effectively. I was a chubster until I hit 26, and shed around 110 pounds over the course of 2011.<br /><br />One final note: I found your blog via photog's blog, www.orionscoldfire.com.

Especially young women, but even the older generation. TOday's women are MUCH fatter than they were 30 or 40 years ago. And we had nearly as much food then as we do now. <br /><br />Just sayin'B https://www.blogger.com/profile/10586046436233366155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-50709504824830642342020-09-14T09:51:34.223-07:002020-09-14T09:51:34.223-07:00Absolutely right; however, one other thing that...Absolutely right; however, one other thing that's changed is that jobs aren't as demanding as they used to be; tapping buttons on a computer or pushing a hoover around can't compare to hwavibg spuds (potatoes) or working a mangle. It'd be interesting to correlate the rise of obesity (for both genders) with how mechanisation made thinsceasier, especially in the latter part of the 20th century.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
